Quantification of Thrips Damage Using Ilastik and ImageJ Fiji

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2018
Quantification of insect damage is an essential measurement for identifying resistance in plants. In screening for host plant resistance against thrips, the total damaged leaf area is used as a criterion to determine resistance levels. Here we present an

Seasonal shifts in network structure and species roles in a tropical island plant–flower visitor community Cambios estacionales en la estructura de la red de interacciones entre plantas y visitantes florales y en los roles de las especies en una comunidad insular tropical

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Constant visitation rates across the flowering season masked major shifts in plant and flower visitor interaction structure, specialization, species roles and trait‐driven patterns shaping interaction intensity. Plants and flower visitors changed ecological roles over time, with native flower visitors playing key roles in maintaining network cohesion ...

Assessment of Small‐Scale Laboratory Rearing Systems for Frankliniella occidentalis (Western Flower Thrips) Using a Single Female

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reliable laboratory rearing of Frankliniella occidentalis is critical for experimental consistency in entomological research. This study validates and optimises three small‐scale rearing systems initiated from a single female thrips using various organic fruits, flowers and pollen as feed, along with moist cotton, blotting paper and ...

Thrips

open access: yes, 2013
Thrips diversity on Suaeda plants In addition to three Aeolothrips species discussed here, two other species (Ankothrips zayandicus and Haplothrips herajus) were recently described from Suaeda sp. (Minaei et al. 2012; Minaei & Aleosfoor 2013). Moreover, large numbers of Eremiothrips varius have also been found on this plant (Minaei et al.

Field Attraction of Natural Enemies to Methyl Salicylate Differs Between Annual and Perennial Cropping Systems

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Methyl salicylate (MeSA) is an herbivore‐induced plant volatile (HIPV) known to attract natural enemies of herbivores; however, its effectiveness as a semiochemical across diverse cropping systems and broad geographic regions remains unclear. In this 2‐year field study, we sampled natural enemies using MeSA‐baited and unbaited (control) yellow

Thermogenesis‐derived spatiotemporal microclimates guide pollinator movement to ensure pollination

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Alocasia odora's microclimatic heterogeneity guides Colocasiomyia fly movement within its inflorescence. During the female stage, midday heat in the upper spadix pushes flies down to the cooler female zone. During the male stage, nocturnal warmth in the upper part pulls flies upward and spathe constriction closes the lower female chamber.
