Plant diversification impact on the oviposition response of a predatory bug in a laboratory set‐up

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Orius majusculus laid nearly twice as many eggs in cages with two different crop species compared with a single species. Depending on crop species, O. majusculus utilised different plant structures for oviposition. Crop diversification supports reproduction, and thus, is likely to have a positive effect on O.

Effects of Phytoplasma Infection on Aster Leafhopper (Macrosteles quadrilineatus) Settling Behavior and Development on Brassica napus

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Aster yellows phytoplasma (AYp) infection alters host plant preference in aster leafhoppers (Macrosteles quadrilineatus), with infected vectors showing a significant preference for AYp‐infected canola (Brassica napus) early in the infection period. However, this preference fades as infection progresses. Despite early attraction, B.

Spatial prediction of Melanoplus differentialis using an ensemble of multiple species distribution models

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Ensemble model using multiple niche models was constructed to globally identify regions at high risk for Melanoplus differentialis distribution under climate change. The occurrence possibility was found to be particularly high in its native region, the United States, and high invasion risk was identified in non‐native regions, particularly in Europe ...
