Selective leaf surface defenses: trichomes trap herbivorous leafminers but spare parasitoid wasps
Hooked trichomes on kidney bean leaves selectively entrap leafminer flies but rarely affect parasitoid wasps. This morphological barrier enables pest suppression with minimal impact on beneficial insects, offering insights for breeding pest‐resistant cultivars compatible with biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND Leafminers [e.g., Liriomyza trifolii (

Performance of Fall Armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda Reared on Various Horticultural Crops
The developmental performance and reproductive success of the Australian population of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) were evaluated on five horticultural crops under laboratory conditions. Sweetcorn and bean supported rapid development, lower mortality, and higher fecundity (good performance); whereas capsicum, strawberry, and okra resulted in ...

Seasonal variation in species composition and frequency of insecticide resistance alleles (kdr and ace-1r) in the Anopheles gambiae complex from an irrigated rice fields area in Western Burkina Faso [PDF]
Monitoring of the spread of insecticide resistance in field vector populations is a prerequisite for the implementation of efficient and sustainable vector control strategies based on the use of insecticides. Screening for resistance alleles in Anopheles

Environmental stress influences reproductive success in male spider mites
This experiment explores how male juvenile food stress impacts reproductive traits in the haplodiploid spider mite Tetranychus urticae. Males exposed to juvenile food stress had lower reproductive success and females mated to these males also suffered reduced fitness as they were not able to produce optimal offspring sex ratios. The negative effects of
