A multi‐year dormancy strategy in a cabbage beetle population in southeastern China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
Our results showed that duration of diapause for adults collected in different years varied from several months to 5 years. Approximately 25.9%–29.2% of individuals showed prolonged diapause over the 5 years of observation. The temperature and photoperiod during induction have a significant influence on the incidence of prolonged diapause. Abstract The

Asian corn borer damage is affected by rind penetration strength of corn stalks in a spatiotemporally dependent manner

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Asian corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis (Guenée), is an important insect pest of maize throughout most of Asia. The rind of a maize stalk is a key barrier against corn borer larvae boring into the plant. There is a need to better understand the relationship between stalk strength and O.

Insect pest management in the age of synthetic biology

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 20, Issue 1, Page 25-36, January 2022., 2022
Summary Arthropod crop pests are responsible for 20% of global annual crop losses, a figure predicted to increase in a changing climate where the ranges of numerous species are projected to expand. At the same time, many insect species are beneficial, acting as pollinators and predators of pest species.

Evaluation of Popcorn Germplasm for Resistance to Sesamia nonagrioides Attack [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Economic Entomology, 2005
Popcorn adapted to Spanish conditions could be an interesting and profitable alternative to field corn. However, little is known about breeding popcorn germplasm for adaptation to Spain. Sesamia nonagrioides Lefèvbre is the main insect pest affecting popcorn quality and yield under Spanish growing conditions. The objectives of the study were the search
