Climate Change Can Generate Enemy-Free Space for Crop-Feeding Herbivores. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Magnitude and direction of change in parasitoid pressure for 14 agricultural pests subject to climate‐driven distributional shifts. Pests are organized per increasing parasitoid pressure under current climatic conditions (X axis). Bubble size is reflective of the (absolute) area affected by a given pest under a given scenario.

Genome‐Wide Association Study of Resistance to Cassava Green Mite Pest and Related Traits in Cassava

Crop Science, Volume 58, Issue 5, Page 1907-1918, September–October 2018., 2018
Cassava green mite [CGM, Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar)] is a dry‐season pest that usually feeds on the underside of young leaves causing leaf chlorosis, stunted growth, and root yield reduction by 80%. Since cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) leaves and roots serve as a primary staple food source, a decline in cassava yield can lead to household food,
