Invasive insect genetics: Start codon targeted (SCoT) markers provide superior data to describe genetic diversity of brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys, in a newly colonized region

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 10, Page 1097-1111, October 2025.
In this study, we assessed the genetic diversity of Halyomorpha halys, an invasive agricultural pest, in Türkiye using start codon targeted (SCoT) markers and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences. SCoT markers revealed high polymorphism (91.4%) and six genetic clusters among 71 specimens from 12 provinces, with Trabzon showing ...

Characteristics of the meconia of European egg parasitoids of Halyomorpha halys [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hymenoptera Research, 2020
Halyomorpha halys is a severe invasive Asian pest worldwide and classical biological control is foreseen as the most promising control method. Egg parasitoids appear to be the most important natural enemies of this pest, especially the Asian hymenopteran

Attraction of Telenomus remus to Egg Volatiles of Spodoptera litura and Oviposition‐Induced Plant Volatiles From Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
The parasitoid T. remus was attracted to OIPVs and S. litura egg volatiles. At lower concentrations of 1 and 10 ng/μL the parasitoid showed the highest attraction. The binary combinations of linalool (L) with tetracosane (T) and linalool (L) with cis‐3‐hexenyl acetate (C) strongly attracted the parasitoids.

Effect of Pest Control Strategies on Arthropod Pests of Apple in Europe: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 6, Page 957-987, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a major fruit crop in Europe. More than 200 phytophagous arthropod species thrive in European apple orchards, several of which are economically important pests. Due to the pest pressure on apple production, consumer demand for residue‐free products and current policies to make food production in the European ...

Molecular identification of the brown marmorated stink bug’s egg parasitoids by species-specific PCR collected from Beijing, China

open access: yesCABI Agriculture and Bioscience, 2023
Brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Hemiptera: Penta-tomidae), is a highly polyphagous and invasive insect pest with more than 300 plant species as hosts, including a wide range of economic crops.

What is the potential for artificial selection of insect biological control traits? A systematic review of their genetic variation, heritability, and evolvability

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 6, Page 463-497, June 2025.
Growing interest in optimizing biocontrol traits, particularly due to Nagoya Protocol constraints, necessitates understanding their heritability and genetic variation. This systematic review of 5209 studies on arthropod biocontrol agents yielded 94 relevant articles, with 42 providing heritability values.
