Greenbug feeding-induced resistance to sugarcane aphids in sorghum
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Plants are attacked by multiple insect pest species and insect herbivory can alter plant defense mechanisms. The plant defense responses to a specific herbivore may also contribute to the herbivore growth/survival on plants. Feeding by one insect species

Variation in physiological host range in three strains of two species of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria [PDF]
, 2018 Knowledge of the host range of a biocontrol agent (BCA) is fundamental. Host range determines the BCA's economic potential, as well as the possible risk for non-target organisms. Entomopathogenic fungal strains belonging to the genus Beauveria are widely

Molecular and Structural Characterization of Foam Proteins from Mahanarva spectabilis (Distant, 1909) (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) Nymphs Reveals Adaptive Features and Potential Targets for Pest Control. [PDF]
Arch Insect Biochem PhysiolNymphs of Mahanarva spectabilis produce a protective foam that supports survival, reduces plant damage, and contributes to adult population establishment. Proteomic profiling combined with protein sequencing and structural modeling revealed foam proteins enriched in functional domains associated with environmental resilience.

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Multiple OCP isomers and/or metabolites along with their parent compounds were detected in commonly consumed fruits and vegetables of Bangladesh, possibly attributed to both recently and historically applied OCPs. However, all the detected values were below 0.01 mg/kg, indicating no potential human health risks through dietary intake. ABSTRACT Globally,
