Adult Tea Green Leafhoppers, Empoasca onukii (Matsuda), Change Behaviors under Varying Light Conditions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Insect behaviors are often influenced by light conditions including photoperiod, light intensity, and wavelength. Understanding pest insect responses to changing light conditions may help with developing alternative strategies for pest control. Little is

AgronomyHerbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) serve as powerful defense mechanisms that help plants mitigate pest-induced stress. Geraniol is a HIPV released by tea leaves in response to damage inflicted by tea green leafhoppers.

Genome-wide identification of tea plant (Camellia sinensis) BAHD acyltransferases reveals their role in response to herbivorous pests [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyBackground BAHD acyltransferases are among the largest metabolic protein domain families in the genomes of terrestrial plants and play important roles in plant growth and development, aroma formation, and biotic and abiotic stress responses.

Avoidance, escape and microstructural adaptations of the tea green leafhopper to water droplets. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 AbstractRain and dew droplets can dislodge or drown small insects and may be important factors that drive adaptations for avoidance and escape. Studying the microstructure of small insects and insect behaviour can help understand these adaptations.

Involvement of histone deacetylase CsHDA2 in regulating (E)-nerolidol formation in tea (Camellia sinensis) exposed to tea green leafhopper infestation. [PDF]
Hortic Res, 2022 Abstract Herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) help the tea plant (Camellia sinensis) adapt to environmental stress, and they are also quality-related components of tea. However, the upstream mechanism regulating the herbivore-induced expression of volatile biosynthesis genes is unclear, especially at the level of epigenetic ...

Field evaluation of resistance to tea green leafhopper, Empoasca onukii, in tea plant [PDF]
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 2021 AbstractThe tea green leafhopper, Empoasca onukii Matsuda (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae, Typhlocybinae), is a serious pest of tea plants in East Asia. In the laboratory, tea genotypes CA278, Cd19, and Cd289 [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze (Theaceae)] sustain fewer feeding damage symptoms known as hopperburn than the susceptible cultivar ‘Yabukita,’ and E.

Microsatellite markers from tea green leafhopper Empoasca (Matsumurasca) onukii: a powerful tool for studying genetic structure in tea plantations. [PDF]
BMC Genet, 2016 Tea green leafhopper is one of the most dominant pests in Chinese tea plantations. Recent evidence, including morphological and molecular data, revealed that tea green leafhopper in China is the same species as in Japan, Empoasca (Matsumurasca) onukii Matsuda.
