Plant diversification impact on the oviposition response of a predatory bug in a laboratory set‐up

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Orius majusculus laid nearly twice as many eggs in cages with two different crop species compared with a single species. Depending on crop species, O. majusculus utilised different plant structures for oviposition. Crop diversification supports reproduction, and thus, is likely to have a positive effect on O.

Sphingolipids in bean leaves (Phaseolus vulgaris)

Journal of Lipid Research, 1969
Phytoglycolipid has been isolated for the first time from plant leaves (Phaseolus vulgaris). The purified product (almost identical with the phytoglycolipid isolated from flax seed) was a ceramide attached through phosphate diester linkage to an oligosaccharide, which consisted of the usual trisaccharide unit (inositol, hexuronic acid, hexosamine) to ...

Food without fire: Environmental and nutritional impacts from a solar stove field experiment

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Over 80% of the population in rural Sub‐Saharan Africa relies on biomass cooking fuel, a substantial source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. We use a field experiment in Zambia to investigate the impact of solar stoves on biomass fuel use and cooking habits.

Spatial and Temporal Scales of Range Expansion in Wild Phaseolus vulgaris

Molecular biology and evolution, 2017
The wild progenitor of common-bean has an exceptionally large distribution from northern Mexico to northwestern Argentina, unusual among crop wild progenitors. This research sought to document major events of range expansion that led to this distribution

Competitive Interactions Between Generalist Predators and Their Effects on Shared and Non‐Shared Pests in a Greenhouse Crop

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

Environmental stress influences reproductive success in male spider mites

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
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
