The adaptation by planthoppers to feed and develop on resistant rice is a challenge for pest management in Asia. We conducted a series of manipulative experiments with the brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens (Stål)) on the resistant rice variety IR62 ...

In this paper, we investigate the effect of insecticide on the population dynamics of brown planthoppers (a major insect pest of rice) and Cyrtorhinus lividipennis (one of the natural enemies of brown planthoppers) by developing an impulsive mathematical

The brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål), is a key challenge to rice production in Asia. Outbreaks of planthoppers are associated with excessive fertilizer applications; consequently, we examined planthopper interactions with susceptible ...

Response of planthoppers to novel margin management in arable systems
Planthoppers (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) form one of the most abundant groups of phytophagous above-ground invertebrates in agroecosystems. Planthoppers have potential as a useful indicator of the effects of management in agroecosystems due to their ...

The snapping organ likely evolved once in the planthoppers.
(A) Systematic distribution of the snapping organ (green, Fulgoromorpha) indicates a single origin at the root of planthopper phylogeny. White spaces within planthoppers indicate modification of snapping organs in the non-Asiracinae delphacids and the ...

Abundance and species richness of leafhoppers and planthoppers (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae and Delphacidae) in Brazilian maize crops. [PDF]
Insects in the Cicadellidae and Delphacidae families, common in grasses, are an important group of vectors of viruses and mollicutes, which cause diseases in several plant species. The goal of this study was to evaluate the abundance and species richness

Although many hypotheses have been proposed to understand the mechanisms underlying large-scale richness patterns, the environmental determinants are still poorly understood, particularly in insects.

From Defense Executor to Engineering Target: Harnessing Lignin for Crop Resistance
Lignin serves as both a physical and chemical executor of broad‐spectrum plant immunity. This review systematically summarizes classical and recent advances in lignin‐mediated immunity, outlines the multifaceted regulatory modules controlling lignification under biotic stress, discusses key physiological and biochemical mechanisms behind lignin‐based ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Host plant resistance has received considerable attention for the management of insect herbivores on crop plants. However, resistance is threatened by the rapid adaptation of target herbivores towards virulence (the ability to survive, develop and damage
