Heterorhabditidoides rugaoensis n. sp. (Rhabditida: Rhabditidae), a Novel Highly Pathogenic Entomopathogenic Nematode Member of Rhabditidae.

Journal of nematology, 2013
A novel entomopathogenic nematode species, Heterorhabditidoides rugaoensis n. sp. RG081015, collected from Rugao, China, is described. The new species is morphologically very similar to H. chongmingensis but can be distinguished from it on the basis of some morphological characteristics, combined with molecular data and a cross-hybridization test ...

Another tool in the toolbox: Aphid‐specific Wolbachia protect against fungal pathogens

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2024.
Wolbachia infected more than 80% of Pentalonia aphids sampled across the Hawaiian Islands and other locations. The aphid‐specific M‐supergroup strains of this symbiont protected against a specialist fungal pathogen, Pandora, but not the generalist pathogen Beauveria or the parasitoid Aphidius colemanii.

Reminiscences on the honeybee genome project and the rise of epigenetic concepts in insect science

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 444-456, October 2024.
The honeybee genome project was an important milestone in social insect research that opened new possibilities for the community's quest to study social evolution at molecular and cellular levels. Among new lines of research, the epigenomic modifications to DNA, histones and RNAs gained special prominence as potential drivers of phenotypic and ...

Ecological characterisation of the Colombian entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis sp. SL0708

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis sp. SL0708 (Rhabditida: Heterorhabditidae) isolated from soil in Alcalá, Valle del Cauca (Colombia) was characterised ecologically using Galleria mellonella larvae (L) (Pyralidae: Galleriinae) as hosts.

Nematode community structure suggests perennial grain cropping cultivation as a nature‐based solution for resilient agriculture

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2024.
Abstract Introduction Conventional agricultural land‐use may negatively impact biodiversity and the environment due to the increased disturbances to the soil ecosystem by tillage, for example. Cultivation of the perennial grain intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium, IWG, Kernza®) is a nature‐based solution for sustainable agriculture ...
