Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.
Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

Enhancing Stored Wheat Shelf Life: Advances in Storage Technologies, Integrated Pest Management, and Climate‐Responsive Approaches

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent advances in agricultural production and storage systems have contributed to a significant enhancement in annual wheat production and preservation, aimed at satisfying increasing consumer demands. Despite such potential developments, there are still significant post‐harvest losses in stored wheat, induced by destructive pests, grain ...

Generation cycles in experimental populations of a multivoltine insect

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 782-794, May 2026.
Although theory suggests various mechanisms by which environmental and ecological factors may drive generational fluctuations, our field‐cage experiment is the first to demonstrate how internal dynamics and external disturbances jointly produce synchronised, large‐scale outbreak cycles.

Higher and more stable biological control of multiple herbivore species in diversified strip cropping systems

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our results highlight that strip cropping can enhance and stabilize biological control. Even simple two‐crop designs provide clear benefits over monocultures, while increasing crop diversity to six crops offers additional advantages. Because the temporal stability of biological control increases with crop diversity, designing strip cropping systems ...

Suitability of Ectomyelois ceratoniae Zeller (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) as host for two local Trichogramma species (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) and possible implications on biological control programs

Journal of Oasis Agriculture and Sustainable Development, 2021
In this study, laboratory tests were conducted to evaluate the suitability of Ectomyelois ceratoniae (Zeller) eggs as host for the development of two Trichogramma species: Trichogramma cacoeciae (Marchal) and Trichogramma bourarachae (Pintureau and ...

Spectral Characterization of the Life Stages and Physiological Responses of Diatraea saccharalis Fabricius (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) Larvae Parasitized by Cotesia flavipes Cameron (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 5, Page 436-452, May 2026.
Hyperspectral proximal sensing was used to characterize the life stages and physiological responses of Diatraea saccharalis and to detect parasitism by Cotesia flavipes. Distinct spectral signatures differentiated eggs, larval instars, pupae, and adults, as well as live, dead, and parasitized larvae.
