Distribution under climate change of Anemone coronaria: linking flower colour and seed dispersal
Flower colour polymorphism is driven by divergent selection regimes on the colour morphs across time and space. Anemone coronaria, a colour‐polymorphic geophyte with red, purple, and white flowers, displays a geographic pattern along Israel's aridity gradient: polymorphic populations are restricted to Mediterranean climates, while monomorphic‐red ...

FIELD AND LABORATORY STUDIES ON INFESTATION OF IMMATURE MANGO FRUITS BY THE PEACH FRUIT FLY, BACTROCERA ZONARA (SAUNDERS) [PDF]
the peach fruit fly, Bactrocerazonata, is one of the fruit flies thatattack mango fruits during maturity and ripening stages causing significant damage. This paper iscontribution for evaluation the role of dropped immature fruits as host of B. zonata through sampling dropped mango fruits of different varieties at different stages of maturity in ...

PATHOGENIC AND LETHAL EFFECTS OF THE ENTOMOPATHOGENIC NEMATODES ON THE PEACH FRUIT FLY, BACTROCERA ZONATA (SAUNDERS) AND THE CUCURBIT FRUIT FLY, DACUS CILIATUS (LOEW) (DIPTERA : TEPHRITIDAE) [PDF]
Laboratory experiments were performed to evaluate the pathogenic and lethal effects of the entomopathogenic nematodes Hb (Heterorhabditis bacteriophora Poinar) and Sc (Steinernema carpocapsae All strains) on the full grown larvae, newly formed pupae and seven days old adults of the peach fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata and the cucurbit fly, Dacus ciliatus.

In the present study, the toxicity of three oxygenated monoterpenes, viz., (R)-carvone, (R)-camphor and (1R, 2S, 5R)-menthol was evaluated against the adults of the peach fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata (Saunders). Effects of these monoterpenes on oviposition, adult longevity and ovarian development have also been studied.

Lecanicillium aphanocladii: a biocontrol agent against insect pests and phytopathogens
Recent research findings on the biocontrol potential of Lecanicillium aphanocladii fungus against insect‐pests and plant diseases were highlighted. This review indicates that several L. aphanocladii strains show great potential to be developed as multipurpose biocontrol agents active against several insect‐pests, plant diseases and plant parasitic ...
