Horticulturalists and gardeners in temperate regions often claim that planting marigolds next to tomato plants protects the tomatoes from the glasshouse whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood). If shown to hold true, this technique could be used in

Small RNAs from Bemisia tabaci are transferred to Solanum lycopersicum phloem during feeding
The phloem-feeding whitefly Bemisia tabaci is a serious pest to a broad range of host plants, including many economically important crops such as tomato. These insects serve as a vector for various devastating plant viruses.

Stronger Antipredatory Vigilance of Prey to Olfactory Cues From Injured Vulnerable Conspecifics
Eggs of spider mites are more vulnerable to predators. Reproductive females of spider mites are more vigilant to olfactory cues from injured eggs compared to that from injured adults and deutonymphs. ABSTRACT Predation risk is a key evolutionary force shaping prey behaviors and life‐history strategies across taxa. Predators often target vulnerable life

This study investigated how variation in prey consumption influences immature development and adult morphometric traits in the predatory mite Amblyseius herbicolus. Mites that ate more prey attained a larger size at maturity but did not develop more rapidly. Several morphometric traits were also significantly influenced by diet.

BIORATIONAL INSECTICIDE ADOPTION AND CONVENTIONAL INSECTICIDE USE: A SIMULTANEOUS, LIMITED DEPENDENT VARIABLE MODEL [PDF]
Using data reporting section-level pesticide use for all of Arizona, this study estimates how early-season adoption of new biorational insecticides reduced subsequent broad-spectrum insecticide applications in cotton.

Climate Change Drives the Distribution of Insect Vectors for GLRaV‐3 on a Global Scale
The distribution range of seven insect vectors of GLRaV‐3 were predicted by MaxEnt model. Thermal conditions were a vital factor constraining the potential distribution ranges of all vector insects. Centroid shifts suggested that the potential distribution range of soft scale will move northward under climate change. Our study provides implications for
