Cross‐continental variation of herbivore resistance in a global plant invader

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 7, July 2025.
While successful plant invasions often occur in novel environments, invasive species usually occupy broad niches within their native and introduced ranges. A better understanding of the process of invasion therefore requires a wide sampling of ranges, and a good knowledge of introduction history.

Influence of Host Species, Location, and Aphid Prey on Microbial Diversity and Community Dynamics of Aphidophagous Ladybird Beetles in Guangxi, China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.
Analyses of the 16S rRNA amplicons of several ladybirds and their aphid prey from various locations in Guangxi, China reveal the plasticity of microbial abundance in aphidophagous ladybirds across different ladybird species and locations. Additionally, aphid symbionts are sporadically detected in the corresponding predator ladybirds, indicating their ...

High‐throughput molecular gut content analysis of aphids identifies plants relevant for potato virus Y epidemiology

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 1489-1502, October 2024.
For the first time, high‐throughput molecular gut content analysis was used to characterize host use patterns of aphid vector species of potato virus Y (PVY). DNA was extracted from individual aphid vectors, PCRs were run using trnF and ITS2 primers, PCR products were sequenced using the Pacific Biosciences platform, and sequences were blasted on NCBI ...
