Appetitive and Aversive Learning in Spodoptera littoralis Larvae [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Senses, 2011
Adult Lepidoptera are capable of associative learning. This helps them to forage flowers or to find suitable oviposition sites. Larval learning has never been seriously considered because they have limited foraging capabilities and usually depend on adults as concerns their food choices.

Effectiveness of some botanical insecticides against Spodoptera littoralis Boisduvala (Lepidoptera: Noctudiae), Myzus persicae Sulzer (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae)

open access: yesPlant Protection Science, 2009
Biological efficiency of botanical insecticides was determined that were obtained from Pongamia glabra, Azadirachta indica and Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium against Spodoptera littoralis, Myzus persicae and Tetranychus urticae on greenhouse plants.

The Arabidopsis Pep-PEPR system is induced by herbivore feeding and contributes to JA-mediated plant defence against herbivory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dysfunction of the Pep-PEPR system and its interplay with JA signalling results in increased plant susceptibility towards herbivore attack indicating that endogenous signalling also contributes to herbivore ...

Antifeedant Activity Evaluation of Withanolides from Jaborosa integrifolia

open access: yesMolecules, 2000
Antifeedant activity of the 4-deoxi-27-hydroxi-withanolides (1, 2 y 3) isolated from Jaborosa integrifolia (Solanaceae) was investigated in caterpillar Spodoptera littoralis on Leaf Disk Choice Bioassay.

Potential of Achyrocline satureioides Ethanolic Extract in the Control of Spodoptera littoralis

open access: yesBiology and Life Sciences Forum
The species Spodoptera littoralis is one of the most destructive agricultural pests in tropical and subtropical areas, causing significant losses to farmers; alternative forms of control are therefore necessary.

Possible repair of UV-damaged Spodoptera littoralis nucleopolyhedrovirus DNA via generation of mutant carrying photolyase gene with DNA repair activity

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2023
Background Baculoviruses can be inactivated by ultraviolet (UV) light, which limits their application as an efficient biopesticide. In an attempt to enhance virus resistance to UV inactivation, a photolyase gene, isolated from Spodoptera litura ...

New records of moths (Insecta, Lepidoptera) from urban gardens on Terceira Island with new data on recently introduced species to the Azores [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The urban Duque da Terceira Garden, in the main town of Angra do Heroísmo (Terceira, Azores), was investigated to describe the species composition of moths (Insecta, Lepidoptera).

Treatment of cotton with plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria consortium alters host location and oviposition of Spodoptera exigua

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Two plant‐growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) consortia (AU8 and TX1) induced a deterrence of host plant location and oviposition behavior of Spodoptera exigua females in both susceptible and resistant cotton plants. Most of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased in PGPR‐treated plants compared to untreated plants. # indicates treatments not

Heritability of immune function in the caterpillar Spodoptera littoralis [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 2002
Phenoloxidase (PO) is believed to be a key mediator of immune function in insects and has been implicated both in non-self recognition and in resistance to a variety of parasites and pathogens, including baculoviruses and parasitoids. Using larvae of the Egyptian cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis, we found that despite its apparent importance ...
