Report of the parasitoid wasp, Oomyzus sokolowskii (Hym.: Eulophidae), from Iran [PDF]

open access: yesنامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران, 2008
One species of Eulophidae, Oomyzus sokolowskii (Kurdjumov), was collected from larvae of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep.: Plutellidae). This parasitoid is a major gregarious larval-pupal endoparasitoid of P.

Diel and Circadian Patterns of Locomotor Activity in the Adults of Diamondback Moth (Plutella xylostella)

open access: yesInsects, 2021
The Diamondback Moth (Plutella xylostella) is a highly destructive lepidopteran pest of cruciferous crops. However, there still is relatively little known about the locomotor activities of diel and the circadian patterns in P. xylostella.

Molecular mechanisms of sex determination in Lepidoptera: current status and perspectives

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The genetic basis of sex determination in Lepidoptera was discovered in 2014 in the silkworm Bombyx mori. In this model species, the W chromosome‐derived small piRNA called Fem piRNA downregulates the expression of a Z‐linked gene, Masculinizer (Masc), which leads to the default female‐specific splicing of the doublesex gene (dsxF) and thus to female ...

POTENTIAL ROLE OF WILD CRUCIFERS IN THE PRESERVATION OF DIADEGMA EUCEROPHAGA HORSTMAN (HYMENOPTERA: ICHNEUMONIDAE), A PARASITOID OF THE DIAMONDBACK MOTH, PLUTELLA XYLOSTELLA LINNAEUS (LEPIDOPTERA: PLUTELLIDAE)

open access: yesBiotropia: The Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Biology, 2011
Laboratory and  field experiments were conducted to evaluate the potential role of  two species of wild crucifers  in the preservation of Diadegma eucerophaga Horstman, a parasitoid of  the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella Linnaeus.

Synthetic biology approaches to generate temperature‐sensitive alleles for the Sterile Insect Technique

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is an environmentally friendly, sustainable pest control approach, which uses large‐scale releases of sterile insects to suppress or eradicate target populations through infertile matings. The efficiency of SIT is enhanced by male‐only releases requiring genetic sexing strains (GSSs) that are classically ...

Influence of temperature on spinosad toxicity in different populations of Plutella xylostella (Linnaeus)

open access: yesJournal of Agrometeorology, 2019
Diamond back moth, Plutella xylostella (Linnaeus) is one of the major insect-pest of cole crops, causing high yield losses. In present study, larval populations of P. xylostella, collected from different regions of Punjab i.e.

Neoclassical development of genetic sexing strains for insect pest and disease vector control

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The sterile insect technique has been effectively used for decades, and an important component is the availability of sex separation systems, in particular genetic sexing strains. Classical approaches, such as irradiation‐induced chromosomal translocations, have yielded stable strains for species like the Mediterranean fruit fly.

Amendment to \"report of the parasitoid wasp, Diadegma anurum (Hym.: Ichneumonidae), from Iran\" [PDF]

open access: yesنامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران, 2013
The previous record of Diadegma anurum (Thomson) as a parasitoid of diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep.: Plutellidae), from Iran has just been a misidentification of Diadegma semiclausum (Hellen).
