Oviposition Preferences of the Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Response to Various Potential Repellent and Attractant Plants [PDF]
The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, is a major polyphagous pest that mainly feeds on maize and other cash crops. Understanding S. frugiperda’s behavior on different host plants facilitates the development of effective integrated pest ...

Unprecedented variation pattern of plastid genomes and the potential role in adaptive evolution in Poales [PDF]
Background The plastid is the photosynthetic organelle in plant cell, and the plastid genomes (plastomes) are generally conserved in evolution. As one of the most economically and ecologically important order of angiosperms, Poales was previously ...

Sexual Dimorphism on a Conserved Scaffold: Insights from the Floral Ontogeny of Eurychorda (Restionaceae: Poales) [PDF]
Angiosperms include many taxa with dimorphic unisexual reproductive structures. These are well studied in some grasses, with maize as a key model, but other wind-pollinated lineages in Poales remain less explored.

The low level of plastome differentiation observed in some lineages of Poales hinders molecular species identification [PDF]
Chloroplast genomes are a source of information successfully used in various fields of plant genetics, including molecular species identification. However, recent studies indicate an extremely low level of interspecific variability in the plastomes of ...

Seed Fatty Acids Modify Oviposition of Tenebrio molitor (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) [PDF]
Plant–insect interactions mediated by chemical compounds are well documented in roots and above-ground plant parts except seeds. The latter chemoecological interactions remain poorly studied.

The early Miocene lake of Foieta la Sarra-A in eastern Iberian Peninsula and its relevance for the reconstruction of the Ribesalbes–Alcora Basin palaeoecology [PDF]
The Ribesalbes–Alcora Basin (Castelló Province, Spain) contains two lower Miocene units that are rich in fossils. The Unit B contains oil-shale and laminated bituminous dolomicrite related to a palaeolake, whereas the Unit C is composed of sandstone and ...

Organelle Phylogenomics and Extensive Conflicting Phylogenetic Signals in the Monocot Order Poales
The Poales is one of the largest orders of flowering plants with significant economic and ecological values. Reconstructing the phylogeny of the Poales is important for understanding its evolutionary history that forms the basis for biological studies ...

Plants compete for light partly by over-producing chlorophyll in leaves. The resulting high light absorption is an effective strategy for out competing neighbors in mixed communities, but it prevents light transmission to lower leaves and limits ...
