Insight into phenotypic plasticity in planthoppers
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2023Planthoppers possess an impressive ability to exhibit phenotypic plasticity, which allows them to adjust their morphology for migration, overwintering, and adaptation to different environmental conditions. The wing and color polyphenism are the two most outward morphologies.

Predator—Planthopper Interactions
1994Parasitoids have been selected often over predators in classical biological control programs because they are generally more host-specific and possess life history traits such as high fecundity, high larval survival, high searching efficiency, short handling time, and low mutual interference, which are thought to be more conducive to pest suppression ...

Bacterial reproductive manipulators in rice planthoppers
Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 2019AbstractRice planthoppers (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) are notorious pests for rice (Oryza sativa) in Asia, posing a serious threat to rice production and grain security. Rice planthoppers harbor diverse bacterial symbionts, including Wolbachia, Cardinium, Spiroplasma, and Arsenophonus, which are known to manipulate reproduction in arthropod hosts.

Sequential sampling: planthoppers in rice
Crop Protection, 1986Abstract A sequential sampling plan was developed for the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens Stal, and the whitebacked planthopper, Sogatella furcifera Horvath in rice. The plan was tested in several different areas in the Philippines and compared with a more intensive sampling technique.
