Evidence for Female Autodetection and Plasticity of Pheromone Response in Helicoverpa zea
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 11, Page 1236-1246, November 2025.This study addressed detection and behavioral responses to conspecific pheromones (autodetection) in female corn earworm moths, Helicoverpa zea (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). Electroantennogram recordings showed that prior exposure to pheromones significantly decreased antennal sensitivity.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.We present a novel method for extracting eDNA from whole bird nests and a LNA blocking oligonucleotide designed to reduce metabarcoding reads from nest building sparrows. Metabarcoding of 22 nests from a montane sagebrush steppe ecosystem detected 126 species, primarily insects, including putative diet items, ectoparasites, and confirmed nest predators.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.This study uses a historical invasion by Medicago polymorpha (Burr Clover) to test the predictive power of the Shifting Defense Hypothesis (SDH) by investigating variation in plant defenses to herbivorous insects. We compared the feeding preferences of a generalist and a specialist herbivore on native and invasive populations of M.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.In this study, we investigated how artificial light at night (ALAN) affects larval development in the invasive spongy moth. Caterpillars exposed to 3700 K LED light reached higher body masses than those under 2200 K or darkness, suggesting ALAN may enhance growth and influence population dynamics.

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 10, Page 7188-7196, October 2025.Number of infested fruits, larval entries and F1 adults decreased as sterile males increased. Control cages had higher fecundity and fertility compared to treatment cages. Release ratios, 40:1 and 60:1 can enhance the efficacy of SIT. Abstract BACKGROUND Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is a significant pest of citrus in ...
