Pest categorisation of non‐EU Cicadomorpha vectors of Xylella spp.

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2019., 2019
Abstract The Panel on Plant Health performed a group pest categorisation of non‐EU Cicadomorpha vectors of Xylella spp. known to be associated with plant diseases. Although all the insects considered in this categorisation are proven vectors of Xylella spp., additional vectors within the order Hemiptera most probably exist but have not been associated ...

Local Knowledge and Conservation Priorities of Medicinal Plants near a Protected Area in Brazil

open access: yesEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
We investigated the influence of socioeconomic factors (age, gender, and occupation) on the local knowledge of medicinal plants in the Araripe National Forest, Brazil, and the priority of conservation of the species as perceived by people. Additionally, priority species for in situ conservation were identified by calculating conservation priority (CP).

Medicinal Plants for the Treatment of Local Tissue Damage Induced by Snake Venoms: An Overview from Traditional Use to Pharmacological Evidence

open access: yesEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
Snakebites are a serious problem in public health due to their high morbimortality. Most of snake venoms produce intense local tissue damage, which could lead to temporary or permanent disability in victims. The available specific treatment is the antivenom serum therapy, whose effectiveness is reduced against these effects.

Review of Clinical Trials on Effects of Oral Antioxidants on Basic Semen and Other Parameters in Idiopathic Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Infertility affects 50 to 80 million people worldwide. Male factor is a cause of infertility in almost half of cases, mainly due to oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT). With common diagnostic methods no cause can be found in approximately 30% of cases of male infertility due to OAT and these are considered idiopathic.

A Review of the Biology of Eucharitidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) from Argentina

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
All the members of Eucharitidae are parasitoid of ants. Argentina has 14 genera and 41 species, but little is known about their biology. Herein are provided new data for host associations (host ant and/or host plant) of Galearia latreillei, Kapala spp., Latina rugosa, Orasema aenea, and Orasema sp.

A big phylogenomic tree with bigger taxonomic implications for the world's biggest rove beetles (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Staphylinini, Platydracus‐group)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 1041-1066, October 2025.
The first phylogenomic study of the Platydracus group of rove beetle genera is provided. It targets 1229 loci and 138 taxa with a post‐analysis assessment of morphological characters. This group of 400+ described species is found monophyletic and reclassified into 12 monophyletic genera to give a frame for the badly needed species‐level taxonomy.

Spread of Xylella fastidiosa in Majorca Island Agroecosystems: Interaction Between Insect Vectors, Woody Hosts and Bacterial Subspecies

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 1867-1877, August 2025.
Philaenus spumarius is the main vector of Xylella fastidiosa in Majorca, maintaining high infectivity on wild hosts and facilitating pathogen spread in almonds and vineyards. ABSTRACT Xylella fastidiosa (XF) is a gram‐negative bacterium naturally transmitted by xylem sap‐feeding insects that causes serious plant diseases.
