ITS-2 sequences-based identification of Trichogramma species in South America
Brazilian Journal of BiologyITS2 (Internal transcribed spacer 2) sequences have been used in systematic studies and proved to be useful in providing a reliable identification of Trichogramma species. DNAr sequences ranged in size from 379 to 632 bp. In eleven T.

Parthenogenetic vs. sexual reproduction in oribatid mite communities
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 The dominance of sex in Metazoa is enigmatic. Sexual species allocate resources to the production of males, while potentially facing negative effects such as the loss of well‐adapted genotypes due to recombination, and exposure to diseases and predators ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 11, Page 1226-1235, November 2025.This study evaluated food sources for adult Closterocerus coffeellae survival and oviposition behavior. Adults were fed honey (10%), Hibiscus nectar, an artificial diet, or received no food. Male survival was higher on the artificial diet, whereas honey (10%) increased female survival.

Infection dynamics of endosymbionts that manipulate arthropod reproduction
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 1787-1812, October 2025.ABSTRACT A large proportion of arthropod species are infected with endosymbionts, some of which selfishly alter host reproduction. The currently known forms of parasitic reproductive manipulations are male‐killing, feminization, cytoplasmic incompatibility, parthenogenesis induction and distortion of sex allocation.
