In addition to providing nutrients to plants during symbiosis, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi can enhance plant defenses against herbivorous insects and pathogens, including induced systemic resistance. Previous studies have demonstrated that Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae perform better in maize plants colonized by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, which generally exhibit greater growth and higher nitrogen and phosphorus contents. However, these studies were limited to a small number of maize varieties. Additionally, prior research has not considered the host preference of S. frugiperda females for noncolonized versus arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi-colonized maize plants, although female choice can significantly influence progeny performance. In this study, we evaluated the effects of Rhizophagus irregularis (Blaszk, Wubet, Renker, & Buscot) C. Walker & A.

Overall, females preferred ovipositing on uncolonized seedlings to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi-colonized seedlings, independent of the inbred lines. Larval performance was affected by inbred lines and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi colonization. Larvae feeding on noncolonized maize seedlings exhibited significantly higher weights than those feeding on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi-colonized seedlings.

Spotted lanternfly feeding affects crop yield and fruit quality while increasing production costs through the increased use of insecticides for its management. This insect has a broad host range with tree of heaven and grapevines being preferred hosts. Although spotted lanternfly can develop when feeding solely on grapevines, the extent to which different grape cultivars support its survival and reproduction is less clear. We investigated the effect of grapevines and tree of heaven diets on spotted lanternfly survival, development, and reproduction. We fed nymphs and adults on either single or mixed diets of tree of heaven and 4 grapevine cultivars: 'Cabernet Franc' (Vitis vinifera), 'Chardonnay' (V. vinifera), 'Concord' (V. labrusca), and 'Sugargate' (Muscadinia rotundifolia). We found that single Sugargate diets supported spotted lanternfly development only to the fourth-instar stage. The development time was consistent across diet treatments, but reproduction varied significantly. Spotted lanternfly fed exclusively on grapevines had limited reproductive capability, with only 2 out of 5 females in the Chardonnay treatment laying a single egg mass each, averaging 13 eggs. While spotted lanternflies fed on mixed diets or single tree of heaven laid an average of 2.53 egg masses and 89.7 eggs per female. In conclusion, some single grapevine diets support development to adulthood but reproduction is limited without tree of heaven. This suggests that reducing tree of heaven near vineyards could help growers manage spotted lanternfly populations and minimize crop damage.</p>","PeriodicalId":11751,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Entomology","volume":" ","pages":"523-531"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143988266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its influence on ground-dwelling arthropod communities, especially in disturbance-sensitive environments, such as karst areas, remains inadequately understood. To address this knowledge gap, we conducted a study from April to September 2023, in a karst area to evaluate the impacts of tobacco-soybean intercropping on ground-dwelling arthropods and soil properties. Trapping methods were used to examine arthropod communities under 5 crop planting schemes: tobacco monoculture (CK1), soybean monoculture (CK2), soybean ridge and furrow intercropping (T1), soybean single-sided ridge intercropping (T2), and strip intercropping with alternate soybean and tobacco furrows (T3). Formicidae were the predominant taxa across all planting schemes, with more shared taxa than unique taxa among the planting schemes. Arthropod community composition was stable among the planting schemes, but notable variation was observed among tobacco growth stages. Although intercropping schemes did not significantly impact arthropod density and diversity, these metrics were lower during the seedling stage compared with other growth stages. The densities of herbivores and detritivores under CK2 were significantly higher than those observed under the other planting schemes. Predator and omnivore densities were not affected by the intercropping scheme. Total phosphorus content and soil compaction were critical soil properties that influenced arthropod communities, suggesting that these variables play a crucial role in shaping the trophic structure of the community under intercropping regimes.

In microcosm experiments, we studied the locomotion and predation behaviors of the generalist predator Orius insidiosus against thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) under different light spectra and intensities. We tested narrowband blue, green, and red spectra, 3 blue-red ratios, and a spectrum combining all 3 colors across a light-intensity gradient. Predators attacked prey under all lighting conditions, with 70% of individuals showing predatory behavior during observations. Spectral composition significantly influenced behaviors of interest, while light intensity had negligible effects. Narrowband spectra elicited the highest attack probabilities, but the mixed blue-red spectrum with a higher proportion of red light yielded the highest prey capture rates. The spectrum combining all 3 colors showed intermediate prey capture success. In complex environments with cucumber plants and 24-h artificial light sequences, prey capture probabilities followed similar trends to microcosm experiments. However, thrips survival rates remained similar across all lighting treatments.

The objective of this work was to determine the geography and phenology of K. solenopsae, SINV-1, SINV-2, and SINV-3 pathogens within the Tennessee hybrid-dominated populations. During 2015 to 2016, 62 fire ant-infested counties were gridded (12.1-by-12.1 km), and one colony sampled per grid in warm (July to October) and cool (January to April) periods. Fire ant species were determined by cuticular hydrocarbon and venom alkaloid analysis. Samples were evaluated for pathogens, parasitoids, and social form by molecular analysis. Ant frequencies were hybrid (74.1%), black (25.3%), and red (0.6%). Infection rates were low (9.5% and 1.3% in warm and cool periods, respectively).

We conducted controlled mating trials to assess how gender and sexual experience shape lateralized directional approaches (eg right- or left-biased) and turnings (eg 180° right- or left-biased) across the pre-copulatory, copulatory, and post-copulatory phases. Our results indicated that, in terms of gender, males were more likely to approach females, whereas females rarely initiated approaches, with both approaches each other simultaneously being infrequent. Both virgin and experienced males showed higher right-biased directional approaches than the front approaches to the females with more left-biased directional turns for successful intromissive copulation. Experienced males showed greater mating success than virgins. In contrast, experienced females exhibited lower mating success and longer post-copulatory interactions compared to virgin females, particularly duration of copulation. Post-copulatory interactions showed that antennal touching occurred more frequently in the experienced pairs. This study is the first to demonstrate the combined influence of gender and sexual experience on lateralized mating dynamics, with male courtship behaviors linked to learning processes.

This study aims to understand the effects of land use on the pollinator community by describing bee abundance, species richness and community composition in perennial conservation grasslands and adjacent annual row crops located in west central Nebraska. In 2022 and 2023, we collected and identified bees via sticky traps at 4 locations (center and edge of adjacent grasslands and crop fields) at 6 replicated sites. We collected 1,768 specimens from sticky traps, resulting in 70 species within 28 genera. Halictidae accounted for 84% of the specimens collected. Bee abundance was influenced by the simple effects of land use (grassland vs. crops), edge adjacency, and the month and year of collection. Differences in bee abundance within a collection date were found mostly in early 2022 (May and June) and late 2023 (September), when the crop center location was generally the lowest, with some evidence for spillover of bees from the grassland into the crop edge during the early summer months. Bee species richness was affected only by month and was not significantly different by land use and edge adjacency. Bee community composition overlapped across the 4 locations, although there were significant dissimilarities between crop fields and grasslands. Surveys of the plant community revealed very low abundance of blooming stems and plant taxonomic richness at crop locations for all sampling periods, while grassland locations were comparatively high and varied over time. Plant communities showed no overlap between crop field and grassland locations. Overall, we found that conservation grasslands, while not seeded specifically with pollinator-attractive forbs, provide diverse resources to support wild bee communities in west central Nebraska; crop edges may also provide non-plant resources such as nesting sites and irrigation water.
