Root herbivores pose a major threat to agricultural crops. They are difficult to control and their damage often goes unnoticed until the larvae reach their most devastating late instar stages. Crop diversification can reduce pest pressure, ...
Sequestration of cucurbitacins from cucumber plants by Diabrotica balteata larvae provides little protection against biological control agents [0.03%]
西瓜皮苷类物质的封存作用无法有效保护取食黄瓜植株的条纹深斑姬小蠹免受天敌侵害

Cucurbitaceae plants produce cucurbitacins, bitter triterpenoids, to protect themselves against various insects and pathogens. Adult banded cucumber beetles (Diabrotica balteata), a common pest of maize and cucurbits, sequester cucurbitacin...
Trichomes mediate plant-herbivore interactions in two Cucurbitaceae species through pre- and post-ingestive ways [0.03%]
两种葫芦科植物的腺体毛通过摄取前和摄取后的方式介导植物-食草昆虫相互作用

Plant structural defenses such as trichomes exert a significant selection pressure on insect herbivores. However, whether variation in structural defense traits affects common herbivores in related plant species is less understood. Here, we...
The stop-feed effect of cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) and the efficacy of brodifacoum combined with cholecalciferol in Y139C-resistant Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus) [0.03%]
维生素D3的止食效应及其与brodifacoum联合应用对黄鼠尾藻Y139C耐药棕背鼠(Rattusnorvegicus)的效果研究

Nicole Klemann et al.
Second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides potentially build persistent residues in animals and accordingly pose a risk of secondary poisoning. We examined the effect of a low concentration of cholecalciferol in brodifacoum bait on bait c...
Selecting aggressiveness to improve biological control agents efficiency [0.03%]
选择天敌的凶猛性以提高微生物农用杀虫剂的效果

Pierre Royer et al.
In agroecosystems, omnivorous predators are recognized as potential biological control agents because of the numerous pest species they prey on. Nonetheless, it could be possible to enhance their efficiency through artificial selection on t...
Reproductive interference and Satyrisation: mechanisms, outcomes and potential use for insect control [0.03%]
生殖干扰和Satyrisation:机制、结果及潜在的昆虫控制应用方法

Reproductive Interference occurs when interactions between individuals from different species disrupt reproductive processes, resulting in a fitness cost to one or both parties involved. It is typically observed between individuals of close...
Facultative and obligate diapause phenotypes in populations of the European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus [0.03%]
欧洲云杉 bark 螨虫 Ips typographus 种群中的可塑性和专性滞育表型
Martin Schebeck,Nina Dobart,Gregory J Ragland et al.
Martin Schebeck et al.
The bark beetle Ips typographus is the most destructive insect pest in Norway spruce-dominated forests. Its potential to establish multiple generations per year (multivoltinism) is one major trait that makes this beetle a severe pest. Ips t...
Altered capsaicin levels in domesticated chili pepper varieties affect the interaction between a generalist herbivore and its ectoparasitoid [0.03%]
辣椒人工栽培种中辣椒素含量的变化会影响一种广食性植食昆虫与其外寄生蜂的互作关系
Yosra Chabaane,Carla Marques Arce,Gaëtan Glauser et al.
Yosra Chabaane et al.
Plant domestication has commonly reduced levels of secondary metabolites known to confer resistance against insects. Chili pepper is a special case because the fruits of different varieties have been selected for lower and higher levels of ...
