Plant responses to spider mite oviposition.
Plants are sessile organisms permanently exposed to a combination of abiotic and biotic stresses. Therefore, their survival depends on their capacity to adapt to the myriad of events that they face constantly. Among them, arthropod herbivory has a heavy cost on plant biology, and on agricultural systems millions of euros are lost every year due to pest

Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...

Edible insects offer a sustainable protein source, requiring fewer resources than traditional livestock. Despite challenges, they have the potential to enhance food security and sustainability for a growing global population. ABSTRACT As the world faces an escalating protein crisis amid climate change, population growth, and resource scarcity, edible ...

Insecticides outweigh rye cover crop in triggering secondary pest outbreaks
Insecticides outweigh rye cover crop in triggering secondary pest outbreaks. Zeus Mateos‐Fierro*, Ashley Leach, Ian Kaplan. Spider mite and melon aphid outbreaks are enhanced with broad‐spectrum insecticides, while natural enemies are reduced. However, rye cover crop has little effect on either pest or natural enemy populations.

Arabidopsis Kunitz Trypsin Inhibitors in Defense Against Spider Mites
Tetranychus urticae (two-spotted spider mite) is a striking example of polyphagy among herbivores with an extreme record of pesticide resistance and one of the most significant pests in agriculture. The T.
