Insulin receptors and wing dimorphism in rice planthoppers. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 2017 Wing polymorphism contributes significantly to the success of a wide variety of insects. However, its underlying molecular mechanism is less well understood. The migratory planthopper (BPH),Nilaparvata lugens, is one of the most extensively studied insects for wing polymorphism, due to its natural features of short- and long-winged morphs.

Timing of Fungal Insecticide Application to Avoid Solar Ultraviolet Irradiation Enhances Field Control of Rice Planthoppers. [PDF]
Insects, 2023 Simple Summary The control of rice planthoppers (RPH) in Asian countries has relied upon chemical insecticides for several decades. The reliance no longer continues in the rice–aquaculture coculture and rotation systems emerging as high-profit ...

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Profiling of the Wnt Gene Family in Three Rice Planthoppers: Sogatella furcifera, Laodelphax striatellus, and Nilaparvata lugens. [PDF]
J Insect Sci, 2022 The Wnt gene family plays essential roles in regulating many developmental processes, including the maintenance of stem cells, cell division, and cell migration. The number of Wnt genes varies among species.

A rapid multiplex PCR assay for species identification of Asian rice planthoppers (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) and its application to early-instar nymphs in paddy fields. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2021 Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the main cereal crop in many Asian countries. The Asian rice planthoppers, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) (brown planthopper), Sogatella furcifera (Horváth) (white-backed planthopper), and Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén) (small brown

Cry2A rice did not affect the interspecific interactions between two rice planthoppers, Nilaparvata lugens, and Sogatella furcifera. [PDF]
GM Crops Food, 2019 Interspecific interactions are complex in agro-ecosystems and could be affected by agricultural technologies including transgenic crop planting. Few studies focused on the effects of Bt crops on the interspecific interactions of non-target organisms ...

Insecticide application and its effect on the density of rice planthoppers, Nilaparvata lugens and Sogatella furcifera, in paddy fields in the Red River Delta, Vietnam. [PDF]
J Pestic Sci, 2019 The brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens, and the white-backed planthopper, Sogatella furcifera, are significant pest insects for rice. Both species are able to survive year-round in northern Vietnam's Red River Delta, which includes a large rice ...

Assessing the effects of Cry1C rice and Cry2A rice to Pseudogonatopus flavifemur, a parasitoid of rice planthoppers. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 Transgenic rice producing insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) could help protect the plants from damage by lepidopteran pests. However, one concern is the potential of Bt rice to harm non-target natural enemies, which play a vital role

Climate Variability Shifting Immigrated Rice Planthoppers in Taiwan
Climate, 2022 Rice planthoppers are common insect pests in Taiwan, and they have caused significant damage in the past. The majority of rice planthoppers have seen a drastic decline in their population since the mid-2000s, a trend that has anecdotally attributed to widespread and better pest control, as well as improved rice cultivation management.

RNAi Regulator C3PO Promotes Arbovirus Infection in Insect Vectors. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)RNA interference (RNAi) is vital for eukaryotes to defend against virus infection. The C3PO complex takes part in RNAi but its role in regulating viral infection remains unclear. This work finds that insect C3PO facilitates arbovirus replication by degrading precursors of miRNAs, especially miR‐971‐3p.
