Plant sulphur nutrition influencing host-plant selection and performance of insect herbivores [PDF]

, 2003
In the past several years, sulphur (S) deficiencies in agricultural crops have been reported with increasing frequency and therefore more interest has been directed into plant nutrition and fertilisation with particular respect to this element.

Inhibition of lipoxygenase affects induction of both direct and indirect plant defences against herbivorous insects [PDF]

, 2009
Herbivore-induced plant defences influence the behaviour of insects associated with the plant. For biting–chewing herbivores the octadecanoid signal-transduction pathway has been suggested to play a key role in induced plant defence.

Chemical Compounds and Bioactivity of Aqueous Extracts of Alibertia spp. in the Control of Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)

Insects, 2017
Successive applications of insecticides to control Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) have resulted in the emergence of resistant populations of this insect.

Constructing more informative plant-pollinator networks : visitation and pollen deposition networks in a heathland plant community [PDF]

, 2015
Interaction networks are widely used as tools to understand plant–pollinator communities, and to examine potential threats to plant diversity and food security if the ecosystem service provided by pollinating animals declines.

Climate Change: Resetting Plant-Insect Interactions [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2012
Elevated CO2 and temperature are altering the interactions between plants and insects with important implications for food security and natural ecosystems. Ecologically, the acceleration of plant phenology by warming is generating mismatches between plants and insect pollinators.

Ecological Genomics of Plant-Insect Interactions: The Case of Wasp-Induced Galls

, 2020
Plant-insect interactions are central to understand ecological and evolutionary dynamics that shaped phenotypes and genotypes. Although the interaction between host plants and insect herbivores has been widely assessed, the molecular mechanisms behind it

Population-related variation in plant defense more strongly affects survival of an herbivore than its solitary parasitoid wasp [PDF]

, 2011
The performance of natural enemies, such as parasitoid wasps, is affected by differences in the quality of the host’s diet, frequently mediated by species or population-related differences in plant allelochemistry. Here, we compared survival, development

Fungal entomopathogens: new insights on their ecology [PDF]

, 2009
An important mechanism for insect pest control should be the use of fungal entomopathogens. Even though these organisms have been studied for more than 100 y, their effective use in the field remains elusive.

Influence of parasitoid-associated viral symbionts on plant–insect interactions and biological control [PDF]

, 2021
Insect parasitoids have evolved symbiotic interactions with several viruses and thousands of parasitoid species have established mutualistic associations with polydnaviruses (PDVs).
