Vibrational noise disrupts Nezara viridula communication, irrespective of spectral overlap [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Insects rely on substrate vibrations in numerous intra- and interspecific interactions. Yet, our knowledge of noise impact in this modality lags behind that in audition, limiting our understanding of how anthropogenic noise affects insect communities ...

Ovary Development and Maturation in Nezara viridula (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) [PDF]

open access: yesNeotropical Entomology, 2011
Ovary development and maturation of Nezara viridula (L.) were evaluated by examining ovariole morphology and the alterations in the biochemical (protein synthesis related to reproduction) composition of the hemolymph. Quantitative and qualitative protein

Evidence of stochastic resonance in the mating behavior of Nezara viridula (L.) [PDF]

open access: yesEur. Phys. J. B, Vol. 65, 452 - 458 (2008), 2008
We investigate the role of the noise in the mating behavior between individuals of Nezara viridula (L.), by analyzing the temporal and spectral features of the non-pulsed type female calling song emitted by single individuals. We have measured the threshold level for the signal detection, by performing experiments with the calling signal at different ...

Development, Survival and Reproduction of Nezara viridula (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in Sesame Cultivars and Implications for the Management [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
Sesame, an oilseed plant with multiple applications, is susceptible to infestations by the stink bug Nezara viridula (Linnaeus, 1758) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae). This pest suctions the seeds of this plant and injects toxins into them.

Nanocarrier mediated delivery of insecticides into tarsi enhances stink bug mortality [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Current delivery practices for insecticide active ingredients are inefficient with only a fraction reaching their intended target. Herein, we developed carbon dot based nanocarriers with molecular baskets (γ-cyclodextrin) that enhance the delivery of ...

Infestation of Broad Bean (Vicia faba) by the Green Stink Bug (Nezara viridula) Decreases Shoot Abscisic Acid Contents under Well-Watered and Drought Conditions [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The response of broad bean (Vicia faba) plants to water stress alone and in combination with green stink bug (Nezara viridula) infestation was investigated through measurement of: (1) leaf gas exchange; (2) plant hormone titres of abscisic acid (ABA) and
