Long‐term population dynamics of western tent caterpillars: History, trends and causes of cycles
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 10, Page 1922-1934, October 2025.The length and in‐depth nature of this population study make it unique. It represents perhaps the most extensive monitoring of viral infection in a wild insect population. We have used laboratory and field experiments to test many hypotheses about mechanisms that potentially impact the dynamics of this cyclic species.

PROSPEK PENGEMBANGAN BIOINSEKTISIDA NUCLEOPOLYHEDROVIRUS (NPV) UNTUK PENGENDALIAN / Prospect of Development of Nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) Bioinsecticide Against [PDF]
Perspektif, 2017 Chemical insecticides for estate crop pests control are ineffective, impractical, expensive, and causing environmental pollutions. The entomopathogenic virus (EPV) mainly the nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) can be developed as an effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly biopesticide.

A Role for the Anti-Viral Host Defense Mechanism in the Phylogenetic Divergence in Baculovirus Evolution. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Although phylogenic analysis often suggests co-evolutionary relationships between viruses and host organisms, few examples have been reported at the microevolutionary level. Here, we show a possible example in which a species-specific anti-viral response

Insects, 2022 In Bombyx mori, as an important economic insect, it was first found that some strains were completely refractory to infection with Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) through intrahemocelical injection; whereas almost all natural strains

Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications
Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1495-1523, October 2025.The connections between biotic and abiotic stress affecting mass‐reared dipteran insects and the associated stress and immunological responses. Numbers indicate the order in which the topics are discussed in this review. Abstract Stress may be viewed as the disturbance of homeostasis of an organism.

What do we (need to) know about low-susceptibility of codling moth against Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV)! [PDF]
, 2006 In 2005, the first codling moth (CM) populations with a reduced susceptibility to Cydia pomonella granulovi-rus (CpGV) products have been observed. This phenomenon might be an indicator of an emerging resis-tance of CM to CpGV. This paper summarizes some

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 20, October 2025.ABSTRACT Many ant species show dramatic shifts in behaviour when infected with parasites, but the molecular basis of these behavioural changes is not well understood. An example is the wood ant, Formica aserva, which serves as an intermediate host for the lancet liver fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum.

Promising Prodiginins Biological Activities
Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 9, September 2025.ABSTRACT Prodiginins are a large family of at least 34 pyrrolic compounds, including the well‐studied red pigment prodigiosin. Prodiginins are produced by several microorganisms displaying broad biological activities, including antimicrobial, antiviral, antiparasitic, antiproliferative, and immunosuppressive activities.
