Thrips as unique vectors of tospoviruses [PDF]
, 2008 Een tiental tripssoorten brengt tospovirussen van geïnfecteerde naar gezonde planten over, waaronder het zeer schadelijke tomatenbrons-vlekkenvirus (TSWV). De relatie tussen de tripsen als virusoverbrenger en deze virussen is uniek.

Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge
Insect Science, EarlyView.Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...

Means of environment-friendly protection of white cabbage against the onion thrips [PDF]
, 2002 fejes káposzta-fajta ellenállóságának felmérésére került sor szabadföldi körülmények között, a dohánytripsz spontán betelepedése mellett kialakuló kártétel mértéke alapján. Minden fajta károsodott kisebb-nagyobb mértékben.

Characterization of the dynamic microbiome evolution across thrips species
Insect Science, EarlyView.Comprehensive survey of the microbiome in thrips. The dominant bacterial genera found in thrips include intracellular ones, such as Wolbachia and Spiroplasma, and extracellular ones, including Serratia, Pantoea, and Acinetobacter. We isolated and sequenced high‐quality genomes of two dominant symbionts, Pantoea dispersa and Serratia marcescens.

Comparative toxicity of certain medicinal plants against invasive chili thrips, Thrips parvispinus (Karny) [PDF]
Chilli thrips, Thrips parvispinus, is an invasive pest causing significant yield losses of up to 80%. To manage this, pest farmers rely only upon insecticides and this situation leads to insecticidal residues being higher than the maximum residual level (

Responses of Soil Arthropod Communities to Varying Shading Levels in Agriphotovoltaic Systems
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Soil fauna was primarily influenced by crop type and season rather than AgriPhotovoltaic (APV) panels. Elevated panels increased soil temperature and soil organic matter in early wheat stages, while shading enhanced soil moisture for tomatoes, benefiting moisture‐sensitive taxa.

Accuracy of occurrence and abundance estimates from insect metabarcoding
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract DNA metabarcoding—high‐throughput sequencing of barcode regions from bulk samples—has become a key tool for insect biodiversity assessment. Yet, how methodological choices affect the accuracy of metabarcoding data remains insufficiently explored. In this paper, we ask: (1) How does the lysis method (non‐destructive lysis vs.
