(2012-08-01)Hessian fly (HF) is a biotrophic insect that interacts with wheat on a gene-for-gene basis. We profiled changes in membrane lipids in two isogenic wheat lines: a susceptible line and its backcrossed offspring containing ...
-
(2017-12-7)At the global level, approximately one-third of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted each year. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, more than 40 percent of food losses ...
-
(2013-04-24)The biotypic diversity of the greenbug [Schizaphis graminum (Rondani)] and development of lines with tolerance to greenbug feeding are ongoing concerns of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.] breeding programs in the ...
-
(2017-12-7)Mites can be a major pest in our foods—especially ham and cheese. (US Fed News Service) Currently, there is a huge interest for reducing our impact on the ozone layer, so researchers are looking at ways to prevent pests ...
-
(2012-02-20)Adult Hippodamia convergens (Guerin) in reproductive diapause were collected from a spring cohort in western Kansas and held in pairs for the duration of their lives to assess female reproductive schedules under conditions ...
-
(2013-12-04)Rhopalosiphum padi, Schizaphis graminum, and Sitobion avenae are three of the most destructive aphid species of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). They can significantly reduce wheat yields directly by feeding and indirectly ...
-
(2017-12-7)In the year 2015, the USA produced 597 Million bushels of sorghum and planted 7.85 million acres. Kansas produced 281.6 million bushels and planted 3.2 million acres. With Green bug aphid and the sugarcane aphid a major ...

Studying insects’ response to disturbance can tell us how these organisms survive in hostile environments. Studies have shown that soldier beetles can have different mating behaviors depending on the species around them ...
-
(2013-03-25)Laboratory experiments were conducted to quantify effects of resistant and susceptible host plants on the preimaginal and adult biologies of the squash bug, Anasa tristis (De Geer), and its egg parasitoid, Gryon pennsylvanicum ...
-
(2014-01-31)Carboxylesterases (CarEs) play key roles in metabolism of specific hormones and detoxification of dietary and environmental xenobiotics in insects. We sequenced and characterized CarE cDNAs putatively derived from two ...
-
(2013-04-03)β-N-acetylglucosaminidases are crucial enzymes involved in chitin degradation in insects. We identified a β-N-acetylglucosaminidase gene (LmNAG1) from Locusta migratoria. The full-length cDNA of LmNAG1 consists of 2667 ...
-
(2014-05-08)Enterococci are important nosocomial pathogens, with Enterococcus faecalis most commonly responsible for human infections. In this study, we used several measures to test the hypothesis that house flies, Musca domestica ...
-
(2012-02-20)1. We observed native populations of Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) around Beijing, China, over 2 years and performed choice and no-choice mating tests between melanic and succinic (non-melanic) beetles in the laboratory. 2. ...
