Chromosome‐level genome assembly of the aster leafhopper (Macrosteles quadrilineatus) reveals the role of environment and microbial symbiosis in shaping pest insect genome evolution

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 3, April 2024.
Abstract Leafhoppers comprise over 20,000 plant‐sap feeding species, many of which are important agricultural pests. Most species rely on two ancestral bacterial symbionts, Sulcia and Nasuia, for essential nutrition lacking in their phloem and xylem plant sap diets. To understand how pest leafhopper genomes evolve and are shaped by microbial symbioses,

Commodity risk assessment of Petunia spp. and Calibrachoa spp. unrooted cuttings from Kenya

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 2024.
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to evaluate the probability of entry of pests (likelihood of pest freedom at entry), including both regulated and non‐regulated pests, associated with unrooted cuttings of the genera Petunia and Calibrachoa produced under physical isolation in Kenya. The relevance of any pest for

Reference genes selection for quantitative gene expression studies in tea green leafhoppers, Empoasca onukii Matsuda

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2018
Empoasca onukii Matsuda is one of the most devastating pests of the tea plant (Camellia sinensis). Still, the presumed expression stability of its reference genes (RGs) has not been analyzed. RGs are essential for accurate and reliable gene expression analysis, so this absence has hampered the study of the insect's molecular biology.

EU rules for organic wine production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
As of August 2012, almost one year ago, organic wines can be labelled "organic", with the EU organic logo. This means wine can now be properly recognised as an organic product.

Comparative analysis of habitat suitability for a crop and its primary insect herbivore: providing insights for crop planting and pest management strategies

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Habitat suitability analysis using species distribution models (SDMs) presents a valuable approach for determining appropriate land utilization strategies and crop planting decisions, which are vital to achieve optimal agricultural productivity and ...
