Nitrogen fertiliser affects the functional response and prey consumption of Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) feeding on cereal aphids

TL;DR: In this article, the responses of Harmonia axyridis to cereal aphids, Rhopalosiphum padi and Sitobion avenae were examined and the functional response curve, rate of successful search and handling time provided the information needed to understand the predator-prey interaction between H.axyridis and these cereals aphids.

Role of phenolic compounds during antioxidative responses of winter triticale to aphid and beetle attack.

TL;DR: It was found, that infestation by insects induced a high increase in the content of hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anion radical within resistant Lamberto cv, whereas in sensitive Marko cv.

Decimal growth stages for precision wheat production in changing environments

TL;DR: The utility of the decimal growth stage (DGS) scoring system for cereals is reviewed and genetic, biochemical and physiological analysis to develop greater understanding of stress acclimation during the vegetative state, and tolerance at meiosis, does require more precision than DGS can provide.

Effect of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, ornithine and γγ-aminobutyric acid on winter wheat resistance to grain aphid

TL;DR: The association between the concentrations of L‐3,4‐dihydroxyphenylalanine, ornithine, and γ‐aminobutyric acid in winter wheat cultivars with their antibiotic resistance to the grain aphid Sitobion avenae (F.) (Hom., Aphididae) was studied.
