From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 13, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedTomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) have been bred to exude higher amounts or different types of the specialized plant metabolites, acylsugars, from type IV trichomes. Acylsugars are known to deter several herbivorous...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 9, Issue 9) Peer-ReviewedEndophytic fungi, which live within host plant tissues without causing any visible symptom of infection, are important mutualists that mediate plant-herbivore interactions. Thrips tabaci (Lindeman) is one of the key...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 9, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedThrips-borne tospoviruses cause numerous plant diseases that produce severe economic losses worldwide. In the disease system, thrips not only damage plants through feeding but also transmit causative agents of...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedPollinator syndrome is one of the most important determinants regulating pollen dispersal in tropical tree species. It has been widely accepted that the reproduction of tropical forest species, especially dipterocarps...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedUsing RT-PCR and RACE-PCR strategies, we cloned and identified a new chemosensory protein (FoccCSP) from the Western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, a species for which no chemosensory protein (CSP) has yet...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 7, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedMicrobial pathogens are ancient selective agents that have driven many aspects of multicellular evolution, including genetic, behavioural, chemical and immune defence systems. It appears that fungi specialised to attack...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 11, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAlthough thrips are globally important crop pests and vectors of viral disease, species identifications are difficult because of their small size and inconspicuous morphological differences. Sequence variation in the...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 11, Issue 9) Peer-ReviewedKnowledge of the relative influence of population- versus species-level genetic variation is important to understand patterns of phenotypic variation and ecological relationships that exist among and within...
-
From:Evolution (Vol. 48, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedSexual reproduction may be beneficial for hosts that are attacked by enemies that are highly adapted to them. Sexual reproduction provides a way for progeny to escape predation since a rare genotype could be formed that...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 8, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Most viruses of plants are vectored by arthropods, and most arthropod vectors are insects [1]. Though there is variation in the transmission processes associated with different insect-vectored viral...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 9, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedSaliva is known to play a crucial role in insect feeding behavior and virus transmission. Currently, little is known about the salivary glands and saliva of thrips, despite the fact that Frankliniella occidentalis...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 15, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Shuhei Adachi-Fukunaga 1, Yasuhiro Tomitaka 1, Tamito Sakurai 2,* Introduction Orthotospoviruses are species in the genus Orthotospovirus of the family Tospoviridae , and are transmitted by insect...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 9, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedThe objective of this study was to identify the aggregation pheromone of the melon thrips Thrips palmi, a major pest of vegetable and ornamental plants around the world. The species causes damage both through feeding...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 8, Issue 9) Peer-ReviewedThe main purpose of this study was to reveal if the UV-A, and visible light reflection of leaves of white cabbage varieties is correlated to resistance against onion thrips. The antixenotic resistance (AR) against onion...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 9, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedThrips tabaci is a major pest of high-value vegetable crops and understanding its population genetics will advance our knowledge about its ecology and management. Mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene...

From:Journal of Nucleic AcidsPeer-ReviewedWith an exception of aphids, insects' 28S rRNA is thought to harbor a "hidden break" which cleaves under denaturing conditions to comigrate with 18S rRNA band to exhibit a degraded appearance on native agarose gels. The...
