Analysis of a negative binomial host–parasitoid model with two maturation delays and impulsive resource input

open access: yesJournal of Biological Dynamics, 2019
To study the interaction of parasitoids and their insect hosts in laboratory environment, we propose a mathematical model incorporating impulsive resource inputs, stage-structure, maturation times and negative binomial distribution of parasitoid attacks.

Olfactory preference in chemical host plant recognition by male and female click beetles and its implications for pest management

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Click beetle (Elateridae) olfactory preferences for plant volatiles, including those released by damaged plants, remain poorly understood. Olfactometer and electroantennography experiments revealed sex‐ and plant species‐specific olfactory preferences of Agriotes sputator beetles, with maturity influencing female responses.

Bifenthrin resistance in Dalbulus maidis (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae): inheritance, cross‐resistance, and stability

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Resistance of Dalbulus maidis to bifenthrin was autosomal, incompletely dominant, and polygenic. Additionally, this resistance was unstable in the absence of selection pressure. Abstract BACKGROUND Pyrethroid insecticides have been a primary strategy for managing Dalbulus maidis (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) in Brazil. Howeve, failures in the control of D.
