Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

Using DNA metabarcoding, this study investigates pollen transported by syrphids (Syrphidae) in the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park and agricultural sites in Northern Italy. The analysis reveals a high diversity of visited plant taxa, including previously undocumented plant–pollinator interactions.

Tree Tobacco Extract (Nicotiana glauca) as a Plithogenic Bioinsecticide Alternative for Controlling Fruit Fly (Drosophila immigrans) using n-SuperHyperGraphs [PDF]
Concern regarding the negative effects of synthetic pesticides has driven the development of bioinsecticides as sustainable alternatives. Consequently, Nicotiana glauca has gained prominence for its insecticidal properties due to phytochemical compounds ...

Prey Range and Voracity of Main Insect Natural Enemies of Pests in Corsican Clementine Orchards
To assess the biocontrol potential on the main arthropod pests of clementine orchards in Corsica, laboratory experiments were carried out using five potential predators. Their prey range and voracity were tested on three pest species. Then, a global predation rate index was calculated at the scale of the entire community of insect predators.

Some effects of virus infection on leaf water contents of nicotiana species
Infection with tobacco mosaic virus decreases the water content which detached tobacco leaves attain when kept for 20 hr. in conditions of minimum water stress, and does so more when the plants are kept in light before inoculation than when they are kept

This study investigates the modularity of encapsulin—a protein nanoparticle—by simultaneously inserting up to four distinct Salmonella epitopes within the encapsulin subunit. The encapsulin variants were transiently expressed in plants where they assembled into nanoparticles; however, their accumulation and stability varied depending on the ...

A Peroxidase Gene Promoter Induced by Phytopathogens and Methyl Jasmonate in Transgenic Plants
The expression of two closely related peroxidase isogenes, Shpx6a and Shpx6b, of the legume Stylosanthes humilis was studied using isogene-specific reverse transcriptase PCR techniques.
