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 ...

Arthropod niche differentiation linked to grazing‐induced sward islets in intensively managed agricultural pasture

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

Locomotion in Response to Shifting Climate Zones: Not So Fast [PDF]

, 2010
Although a species’ locomotor capacity is suggestive of its ability to escape global climate change, such a suggestion is not necessarily straightforward. Species vary substantially in locomotor capacity, both ontogenetically and within/among populations,

Lethal Effects of the Wild Potato Solanum bulbocastanum on the Planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus, a Vector of Bacterial Pathogens in Potato

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.

A Comparative Analyses of the Complete Mitochondrial Genomes of Fungal Endosymbionts in Sogatella furcifera, White-Backed Planthoppers

International Journal of Genomics, 2021
Sogatella furcifera Horvath, commonly known as the white-backed planthoppers (WBPH), is an important pest in East Asian rice fields. Fungal endosymbiosis is widespread among planthoppers in the infraorder Fulgoromorpha and suborder Auchenorrhyncha.

Identification d'insectes vecteurs "potentiels" du Cape Saint Paul Wilt sur le cocotier au Ghana par PCR [PDF]

, 2008
Le vecteur du phytoplasme responsable du jaunissement mortel du cocotier au Ghana est inconnu à ce jour. Il est cependant admis que les phytoplasmes sont transmis par des insectes piqueurs-suceurs, ces insectes étant supposés être les seuls à avoir la ...

An Auto‐Activated NLR‐Protein OsRGA3D605V Confers Rice Triple Resistance and Deactivates Resistance After Phosphorylation by OsILA1

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The incidence of pests and diseases seriously impacts rice production, and NLR genes play a crucial role in the regulation of immune signalling in rice. Here, we identified an NLR gene OsRGA3 that positively regulates rice resistance to brown planthopper (BPH) and rice blast disease (RBD).

Activation of Toll Immune Pathway in an Insect Vector Induced by a Plant Virus

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
The Toll pathway plays an important role in defense against infection of various pathogenic microorganisms, including viruses. However, current understanding of Toll pathway was mainly restricted in mammal and some model insects such as Drosophila and ...

Parasitism of Brown Planthopper and Whitebacked Planthopper by Agamermis unka in Korea.

Journal of nematology, 2011
Adults of the brown planthopper (BPH) and the whitebacked planthopper (WBPH) that migrated into Korea from China were not parasitized by the mermithid, Agamermis unka. BPH and WBPH collected from Korean rice fields were parasitized. Parasitism of BPH in the lst-3rd, 4th, and 5th instars, and adults was 31.5%, 61.5%, 66.4%, and 45.5%, respectively ...
