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.

Cost of parasite exposure depends on host ontogeny 寄生接觸的代價依賴於宿主發育階段
The cost of parasite exposure varies across host developmental stages, demonstrating that ontogeny influences the expression of non‐consumptive effects (NCEs). Mite exposure resulted in consumptive effects in fly eggs and NCEs in early‐stage pupae; mite longevity was comparable when provisioned with pupae or water but increased when provisioned with ...

Ecological predictors of plant responses to sequential herbivory: a meta‐analysis
Summary Plants evolved alongside herbivores for over 400 million years and show remarkable plasticity in responses to attack by multiple herbivores. However, it is often debated which herbivore traits predict plant responses and it is poorly understood how plant life‐history traits contribute to the variation observed in plant responses.
