The genus Fusarium is noted for including important plant pathogens and mycotoxin
producers. Furthermore, many Fusarium lineages have been reported to be efficient in …

The Fusarium species has diverse ecological functions ranging from saprophytes,
endophytes, and animal and plant pathogens. Occasionally, they are isolated from dead and …

The wheat stem sawfly, Cephus cinctus Norton (Hymenoptera: Cephidae), is historically one
of the most important economic insect pests in the northern Great Plains of North America …

This study investigated the dynamics of parasitism, host plant resistance, pathogens, and
predation on the demography of wheat stem sawfly, Cephus cinctus Norton (Hymenoptera …

A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of soil-dwelling larvae of the
western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte, on infection of maize roots by …

Endophytic fungi are ubiquitous in nature and can play important roles in regulating plant–
herbivore interactions. While some aboveground obligate symbionts are considered …

Accurately estimating cause-specific mortality for immature insect herbivores is usually
difficult. The insects are exposed to abiotic and biotic mortality factors, causing cadavers to …

In two field surveys, high proportions of Galleria mellonella L.(Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)
sentinel larval cadavers were infected by Fusarium solani without evidence of concomitant …

Previous research has suggested that insect herbivores in protected environments have
higher mortalities from biotic factors such as parasitism compared to herbivores in less …

The wheat stem sawfly, Cephus cinctus Norton (Hymenoptera: Cephidae), is a key pest of
wheat in the northern Great Plains of North America. Host plant resistance in the form of …
