Release strategies of Telenomus podisi for control of Euschistus heros: a computational modeling approach [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDThe egg‐parasitoid wasp Telenomus podisi has received attention as a biological‐control agent for one of the most important soybean pests in Brazil, the stink bug Euschistus heros. As yet, no studies have conclusively established strategies for the release of T. podisi. We developed a computational model using cellular automata in the

We investigated how ultraviolet (UV) radiation affects the foraging behaviours of two species of female stink bug egg parasitoids. UV‐exposed microhabitats were attractive to parasitoids and reduced their daily walking activity in the laboratory. UV attenuation did not reduce parasitoid host discovery and host exploitation rates on soybean plants in ...

Microfluidic metabarcoding of eDNA derived from the surfaces of flowers was able, to a degree, to document pollinator communities. Abstract Pollinators are declining globally, and this loss can reduce plant reproduction, erode critical ecosystem services and resilience, and drive economic losses.

Differential impacts of pesticides on Euschistus heros (Hem.: Pentatomidae) and its parasitoid Telenomus podisi (Hym.: Platygastridae). [PDF]
AbstractEuschistus heros (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) primarily attack the pods and seeds of soybean plants, causing severe economic losses in Neotropical Region, and chemical control is essential to avoid these losses. Thus, insecticides more effective against this pest and less toxic to Telenomus podisi Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) -

Telenomus podisi Parasitism on Dichelops melacanthus and Podisus nigrispinus Eggs at Different Temperatures [PDF]
Dichelops melacanthus (Dallas) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) is the most important stink bug species that feeds on maize in South America, and it is frequently controlled with chemical pesticides. As an alternative, more sustainable management strategies can be applied, among which the egg parasitoid Telenomus podisi Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae ...

Insects in agroecosystems – an introduction
Agroecology is the study of linkages in agricultural systems and it derives from the need to understand and restore natural connections and ecological complexity to control insect and other pest populations. The present special issue addresses a rich variety of agroecosystems spanning the globe, involving the roles of a range of insects on a great many

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a influência de voláteis de soja, induzidos pela herbivoria dos percevejos Euschistus heros e Nezara viridula, no comportamento de busca de hospedeiros dos parasitoides Telenomus podisi e Trissolcus basalis.

Transcriptome-Based Identification of Highly Similar Odorant-Binding Proteins among Neotropical Stink Bugs and Their Egg Parasitoid. [PDF]
Olfaction plays a fundamental role in insect survival through resource location and intra and interspecific communications. We used RNA-Seq to analyze transcriptomes for odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) from major stink bug pest species in Brazil ...
