Effects of antioxidant activity of black maize in corn borer larval survival and growth

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2018
Antioxidant activity (AA) of black maize kernels attributed mainly to polyphenols has potential effects on health and possible defense functions against pests.

Influence of Dietary Experience on the Induction of Preference of Adult Moths and Larvae for a New Olfactory Cue. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
In Lepidoptera, host plant selection is first conditioned by oviposition site preference of adult females followed by feeding site preference of larvae. Dietary experience to plant volatile cues can induce larval and adult host plant preference.

Fusarium verticillioides seed inoculation modifies maize cell wall responses to subsequent Sesamia nonagrioides infestation

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Prior seed inoculation with Fusarium verticillioides altered the maize cell wall response to Sesamia nonagrioides attack. The combined biotic interaction promoted specific changes in lignin composition and hydroxycinnamate accumulation, suggesting that stress history modulates inducible structural defences.

Proteolytic processing of native Cry1Ab toxin by midgut extracts and purified trypsins from the Mediterranean corn borer Sesamia nonagrioides

open access: yes, 2007
8 páginas, 3 figuras -- PAGS nros. 428-435The proteolytic processing of native Cry1Ab toxin by midgut extracts from the Mediterranean corn borer, Sesamia nonagrioides, takes place in successive steps. Several cuts occur until a 74 kDa protein is obtained;

Spectroscopic studies of Manduca sexta and Sesamia nonagrioides chorion protein structure

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 1995
The secondary structure of Manduca sexta and Sesamia nonagrioides chorion proteins has been studied in intact chorions using laser-Raman and Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy and in a solution containing extracted and reassembled chorion proteins using circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy.

Differential expression of the chemosensory transcriptome in two populations of the stemborer Sesamia nonagrioides

open access: yesInsect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2015
Among the proposed mechanisms of local adaptation to different ecological environments, transcriptional changes may play an important role. In this study, we investigated whether such variability occurred within the chemosensory organs of a herbivorous insect, for which chemosensation guides most of its host preferences.

Phylogenetic insights into Dyopsinae (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae): Resolving the systematic position of Thiacidinae

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.
In this study, a new phylogenetic study reclassifies the moth subfamilies Dyopsinae and Thiacidinae. For the first time, Thiacidas postica—the type species of Thiacidinae—was sequenced and shown to belong within Dyopsinae, in the Ceroctena clade. As a result, Thiacidinae is reinstated as the tribe Thiacidini (stat. nov.) within Dyopsinae.

Integrative taxonomy reveals six new species related to the Mediterranean corn stalk borer Sesamia nonagrioides (Lefèbvre) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Sesamiina)

open access: yes, 2015
Species in the stem borer noctuid subtribe Sesamiina are notoriously difficult to distinguish because most related species have homogeneous wing patterns and almost indistinguishable genitalia.
