Article Abstract

The brown planthopper (BPH) and white-backed planthopper (WBPH) are serious rice insect pests that cannot overwinter in Korea and migrate from southeast Asian countries and China. In this study, we investigated the sublethal effects of imidacloprid and sulfoxaflor on the biological parameters and feeding behavior of planthoppers. These sublethal concentrations significantly decreased the net reproduction rate (), the intrinsic rate of increase (), and the mean generation time (). For BPHs, the total durations of nonpenetration (NP) waveform by imidacloprid (LC = 164.74 and LC = 176.48 min) and sulfoxaflor (LC = 235.57 and LC = 226.93 min) were significantly different from those in the control group (52.73 min). In addition, on WBPHs, the total durations of NP waveform by imidacloprid (LC = 203.69 and LC = 169.9 min) and sulfoxaflor (LC = 134.02 and LC = 252.14 min) were significantly different from those in the control group (45.18 min). Moreover, the LC and LC of these insecticides significantly decreased the phloem feeding time. In conclusion, imidacloprid had a better effect on the inhibition of feeding of the WBPH, and sulfoxaflor showed a better effect on the inhibition of feeding of the BPH. Therefore, it is suggested that treatment with sublethal concentrations of the above insecticides will reduce the feeding of BPHs and WBPHs on rice phloem.

Chlorpyrifos (CPF), a widely used organophosphate insecticide in cotton cultivation for controlling Aphis gossypii, has Binodoxys communis as the primary parasitic natural enemy of A. gossypii. This study evaluated the impact of two sub-lethal CPF concentrations (LC10 and LC30) on key biological parameters across two generations, transcriptomic responses, and symbiotic bacterial communities in B.

The arms race between insect-resistant secondary metabolites in plants and the detoxification genes of their natural enemies reveals the intricate co-evolutionary dynamics between the Asian corn borer (Ostrinia furnacalis) and its host plant, maize, and provides a new perspective for the potential control of pests. In this study, ELISA and transcriptome revealed that the glutathione S-transferases were involved in the detoxification of O. furnacalis to maize secondary metabolite 2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-(2H)-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one (DIMBOA).

Excessive use of agrochemicals results in contamination of water due to runoff or leaching. Insecticide induced-hormesis, a phenomenon characterized by low dose stimulation following exposure to insecticide, is crucial to insect pest resurgence. In this study, the effects of low or sublethal concentrations of emamectin benzoate and thiamethoxam on biological traits and genes expression were investigated for yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti following 48 h exposures.

The application of metabolomics to the water quality monitoring system, biological early warning system (BEWS), has been proposed; however, its development has not been attempted due to challenges such as high inter-individual variability and invasive sampling requirements in metabolomics applications. In this study, we employed an extracellular metabolomics (exo-metabolomics) approach using Daphnia magna to overcome these limitations and evaluate its utility in field river water conditions. From BEWS flow-through chambers, we collected exo-metabolites under ambient, copper exposure (0-80 μg/L), and post-exposure conditions.
