Perception of cat owners on the use of insects as feed ingredients for cats
(Koninklijke Brill NV, 2023)
Currently, insects represent a sustainable alternative to animal-based ingredients for pet food, but there is little
information on the willingness of cat owners to incorporate insects into their pet diets. The objective ...
Protease inhibitory, insecticidal and deterrent effects of the trypsin- inhibitor benzamidine on the velvetbean caterpillar in soybean
(Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019)
Variation in Nectar and Pollen Availability, Sucrose Preference, and Daily Response in the Use of Flowers by Heliconius erato phyllis
(Springer/plenum PublishersNew YorkEUA, 2011)
Evaluation of induced responses, insect population growth, and host-plant fitness may change the outcome of tests of the preference-performance hypothesis: A case study
(2003)
The preference-performance hypothesis predicts that insect preference should correspond to host suitability for offspring development. We studied the pattern of within-plant preference in the aphid Sipha flava and its ...
The role of leaf cellulose content in determining host plantpreferences of three defoliating insects present in theAndean-Patagonian forest
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-06-13)
Phytophagous insects choose their feeding resources according to their own requirements in addition to properties of the host plants, such as biomechanical defences. The feeding preferences of the native folivorous insects ...
Field preferences of the Social Wasp Vespula germanica (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) for Protein-rich Baits
(Springer, 2013-03)
Food preferences displayed by foraging insects are important from a fundamental perspective and in pest control. We studied the preference of an invasive wasp, V. germanica, for protein foods in field conditions. Preferences ...
Oviposition preference and larval performance in a Heliconius erato phyllis (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) population from southeastern Brazil: is there a positive relationship?
(Taylor & Francis LtdAbingdonInglaterra, 2012)
Antixenosis to Chrysodeixis includens (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) among soybean genotypes
(Inst Agronomico, 2018-01-01)
The soybean looper Chrysodeixis includens is one of the main defoliating pests of soybean cultures in Brazil. This work aimed to evaluate the effect of offering different soybean genotypes to this insect to verify the ...
Size does matter: variation in herbivory between and within plants and the plant vigor hypothesis
(Wiley-blackwellMaldenEUA, 2008)
Influence of fall armyworm previous experience with soybean genotypes on larval feeding behavior
(Springer, 2017-02-01)
Previous experience on host plants can modify insect feeding behavior. Because insect habituation and induction of preference to host plants are variable across species of plants and insects, it is necessary to investigate ...
