Toxins for Transgenic Resistance to Hemipteran Pests [PDF]

, 2012
The sap sucking insects (Hemiptera), which include aphids, whiteflies, plant bugs and stink bugs, have emerged as major agricultural pests. The Hemiptera cause direct damage by feeding on crops, and in some cases indirect damage by transmission of plant ...

Peptide Hormone‐Mediated Regulation of Plant Development and Environmental Adaptability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this review, recent advances in understanding the roles of plant peptide hormones in regulating growth, reproduction, and environmental adaptability are systematically summarized. It further elucidates the challenges in studying these peptides, such as their low abundance, functional redundancy, and complex signaling mechanisms, and highlights their

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Genome-wide identification of chemosensory receptor genes in the small brown planthopper, Laodelphax striatellus

Genomics, 2020
The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus is one of the major insect pests of rice, but little is known about the molecular-level means by which it locates its hosts. SBPH host-seeking behavior heavily relies on chemosensory receptors (CRs).

High migratory potential of fall armyworm in West Africa despite stable temperatures and widely available year‐round habitats

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Despite the minimal annual temperature variation and the widespread distribution of potential year‐round habitats in Ghana, the migratory potential of the local fall armyworm remains strong and is indistinguishable from that of the fall armyworm in China, which undergo seasonal migration.

Multi‐omics analysis reveals discordant proteome and transcriptome responses in larval guts of Frankliniella occidentalis infected with an orthotospovirus

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Tomato spotted wilt virus modulated the abundance of gut proteins in larval thrips, most notably manifested as a predominant down‐regulation in first instar larvae. Gut‐expressed protein and cognate transcript abundance were moderately correlated across the tissue system; however, the virus effect varied widely at transcriptional and translational ...

Rice black‐streaked dwarf virus‐encoded P6 protein impairs OsPelota‐mediated antiviral RNA decay defense via promoting OsSCE1b ubiquitination and degradation in rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The P6 protein encoded by rice black‐streaked dwarf virus enhances degradation of the rice SUMO E2 conjugating enzyme OsSCE1b through the ubiquitin/26S proteasome pathway; OsSCE1b degradation results in decreased SUMOylation of OsPelota, thereby suppressing RNA decay‐dependent antiviral defenses in rice. ABSTRACT Rice black‐streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV)

Evolution of host support for two ancient bacterial symbionts with differentially degraded genomes in a leafhopper host. [PDF]

, 2018
Plant sap-feeding insects (Hemiptera) rely on bacterial symbionts for nutrition absent in their diets. These bacteria experience extreme genome reduction and require genetic resources from their hosts, particularly for basic cellular processes other than

Windborne migration of Auchenorrhyncha (Hemiptera) over Britain [PDF]

, 2017
Planthoppers (Delphacidae), leafhoppers (Cicadellidae) and froghoppers (Aphrophoridae) (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) caught during day and night sampling at a height of 200 m above ground at Cardington, Bedfordshire, UK, during eight summers (between 1999

The c-Jun N-terminal kinase pathway of a vector insect is activated by virus capsid protein and promotes viral replication

eLife, 2017
No evidence has shown whether insect-borne viruses manipulate the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway of vector insects. Using a system comprising the plant virus Rice stripe virus (RSV) and its vector insect, the small brown planthopper, we ...
