Roles of SfHSP70-7 in Thermal Tolerance, Insecticide Adaptability, and Reproductive Performance Under Combined Environmental Stress of the Rice Pest Sogatella furcifera (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) [PDF]

Insects
Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) regulates the stress tolerance and reproductive ability of insects. In this study, the SfHSP70-7 gene was cloned and identified from the rice pest Sogatella furcifera.

Seed Coating with Triflumezopyrim Induces the Rice Plant’s Defense and Inhibits the Brown Planthopper’s Feeding Behavior

Agronomy, 2022
Triflumezopyrim (TFM), a novel mesoionic insecticide, has been effective in controlling sucking insect pests such as the brown planthopper (BPH). However, the mechanism of TFM as a seed coating agent in paddy fields remains unclear.

Effects of a novel mesoionic insecticide, triflumezopyrim, on the feeding behavior of rice planthoppers, Nilaparvata lugens and Sogatella furcifera (Hemiptera: Delphacidae)

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
The rice planthoppers, Nilaparvata lugens and Sogatella furcifera, are important sap-sucking pests of rice in Asia. The mesoionic insecticide triflumezopyrim was previously shown to be highly effective in controlling both N. lugens and S. furcifera.

Comparative Insights Into Detoxification, Regulation, and Evolution of Neonicotinoid Resistance in Three Planthoppers. [PDF]

Arch Insect Biochem Physiol
Integrated neonicotinoid resistance mechanism in planthoppers. ABSTRACT Planthoppers, the brown planthopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens), white‐backed planthopper (WBPH, Sogatella furcifera), and small BPH (SBPH, Laodelphax striatellus) are among the most destructive rice pests in Asia.
