High-resolution QTL mapping in Tetranychus urticae reveals acaricide-specific responses and common target-site resistance after selection by different METI-I acaricides [PDF]
, 2019 Arthropod herbivores cause dramatic crop losses, and frequent pesticide use has led to widespread resistance in numerous species. One such species, the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, is an extreme generalist herbivore and a major worldwide

Active predators do not necessarily specialize in sedentary prey: A simulation model
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, EarlyView.Active predators, which move to find food, are assumed to specialize in sedentary prey. This study used an individual‐based simulation to test whether this assumption holds. The results show that active predators do not always specialize in sedentary prey; instead, prey choice greatly depends on prey spatial pattern and competition with ambush ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT With climate change, abiotic and biotic stresses such as drought and herbivory are predicted to further diminish agricultural productivity. Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill), a crop of global economic importance, is vulnerable to both. However, the interactive effects of drought and herbivory on soybeans haven't been explored, especially ...
