The maize lipoxygenase, ZmLOX10, mediates green leaf volatile, jasmonate, and herbivore-induced plant volatile production for defense against insect attack
Shawn A. Christensen,Andriy Nemchenko,Eli J. Borrego,Ian V.J. Murray,Islam S. Sobhy,Liz Bosak,Stacy L. DeBlasio,Matthias Erb,Christelle A. M. Robert,Kathy A. Vaughn,Cornelia Herrfurth,James H. Tumlinson,Ivo Feussner,David A. Jackson,Ted C. J. Turlings,Jurgen Engelberth,Christian Nansen,Robert B. Meeley,Michael V. Kolomiets +18 more
TL;DR: It is shown that products and signals derived from a single Zea mays (maize) lipoxygenase (LOX), ZmLOX10, are critical for both direct and indirect defenses to herbivory, and that LOX10-dependent metabolites confer immunity against insect attack.
Journal ArticleDOI
Knockdown Mortality, Repellency, and Residual Effects of Insecticides for Control of Adult Bactericera cockerelli (Hemiptera: Psyllidae)
Ali Hosseini Gharalari,Christian Nansen,D. S. Lawson,J. Gilley,Joseph E. Munyaneza,Kathy Vaughn +5 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that abamectin has a high knockdown effect on adult B. cockerelli and that it can be used effectively in insecticide rotation programs against adult B., which is the vector of a bacterial pathogen causing zebra chip (ZC) disease in potato.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cultivar Preferences of Ovipositing Wheat Stem Sawflies as Influenced by the Amount of Volatile Attractant
David K. Weaver,Micaela Buteler,Megan L. Hofland,Justin B. Runyon,Justin B. Runyon,Christian Nansen,Christian Nansen,Luther E. Talbert,Peggy F. Lamb,Gregg R. Carlson +9 more
TL;DR: The behavioral preference for two wheat varieties was assessed in the context of developing trap crops for this insect, and Reeder was significantly preferred by ovipositing wheat stem sawfly females.
Book ChapterDOI
Insect-Based Bioconversion: Value from Food Waste
TL;DR: Both the need to increase capacity and to maximize the potential benefits of using insects as bioconverters of food waste are discussed, which provide both theoretical and practical solutions for expanding insect-based bioconversion to food waste streams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remote Sensing and Reflectance Profiling in Entomology
TL;DR: This review highlights how remote sensing influences entomological research by enabling scientists to nondestructively monitor how individual insects respond to treatments and ambient conditions.
