Reproductive strategies and food sources used by Acerophagus n. sp near coccois, a new successful parasitoid of the invasive mealybug Phenacoccus peruvianus by Beltrá, Aleixandre, Tena, Alejandro, Soto, Antonia

“…Phenacoccus peruvianus Granara de Willink (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) is a new invasive mealybug that causes important damages in ornamental plants in urban landscapes and nurseries in Southern Europe. Recently, a new species of genus Acerophagus Smith (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) has been recorded as the main parasitoid of P. peruvianus in Spain, displacing the native parasitoid Leptomastix epona Walker (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae). …”

Analysis of genetic diversity among persimmon cultivars using microsatellite markers by Naval, María M., Zuriaga, Elena, Pecchioli, Simona, Llácer, Gerardo, Giordani, Edgardo, Badenes, María L.

“…Although the species was introduced in Europe very recently, it is well adapted to the climate of southern Europe. However, the recent introduction from Japan, the mistakes on the identity of varieties in the collections due to a bad translation of variety names from Japanese, and the lack of genetic characterization of many varieties have caused difficulties for effective management of the available genetic resources. …”

Zoophytophagous predator-induced defences restrict accumulation of the tomato spotted wilt virus by Bouagga, Sarra, Depalo, Laura, Rubio, Luis, Pérez-Hedo, Mertixell, Urbaneja, Alberto

“…BACKGROUND: The use of zoophytophagous predators in protected crops has been widely adopted to manage pests in southernEurope. We hypothesized that plant defence responses would be induced by zoophytophagous predators and this inductioncould affect plant virus occurrence; the phytophagy of these predators induces plant defences similarly to that of viral infection.Therefore, we evaluated whether or not mirid predator-activated plant defences limited the accumulation ofTomato SpottedWilt Virus(TSWV) in mechanically infected sweet pepper.RESULTS: Our results revealed TSWV accumulation in mirid-punctured plants to be significantly lower than in intact plants. …”

Nordiska växtväggar med fokus på konstruktion och bevattning by Block, John

Mapping of suitable release areas for the parasitoid Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris (Marsh) for the classical biocontrol of Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) using temperature-dependent phen... by Mujica, N., Carhuapoma, Pablo, Kroschel, Jürgen, Kreuze, Jan F.

“…Suitable release areas with a very high probability of establishment and potentially good control efficacy of the parasitoid are tropical and subtropical regions (e.g., countries in Southern Europe; Spain, Portugal). The potential use of the parasitoid in the context of classical biological control of T. absoluta is discussed.…”

Attitudes toward brown bears (Ursus arctos) in Sweden by Lindberg, Dan-Erik

“…When compared to studies from other European countries Swedes are less positive towards bears than people from southern Europe. A large portion of the variation in why people hold their attitudes toward bears remains unexplained, which is most likely due to this survey being designed with previous experiences from wolves in mind and attitudes toward bears are not formed on the same grounds. …”

Predicting bee community responses to land-use changes: Effects of geographic and taxonomic biases by Palma, Adriana de, Abrahamczyk, Stefan, Aizen, Marcelo A., Albrecht, Matthias, Basset, Yves, Bates, Adam, Blake, Robin J., Boutin, Céline, Bugter, Rob, Connop, Stuart, Cruz López, Leopoldo, Cunningham, Saul A., Darvill, Ben, Diekötter, Tim, Dorn, Silvia, Downing, Nicola, Entling, Martin H., Farwig, Nina, Felicioli, Antonio, Fonte, Steven J., Fowler, Robert, Franzén, Markus, Goulson, Dave, Grass, Ingo, Hanley, Mick E., Hendrix, Stephen D., Herrmann, Farina, Herzog, Felix, Holzschuh, Andrea, Jauker, Birgit, Kessler, Michael, Knight, M.E., Kruess, Andreas, Lavelle, Patrick M., Le Féon, Violette, Lentini, Pia, Malone, Louise A., Marshall, Jon, Martínez Pachón, Eliana, McFrederick, Quinn S., Carolina L., Morales, Mudri-Stojnic, Sonja, Nates-Parra, Guiomar, Nilsson, Sven G., Öckinger, Erik, Osgathorpe, Lynne M., Parra-H, Alejandro, Peres, Carlos A., Persson, Anna S., Petanidou, Theodora, Poveda, Katja, Power, Eileen F., Quaranta, Marino, Quintero, Carolina, Rader, Romina, Richards, Miriam H., Roulston, T’ai, Rousseau, Laurent, Sadler, Jonathan P., Samnegård, Ulrika, Schellhorn, Nancy A., Schüepp, Christof, Schweiger, Oliver, Smith-Pardo, Allan H., Steffan-Dewenter, Ingolf, Stout, Jane C., Tonietto, Rebecca K., Tscharntke, Teja, Tylianakis, Jason M., Verboven, Hans A.F., Vergara, Carlos H., Verhulst, Jort, Westphal, Catrin, Joo Yoon, Hyung, Purvis, Andy

“…To assess whether the geographic and taxonomic biases of data could undermine effectiveness of models for conservation policy, we have collated from the published literature a global dataset of bee diversity at sites facing land-use change and intensification, and assess whether bee responses to these pressures vary across 11 regions (Western, Northern, Eastern and Southern Europe; North, Central and South America; Australia and New Zealand; South East Asia; Middle and Southern Africa) and between bumblebees and other bees. …”

Characterization of a papain-like cysteine protease essential for the survival of Babesia ovis merozoites by Carletti, Tamara, Mesplet, Maria, Mira, Anabela, Weir, William, Shiels, Brian, Gonzalez Oliva, Abel, Schnittger, Leonhard, Florin-Christensen, Mónica, Barreto, Carmo

“…Babesia ovis, a tick-transmitted intraerythrocytic protozoan parasite, causes severe infections in small ruminants from Southern Europe, Middle East, and Northern Africa. With the aim of finding potential targets for the development of control methods against this parasite, sequence analysis of its genome led to the identification of four putative cysteine proteases of the C1A family. …”
