Reproductive Interference and Niche Partitioning in Aphidophagous Insects
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016 The range and quality of prey species differ greatly among closely related species of predators. However, the factors responsible for this diversified niche utilization are unclear. This is because the predation and resource competition do not always prevent species coexistence. In this paper, we present evidence in support of reproductive interference

Spray‐induced gene silencing to control plant pathogenic fungi: A step‐by‐step guide
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 801-825, March 2025.Spray‐induced gene silencing is an innovative, eco‐friendly technology for controlling plant fungal diseases by applying RNA molecules that silence key fungal genes via RNA interference. This guide explores how to develop safe and effective formulations based on current knowledge, aiming to improve their efficacy under real‐world conditions.

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 7, Page 3293-3300, July 2024.Finger millet, corn, and barley have different characteristics which predispose them to be used as banker plants in different specific biocontrol contexts. Abstract BACKGROUND In temperate regions, aphid biological control in greenhouses is mostly achieved by the regular release of biocontrol agents. Due to the rapid growth rate of the aphid population,

Uptake and transfer of a Bt toxin by a lepidoptera to Its eggs and effects on Its offspring. [PDF]
, 2018 Research on non-target effects of transgenic crop plants has focused primarily on bitrophic, tritrophic and indirect effects of entomotoxins from Bacillus thuringiensis, but little work has considered intergenerational transfer of Cry proteins. This work

Impacts of Six Bt Rice Lines on Nontarget Rice Feeding Thrips Under Laboratory and Field Conditions [PDF]
, 2017 Nontarget impacts of six transgenic Bt rice lines (expressing the Cry1Ab or Cry1Ab/Cry1Ac protein) on the thrips, Stenchaetothrips biformis (Bagnall), attacking the rice seedling and tillering stages, were evaluated under laboratory and field conditions.
