Urea formation in the green vegetable bug Nezara viridula

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1972
Abstract Urea comprises 7·7 per cent of the total nitrogen excretion of Nezara viridula. The bug is capable of oxidizing uric acid to allantoin, which is also excreted, but the uricolytic pathway is not active beyond this point. Of the enzymes of the ornithine cycle, arginase and ornithine transcarbamalase are active, but there is no evidence for the

Female competition for availability of males in insects: the Nezara viridula (Linnaeus, 1758) model

Insect Science, 2020
Multimodal communication in solitary stinkbugs enables them to meet, mate and copulate. Many plant‐dwelling species exchange information during the calling phase of mating behavior using substrate‐borne vibratory signals.

Johnston's organ and central organ in Nezara viridula (L.) (Heteroptera, Pentatomidae)

Tissue and Cell, 1996
The fine structure of Johnston's organ and central organ in Nezara viridula (Heteroptera, Pentatomidae) is described. Johnston's organ consists of 45 scolopidia distributed around the periphery of the distal part of the third antennal segment (distal pedicellite).

Source of an egg kairomone for Trissolcus basalis, a parasitoid of Nezara viridula

Physiological Entomology, 1993
Abstract. The eggs of the southern green stink bug, Nezara viridula (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), are successfully attacked by Trissolcus basalis (Woll.) (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) and are recognized as hosts by a secretion applied to the egg chorion.

Development of efficient RNAi in Nezara viridula for use in insecticide target discovery.

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 2019
Stink bugs are an emerging pest in many regions of the world but their molecular biology is still poorly understood. While several transcriptomes are available, the lack of validated gene manipulation tools like RNA interference (RNAi) in species such as

A Case of Dermatitis due to Nezara viridula

Nishi Nihon Hifuka, 2004
10歳, 男児。胸に飛んできたカメムシを潰し体液が付着。30分後には疼痛を伴う紅斑を生じた。患者の持参した虫体からミナミアオカメムシと同定。カメムシ皮膚炎と考えた。患者がパッチテストを拒否したため, 患者の持参した虫を細切して健常人8人にパッチテストを行った。1名が48, 72時間後ともに (+) の反応を示した。この被験者はかつて腕にカメムシが這った跡に線状の紅斑を生じたことがあるということだった。この被験者ではアレルギー性の反応を生じたと考えた。その後, 筆者は同種の虫を採取し, 生きたまま左前腕部に圧抵したところ紅斑を生じた。一次刺激性接触皮膚炎と考えた。通常カメムシによる皮膚炎では一次刺激性のものが多いが, アレルギー性接触皮膚炎も生じうるものと考えた。

The composition of the scent of the green vegetable bug, Nezara viridula

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1965
By a combination of gas, paper and thin-layer chromatography, and infra-red, visible, ultra-violet, mass and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, twenty components were detected and investigated in the secretion collected directly from the scent storage reservoir of Nezara viridula .

Prevalence of a Trypanosomatid in the Southern Green Stink Bug, Nezara viridula

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 2000
ABSTRACT. The southern green stink bug, Nezara viridula (L.), and certain of its host plants were examined to determine the prevalence and biological characteristics of an intestinal trypanosomatid. Promastigotes with short (≤ 17.5 μm excluding flagellum) and long forms (≥ 25.0 μm) usually infected < 50% of the bugs before August and > 50 ...
