Assessing the effects of Cry1C rice and Cry2A rice to Pseudogonatopus flavifemur, a parasitoid of rice planthoppers [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 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

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

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
