Occurrence of Chaetomidium arxii on sunn pest in Iran [PDF]
Chaetomidium arxii was recovered from dead, overwintering adults of Eurygaster integriceps in northern Iran. The species was identified based on morphological characteristics as well as sequence data from LSU and ITS-rDNA regions. This is first report on

A study to clarify whether sunn pest (Eurygaster integriceps) increases amylase activity in wheat. [PDF]
There is uncertainty as to whether amylase is injected into wheat kernels by the sunn pest (SP). There are conflicting results in the literature as to whether the amylolytic activity (AA) of insect-damaged wheat is increased. Therefore, the research question of this study is whether amylase is injected into wheat kernels by SP.

Tissue-specific transcriptomic and endocrine signatures of obligatory reproductive diapause in Eurygaster integriceps [PDF]
Obligatory reproductive diapause is a hormonally regulated, developmentally programmed state occurring independently of environmental cues. Despite its prevalence in univoltine insects, the molecular regulation remains unclear.
