Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.This study was designed to understand the association between reproductive endosymbiotic bacteria and wild and laboratory‐reared Tuta absoluta populations. The majority of T. absoluta populations showed Wolbachia presence at varying levels of infection, whereas Arsenophonus, Cardinium, and Spiroplasma were not detected. Wolbachia‐positive T.

Agronomy, 2022 Excessive zinc (Zn) is toxic to plants, but the effect of zinc-stressed plants on herbivorous insects is still unclear. Hence, we assessed the effect of zinc-stressed rice plants on its feeding pest, Nilaparvata lugens. The soil–rice–N. lugens system was

Jumping performance of planthoppers (Hemiptera, Issidae) [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2009 SUMMARYThe structure of the hind limbs and the kinematics of their movements that propel jumping in planthopper insects (Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha,Fulgoroidea, Issidae) were analysed. The propulsion for a jump was delivered by rapid movements of the hind legs that both move in the same plane beneath the body and parallel to its longitudinal axis, as ...

Current Biology, 2018 Summary Gene duplication is a major source of genetic variation that has been shown to underpin the evolution of a wide range of adaptive traits [1, 2]. For example, duplication or amplification of genes encoding detoxification enzymes has been shown to ...

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2020 Rice planthopper is a very important hemipteran pest that preys on rice and substantially affects the safety of rice production. Moreover, the long-term prevention and control of these pests with chemical pesticides has led to an increase in the ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.In a given number of samples, grassland sward islets contain more species of arthropods than the surrounding sward. When corrected for abundance, there is no difference in species richness, suggesting that the effect of islets might purely be to concentrate arthropods. The community structure differences indicated by non‐metric multidimensional scaling

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022 We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genomes of one Iolania perkinsi (Kirkaldy 1902) and one Oliarus cf. filicicola (Kirkaldy 1909) planthopper (Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea: Cixiidae) from Volcano Village, located on the eastern flank of Mauna Loa.

Accumulation of Fungal Pathogens Infecting the Invasive Spotted Lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula
Insects, 2023 In the eastern United States, populations of the invasive spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula, are abundant and spreading. Four species of naturally occurring entomopathogenic fungi have previously been reported as infecting these planthoppers, with ...

A comprehensive omics analysis and functional survey of cuticular proteins in the brown planthopper
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018 Significance The cuticle, mainly composed of chitin and cuticular proteins (CPs), is a multifunctional structure of arthropods. CPs usually account for >1% of the total insect proteins encoded in the genome. Why does an insect need so many different CPs?

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus [Hemiptera: Cixiidae] is a vector of the two plant pathogenic bacteria ‘Candidatus Arsenophonus phytopathogenicus’ and ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’ causing ‘bacterial potato tuber wilt’ in potato.
