Secretory RING finger proteins function as effectors in a grapevine galling insect. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundAll eukaryotes share a conserved network of processes regulated by the proteasome and fundamental to growth, development, or perception of the environment, leading to complex but often predictable responses to stress. As a specialized component

Bioefficacy of ethiprole + pymetrozine against the white-backed planthopper Sogatella furcifera (Howard), in rice (ADT – 46) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The nymphs and adults of white-backed planthoppers (Sogatella furcifera, Howard) remove plant sap resulting in yield loss. Indiscriminate use of insecticides, results in the development of resistance by insects and ill effects on the environment opening ...

Insect I‐Type Lysozymes Function as Antiviral Proteases by Forming Biomolecular Condensates

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.
Upon rice viral infection, the insect vector activates the Toll–MyD88–Dorsal signaling cascade, inducing i‐type lysozyme (Lyz‐I1) expression. Lyz‐I1 functions as an antiviral protease through its conserved catalytic dyad Glu/Asp (E/D), mediating cleavage of viral proteins at specific Lys (K) residues.

Comparative Genomics of the Endosymbiont Cardinium Causing Reproductive Manipulation in Encarsia Parasitoid Wasps

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
We assembled four Cardinium hertigii draft genomes: cEina3 causes cytoplasmic incompatibility, cEhis1 induces parthenogenesis, cEper2 is associated with parthenogenesis, and cEina2 infects asymptomatically. All four strains are closely related and hosted by Encarsia parasitoid wasps, but key differences exist, including their metabolic potential and ...

Action thresholds of wet rice arthropods for pest management decision-making in Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Action thresholds to aid pest population management decision-making of 11 categories of wet rice arthropods are suggested in terms of mean population density per hill (x) and proportion of infestation (P(I)) of the field sampling units.

Emerging Viral Threats in Rice: A Decade of Discovery and Implications for Crop Protection

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 12, Page 8702-8711, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Rice viral diseases pose severe threats to global food security, with over 20 viruses identified in China alone. The advent of high‐throughput sequencing has accelerated the discovery of novel viruses in cultivated and wild rice, unveiling previously undetected threats.
