Realized Genetic Gain in Spittlebugs (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) Resistance and Tolerance at CIAT's Interspecific Urochloa Breeding Programme

open access: yesPlant Breeding, Volume 145, Issue 1, Page 132-141, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Interspecific Urochloa recurrent selection breeding programme at CIAT aims to integrate desirable traits such as resistance and tolerance to spittlebugs (Hemiptera: Cercopidae), the main insect pest affecting these pastures in Latin America.

Plant Virus‐Induced Inheritable Apoptosis Drives Reproductive Costs in Female Insect Vectors to Balance Viral Biparental Transmission

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, 27 January 2026.
Rice gall dwarf virus (RGDV), transmitted biparentally by leafhopper vector to their offspring, exploits the capsid protein to induce inheritable ovarian apoptosis via insulin‐driven PI3K/AKT/FoxO signaling axis. This mechanism enhances infection but reduces female reproductive fitness, causing inefficient maternal transmission.

RNAi Regulator C3PO Promotes Arbovirus Infection in Insect Vectors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
RNA interference (RNAi) is vital for eukaryotes to defend against virus infection. The C3PO complex takes part in RNAi but its role in regulating viral infection remains unclear. This work finds that insect C3PO facilitates arbovirus replication by degrading precursors of miRNAs, especially miR‐971‐3p.

Phenotypic Matching Without Genetic Correlation in Dimorphic Legs of Bulb Mites

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We tested for male dimorphism in the weapon‐like third legs and putative compensatory fourth legs of the bulb mite Rhizoglyphus echinopus. Although males with thicker third legs tended to have longer fourth legs, neither trait predicted fighting success, and the correlation was phenotypic but not genetic.
