Long‐term population dynamics of western tent caterpillars: History, trends and causes of cycles

open access: yesJournal 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.

Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications

open access: yesInsect 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.

Gene Expression Associated With Behaviour Manipulation in Wood Ants Infected With Larval Lancet Fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum

open access: yesMolecular 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

open access: yesChemistry &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.

Establishment of a cell line from Chrysodeixis chalcites permissive for Chrysodeixis chalcites and Trichoplusia ni nucleopolyhedrovirus

open access: yes, 2010
A new cell line was established from the embryos of the insect Chrysodeixis chalcites (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Plusiinae). The cell line contains several morphologically different cell types and was distinguished from three other lepidopteran cell lines ...

Recommended dosage and environmental risk assessment of insecticides registered on main pyralid borers in China

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2025.
Based on the registration information of insecticides for controlling the main pyralid borers, active ingredients with high dosages were identified and analyzed based on formulations and target pests. Additionally, the environmental risks on honeybees were assessed.

The infectivity and host range of Orgyia anartoides nucleopolyhedrovirus

open access: yes, 2010
The painted apple moth (PAM), Teia anartoides (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae) made a recent incursion into New Zealand. A nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV), Orgyia anartoides NPV (OranNPV), originally isolated from PAM in Australia, was tested for its ...

Impact of a nucleopolyhedrovirus bioinsecticide and selected synthetic insecticides on the abundance of insect natural enemies on maize in Southern Mexico

open access: yes, 2003
The impact of commonly used organophosphate (chlorpyrifos, methamidophos), carbamate (carbaryl), and pyrethroid (cypermethrin) insecticides on insect natural enemies was compared with that of a nucleopolyhedrovirus (Baculoviridae) of Spodoptera ...

Molecular characterization of the Neodiprion abietis nucleopolyhedrovirus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Baculoviruses are a large, diverse family of viruses that are pathogenic for Arthropods, particularly members or the Order Insecta. These viruses are comprised of large enveloped rod-shaped capsids that contain supercoiled, double-stranded DNA genomes ...

comparative pathogenesis of the Helicoverpa armigera single-nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus in noctuid hosts of different susceptibility

open access: yes, 2003
A new cell line was established from the embryos of the insect Chrysodeixis chalcites (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Plusiinae). The cell line contains several morphologically different cell types and was distinguished from three other lepidopteran cell lines ...
