Appetitive and Aversive Learning in Spodoptera littoralis Larvae [PDF]
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.

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

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]
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 ...
