Studies on the entomopathogenicity and bacterial associates of the nematode Oscheius carolinensis

Torres-Barragan, A., Suazo, A., Buhler, W. G., & Cardoza, Y. J. (2011, June 28). Biological Control, Vol. 59, pp. 123–129.

By: A. Torres-Barragan n, A. Suazo n, W. Buhler n  & Y. Cardoza n

author keywords: Entomopathogen; Symbiosis; Serratia; Providencia; Biocontrol; Insect pest; Nematode; Oscheius
topics (OpenAlex): Entomopathogenic Microorganisms in Pest Control; Insect Pest Control Strategies; Insect Resistance and Genetics
TL;DR: It would appear that O. carolinensis association with its bacteria allows the nematode a dual life: style as an entomopathogen when associated with S. macescens, and to an extent with P. rettgeri, and as a free-living entity whenassociated with all others. (via Semantic Scholar)

2009 journal article

RNA interference-mediated knock-down ofBla g 1in the German cockroach,Blattella germanicaL., implicates this allergen-encoding gene in digestion and nutrient absorption

Insect Molecular Biology, 18(6), 727–736.

By: A. Suazo n, C. Gore & C. Schal n 

Contributors: A. Suazo n, C. Gore & C. Schal n 

author keywords: Blattella germanica; RNA interference; midgut protein; Bla g 1; allergen
MeSH headings : Allergens / genetics; Allergens / metabolism; Allergens / physiology; Animals; Antigens, Plant; Cockroaches / genetics; Cockroaches / growth & development; DNA Primers / genetics; Digestion / genetics; Digestion / physiology; Female; Intestinal Absorption / genetics; Juvenile Hormones / pharmacology; Oocytes / metabolism; RNA Interference; Reproduction / drug effects; Reproduction / genetics; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction
topics (OpenAlex): Insects and Parasite Interactions; Allergic Rhinitis and Sensitization; Insect and Arachnid Ecology and Behavior
TL;DR: Exogenous juvenile hormone treatments rescued reproduction in RNAi‐treated females, suggesting that Bla g 1 silencing lowered endogenous juvenile hormone, probably by reducing food intake and nutrient absorption. (via Semantic Scholar)

2009 article

Survey and phylogenetic analysis of culturable microbes in the oral secretions of three bark beetle species

Cardoza, Y. J., Vasanthakumar, A., Suazo, A., & Raffa, K. F. (2009, March 30). Entomologia Experimentalis Et Applicata.

By: Y. Cardoza n, A. Vasanthakumar*, A. Suazo n & K. Raffa *

author keywords: fungi; bacteria; symbiosis; microbial diversity; Dendroctonus rufipennis; Dendroctonus ponderosae; Ips pini; Coleoptera; Curculionidae; Scolytinae; 16S rRNA sequence
topics (OpenAlex): Forest Insect Ecology and Management; Insect and Pesticide Research; Insect symbiosis and bacterial influences
TL;DR: Actinobacteria, a group known for their antibiotic properties, were the most effective against fungi that invade the spruce beetle galleries, and fungal isolates obtained from the three beetle species were Ascomycetes. (via Semantic Scholar)

Reproductive Biology and Development of Lixadmontia franki (Diptera: Tachinidae), a Parasitoid of Bromeliad-eating Weevils

Suazo, A., Cave, R. D., & Frank, J. H. (2008, September 1). Florida Entomologist.

By: A. Suazo n, R. Cave * & J. Frank*

author keywords: parasitism; biological control; weevil
topics (OpenAlex): Insect behavior and control techniques; Forest Insect Ecology and Management; Entomological Studies and Ecology
TL;DR: Females are capable of parasitizing third to sixth instars of Metamasius quadrilineatus Chevrolat, but the highest levels of parasitism were observed when third and fourth instars were exposed to flies. (via Semantic Scholar)
