Improved European native seed supply chains are essential for the implementation of the Nature Restoration Regulation

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
To ensure the timely implementation of the European Nature Restoration Regulation, native seed supply has to be improved. In this perspective paper, we call for the adoption of the concept of Native Seed and Restoration Centres (NSRCs) to boost seed supply chains.

Growth Index, Yield and Yield Components of Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd) Cultivars Affected by Date and Method of Planting at Ahvaz Region

Ikufīziyuluzhī-i Giyāhān-i Zirā̒ī
The most important component compatible with climatic diversity in agriculture is the planting date, which has the greatest impact on the phenological characteristics of the plant. Planting date is determined based on cultivar and climate of each region.

Natural Parasitism of Nezara viridula (Linnaeus) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) by Trichopoda pictipennis Bigot (Diptera: Tachinidae) in an Organic Strawberry Field in Germany

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Natural parasitism of the invasive southern green stinkbug was recorded in an organic strawberry cropping system in southwestern Germany. The tachinid fly Trichopoda pictipennis shows successful establishment and field activity, indicating ongoing range expansion.

Plant Growth and Arthropod Assemblage Metrics on Sapindus saponaria Fertilized With Dehydrated Municipal Sewage Sludge

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Under the conditions evaluated, dehydrated municipal sewage sludge increased branches per plant and ground cover in Sapindus saponaria and increased cumulative arthropod observations and species richness in selected groups. Exploratory multivariate patterns did not demonstrate direct causal plant–arthropod relationships.

Physiological and Biochemical Responses Associated With Resistance to Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 Herbivory in Soybean Cultivars Adapted to Tropical Regions

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Four soybean cultivars adapted to tropical regions were exposed to Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 under no‐choice conditions; after 24 h the adults were removed and the cohort was standardized to 100 eggs per plant. On the susceptible cultivars Olimpo, Latitude and Bonus, 84%–90% of the eggs reached adulthood, photosynthesis declined under infestation, and the ...

Do aphid endosymbiotic bacteria influence parasitoid searching behaviour through changes in aphid honeydew production?

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Parasitic wasp‐associated polydnavirus and venom affect arthropod community assembly on wild cabbage via the caterpillar host

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Cotesia glomerata polydnavirus and venom, either alone or in combination, affect colonisation by members of the arthropod community in a natural field setting. Plants damaged by P. brassicae injected with both polydnavirus and venom were colonised more often by Mamestra brassicae caterpillars, Myzus persicae aphids and aphid parasitoids compared to ...
