Horizontal Transfer of Diatomaceous Earth and Botanical Insecticides in the Common Bed Bug, Cimex lectularius L.; Hemiptera: Cimicidae Publish Date: 2013-09-25 Author/Source: Yasmin Akhtar, Murray B. Isman Description: Horizontal transfer of insecticide occurs when insects contact or ingest an insecticide, return to an aggregation or a nest, and transfer the insecticide to other conspecific insects through contact. This phenomenon has been reported in a number of insects including social insects, however it has not been reported in bed bugs. Since horizontal transfer can facilitate the spread of insecticide into hard to reach spaces, it could contribute greatly to the management of these public health pests. State/Region: National |

Extended disease resistance emerging from the faecal nest of a subterranean termite Publish Date: 2013-09-18 Author/Source: Thomas Chouvenc, Caroline A. Efstathion, Monica L. Elliott, Nan-Yao Su Description: Social insects nesting in soil environments are in constant contact with ento- mopathogens but have evolved a range of defence mechanisms, resulting in both individual and social immunity that reduce the chance for epizootics in the colony, as in the case of subterranean termites.

Dissemination of Metarhizium anisopliae infection among the population of Odontotermes obesus (Isoptera: Termitidae) by augmenting the fungal conidia with attractants Publish Date: 2013-09 Author/Source: M. Balachandera, O.K. Remadevia, T.O. Sasidharan Description: From this study it was observed that the mixing of conidia with attractants could augment the dissemination potential of fungal infection among the termites. By adapting attractant based Metarhizium baits and dusting of conidial attractant mixture inside mounds may augment the dissemination potential in epizootic transmission of fungal infection.

Biting Deterrence, Repellency, and Larvicidal Activity of Ruta chalepensis (Sapindales: Rutaceae) Essential Oil and Its Major Individual Constituents Against Mosquitoes Publish Date: 2013-08-16 Author/Source: Abbas Ali, Betul Demirci, Hulya Tuba Kiyan, Ulrich R. Bernier, Maia Tsikolia, David E. Wedge, Ikhlas A. Khan, Kemal Husnu Can Ba?er, Nurhayat Tabanca Description: This study revealed that R. chalepensis essential oil and its major compounds were active biting deterrents against Ae. aegypti at higher application rates whereas only the essential oil showed activity similar to DEET against An. quadrimaculatus. 2-undecanone was the most active compound in in vivo repellency bioassay against Ae. aegypti.

volutionary history of rat-borne Bartonella: the importance of commensal rats in dissemination of bacterial infections globally Publish Date: 2013-08-13 Author/Source: Hayman DT, McDonald KD, Kosoy MY. Description: We analyzed gene sequences of 191 strains of rat-associated bartonellae from 29 rodent species from 17 countries to test the hypotheses that this bacterial complex evolved and diversified in Southeast Asia before being disseminated by commensal rats Rattus rattus (black rat) and Rattus norvegicus (Norway rat) to other parts of the globe.

Crop Pollination Exposes Honey Bees to Pesticides Which Alters Their Susceptibility to the Gut Pathogen Nosema ceranae Publish Date: 2013-07-24 Author/Source: Jeffery S. Pettis, Elinor M. Lichtenberg, Michael Andree, Jennie Stitzinger, Robyn Rose, Dennis vanEngelsdorp Description: We collected pollen from bee hives in seven major crops to determine 1) what types of pesticides bees are exposed to when rented for pollination of various crops and 2) how field-relevant pesticide blends affect bees’ susceptibility to the gut parasite Nosema ceranae. Our samples represent pollen collected by foragers for use by the colony, and do not necessarily indicate foragers’ roles as pollinators. In blueberry, cranberry, cucumber, pumpkin and watermelon bees collected pollen almost exclusively from weeds and wildflowers during our sampling State/Region: National
