TL;DR: The apparent density of the indigenous fly population declined rapidly in the last quarter of 1995, followed by a population crash in the beginning of 1996, and time for 6 fly generations elapsed between the last catch of an indigenous fly and the end of the sterile male releases in December 1997.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study reveals a series of complex adaptations of the brown planthopper involving a variety of biological processes, that result in its highly destructive impact on the exclusive host rice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional analysis of rice NPR1-like genes reveals that OsNPR1/NH1 is the rice orthologue conferring disease resistance with enhanced herbivore susceptibility.
Yuexing Yuan,Sihui Zhong,Qun Li,Zeng-Rong Zhu,Yonggen Lou,Linyou Wang,Jianjun Wang,Muyang Wang,Qiaoli Li,Dong-Lei Yang,Zuhua He +10 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that rice has evolved an SA-mediated systemic acquired resistance similar to that in Arabidopsis, and also provides a practical approach for the improvement of disease resistance without the penalty of decreased herbivore resistance in rice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-country Evidence That Crop Diversification Promotes Ecological Intensification of Agriculture

TL;DR: It is concluded that a simple diversification approach, in this case the growth of nectar-producing plants, can contribute to the ecological intensification of agricultural systems.

TL;DR: A global ‘roadmap’ for insect conservation and recovery is proposed that entails the immediate implementation of several ‘no-regret’ measures that will act to slow or stop insect declines.
