Identification of broadly expressed nervous system‐related genes as effective RNAi targets in the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Broadly expressed genes outperformed brain‐enriched neural targets as RNAi candidates in Halyomorpha halys. Microinjection of dsRNA targeting alpha‐soluble NSF attachment protein (Asnap) or Ras opposite protein (Rop) caused strong feeding suppression and near‐complete mortality, identifying them as promising targets for future oral or spray‐based RNAi ...

Cecropins from Plutella xylostella and Their Interaction with Metarhizium anisopliae

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2015
Cecropins are the most potent induced peptides to resist invading microorganisms. In the present study, two full length cDNA encoding cecropin2 (Px-cec2) and cecropin3 (Px-cec3) were obtained from P. xylostella by integrated analysis of genome and transcriptome data.

Premortality effects of Zoophthora radicans infection in Plutella xylostella

open access: yes, 1997
The effect of Zoophthora radicans infection on food consumption and utilization by Plutella xylostella larvae and oviposition by adults was investigated. Larval food consumption and weight gain were not affected by Z.

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.

Odorant Receptor PxylOR11 Mediates Repellency of Plutella xylostella to Aromatic Volatiles

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Insects can use plant volatiles to guide certain behaviors, such as courtship, mating, host positioning, and habitat selection. Plutella xylostella is a global agricultural pest and has always been closely studied, but relatively few studies assess the ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
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.

Inheritance of resistance to Bt canola in a field-derived population of Plutella xylostella

open access: yes, 2003
Crops expressing Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) insecticidal Cry proteins are grown on millions of hectares. Recommendations to delay resistance are based on a high expression/refugia strategy that aims to kill resistant heterozygotes and enable some ...

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.

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.
