Biological Characteristics and Thermal Requirements of Telenomus podisi and Trissolcus basalis (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) in Fresh and Cryopreserved Eggs of Euschistus heros and Nezara viridula (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)

open access: yesAgronomy
Brazil is one of the largest producers of pulses globally, and soybean ranks highly in terms of production. However, pests increase crop production costs and affect oilseed production and quality.

Insect–microbe interactions and their influence on organisms and ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
Insect‐symbiont interactions can have a variety of impacts on organisms and the ecosystem. These multitrophic interactions can result in differential attraction of beneficial insects or natural enemies. Additinoally, these interactions can influence plant and/or soil health as well as microbiome composition.

Stink Bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) of Minnesota: An Annotated Checklist and New State Records [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pentatomidae have been relatively poorly documented in Minnesota. Based on literature and museum records, an annotated checklist of the Pentatomidae of Minnesota was created. State-level and county-level records for Minnesota and the distribution of each

Humidity modifies species‐specific and age‐dependent heat stress effects in an insect host‐parasitoid interaction

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
Understanding how species and their interactions respond to extreme heat events is important to evaluate the impact of climate change. Using a well‐established host‐parasitoid system, we show that the life history responses of hosts and parasitoids to heat waves can largely depend on humidity levels. Abstract Climate change is projected to increase the

Shifts in host–parasitoid networks across community garden management and urban landscape gradients

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract Biological pest control relies on interactions between herbivores and their natural enemies. Maintaining this ecosystem service requires considering herbivore and natural enemy interactions and their response to anthropogenic change at multiple scales. In this study, we used ecological networks to quantify the network structure of interactions

Response of the parasitoid Telenomus podisi to induced volatiles from soybean damaged by stink bug herbivory and oviposition. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Egg parasitoids have a short time frame in which their host eggs are suitable for parasitism, and in several systems these parasitoids respond to plant volatiles induced by oviposition on the plant (either in isolation or in combination with feeding ...
