piezodorus guildinii (hemiptera: pentatomidae) is an important soybean pest, and one of its main natural enemies is telenomus podisi (hymenoptera: platygastridae). rearing of the parasitoid is constrained by the hosts' egg quality, which deteriorates after few generations in laboratory, therefore, cold-stored host eggs utilization could be a useful tool for augmentative biological control. thus...

a suitable diet and oviposition substrate are two basic needs for successful mass rearing of orius spp. and this may reduce their production costs. the effect of various foods containing eggs of ephestia kuehniella and sitotroga cerealella with various pollens were investigated on the biological parameters of o. albidipennis in the laboratory. moreover, survival, hatching rate and fecundity of ...

The bean pod borer, Maruca vitrata Fabricius (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is a serious pantropical pest of grain legumes. A suitable artificial diet is desirable for producing uniform insects for commercial purposes or research. Three previously described artificial diets, 1 newly-developed artificial diet, and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. (Fabales: Fabaceae)), the natural hostplant of M. ...

The introduction and survival of zoonotic bacterial pathogens in poultry farming have been linked to bacterial association with free-living protozoa. To date, however, no information is available on the persistence of protozoan communities in these environments across consecutive rearing cycles and how it is affected by farm- and habitat-specific characteristics and management strategies. We th...

As wild fish stocks decline worldwide, land-based fish rearing is likely to be of increasing relevance to feeding future human generations. Little is known about the structure and role of microbial communities in fish aquaculture, particularly at larval developmental stages where the fish microbiome develops and host animals are most susceptible to disease. We employed next-generation sequencin...
