Systematics and biology of Cotesia typhae sp. n. (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Microgastrinae), a potential biological control agent against the noctuid Mediterranean corn borer, Sesamia nonagrioides [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2017 Many parasitoid species are subjected to strong selective pressures from their host, and their adaptive response may result in the formation of genetically differentiated populations, called host races.

Antibiosis of the pith maize to Sesamia nonagrioides (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). [PDF]
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2002 Thirteen inbred lines of maize (Zea mays L.) with different levels of stem resistance to the stem borer Sesamia nonagrioides Lefevbre were evaluated in the Þeld and the laboratory to determine the antibiotic resistance to this pest. Inbreds CM151, CO125,

Thermoperiodic effects on diapause of Sesamia nonagrioides (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) [PDF]
European Journal of Entomology, 2002 The role of the thermophotoperiod on larval diapause induction and development of Sesamia nonagrioides was investigated under laboratory conditions. The incidences of diapause by TC 12 : 12 thermoperiods under DD, in which the thermophase was 30°C and ...

Sublethal Effects of Four Insecticides with Different Modes of Action on Life History, Demography and Host Exploitation by the Egg Parasitoid, Telenomus busseolae [PDF]
InsectsUnderstanding how sublethal insecticide exposure affects natural enemies is crucial for sustainable pest management, yet such effects remain largely unexplored in some scelionid parasitoids, including Telenomus busseolae Gahan (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae).

Effects of seed infection by Fusarium verticillioides on maize performance against Sesamia nonagrioides attack. [PDF]
Physiol PlantAbstract In maize (Zea mays L), the fungus Fusarium verticillioides can behave as a pathogen, but it is also able of asymptomatic colonization as an endophyte. Therefore, it would be of great value to identify metabolites and/or metabolic pathways implicated in mutualistic and pathogenic interactions.
