Suitability of felt traps to monitor oviposition by the cabbage maggot (Diptera: AnthomyiidaeC) [PDF]
, 2002 The effectiveness of felt egg traps to detect oviposition by the cabbage maggot, Delia radicum (L.), was studied under field conditions for cabbage, Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata L. (Brassicaceae), and rutabaga, Brassica napus L. var.

The Effect of Oviposition on Fertility in Chickens
Poultry Science, 1978 The fertility between the first two eggs of a clutch and between eggs oviposited by the same bird on the same day were compared to determine the effect of oviposition on fertility. No differences in fertility were observed indicating that factors other than oviposition are involved in the mechanism of spermatozoal release and fertility in chickens.

Dispersal of _Aedes aegypti_: field study in temperate areas and statistical approach [PDF]
, 2012 We studied the dispersion of _Aedes aegypti_ during egg laying in natural conditions. Two independent experiments involving mosquitoes dispersing from urbanization towards adjacent un-urbanized areas were carried out and analyzed in statistical terms. We

Oviposition deterrence is likely an effect, not a mechanism, in the leaf-bettle Chrysophtharta Bimaculata (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) [PDF]
, 2005 Oviposition deterrence is common in many insects as an evolutionary mechanism to reduce subsequent larval competition. We investigated a suspected case of oviposition deterrence by the paropsine chrysomelid, Chrysophtharta bimaculata.

Modelling the phenology of the grapevine leafhopper Erasmoneura vulnerata
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.This study developed and validated a phenological population dynamics model for Erasmoneura vulnerata, integrating field monitoring and literature data to reproduce observed seasonal patterns across multiple sites. Abstract BACKGROUND Erasmoneura vulnerata (Fitch) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is an invasive Nearctic leafhopper that has become a pest of ...

Follicular Control of Oviposition in the Hen
Poultry Science, 1990 Ligation of the largest preovulatory follicle (F1) or the second largest preovulatory follicle (F2) delayed terminal oviposition for at least 2 h. Ligation of the fourth or fifth largest preovulatory follicle had no effect on the time of terminal oviposition.

, 1982 The major component of the oviposition attractant pheromone from the apical droplet of eggs of the mosquito Culex pipiens fatigans is shown by g.l.c.–mass spectrometry, microchemical methods, and synthesis to be erythro-6-acetoxy-5-hexadecanolide (1 ...

Take flight: predation risk induces wing polyphenism and dispersal in the aphid Myzus persicae
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Predator risk above a critical density induces winged morphs in Myzus persicae, promoting dispersal and reducing predation compared with wingless aphids. This density‐dependent phenotypic plasticity enhances survival but may compromise biological control by facilitating aphid dispersal.
