2012 journal article

Novel adult feeding disruption test (FDT) to detect insecticide resistance of lepidopteran pests in cotton

PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE, 69(5), 652–660.

By: B. Kretschmar n, A. Cabrera n, J. Bradley n & R. Roe n 

author keywords: resistance; bioassay; feeding disruption; Lepidoptera; moth; permethrin
MeSH headings : Animals; Coloring Agents / analysis; Feces / chemistry; Female; Food Deprivation; Gossypium; Herbivory; Insecticide Resistance; Insecticides; Male; Moths; Permethrin; Plant Nectar; Sucrose; Trypan Blue / analysis
TL;DR: Proof of concept was demonstrated for an adult FDT in which resistant moths were distinguished from susceptible moths on the basis of the ability of the insect to feed on insecticide in dyed nectar and produce dyed feces. (via Semantic Scholar)

2011 journal article

Resistance monitoring of Heliothis virescens to pyramided cotton varieties with a hydrateable, artificial cotton leaf bioassay

CROP PROTECTION, 30(9), 1196–1201.

By: A. Cabrera n, J. Van Kretschmar n, J. Bacheler n, H. Burrack n , C. Sorenson n & R. Roe n 

author keywords: Bt; Tobacco budworm; Heliothis virescens; Cotton; Bollgard II; WideStrike; Resistance
TL;DR: Proof of concept was demonstrated for a practical, off-the-shelf bioassay to monitor for tobacco budworm resistance to pyramided Bt cotton using plant filtrates and showed it could be stored for at least 6 months at room temperature. (via Semantic Scholar)

2010 journal article

New approach for the study of mite reproduction: The first transcriptome analysis of a mite, Phytoseiulus persimilis (Acari: Phytoseiidae)

Journal of Insect Physiology, 57(1), 52–61.

By: A. Cabrera n, K. Donohue n, S. Khalil  n, E. Scholl n, C. Opperman n, D. Sonenshine *, R. Roe n 

author keywords: Mite; Acari; Phytoseiidae; Transcriptome; 454; Vitellogenin; Vitellin; Yolk protein; Vitellogenin receptor; Yolk protein receptor; Tick; Female reproduction
MeSH headings : Animals; Female; Gene Expression Profiling / methods; Gene Expression Regulation; Male; Mites / classification; Mites / genetics; Mites / growth & development; Mites / physiology; Molecular Sequence Data; Phylogeny; Proteins / genetics; Proteins / metabolism
TL;DR: The objective of this project was to obtain DNA-sequence information of expressed genes from P. persimilis with special interest in sequences corresponding to vitellogenin (Vg) and the viteLLogenin receptor (VGR) which are critical to the understanding ofvitellogenesis.

2009 review

Regulation of female reproduction in mites: A unifying model for the Acari

[Review of ]. JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY, 55(12), 1079–1090.

By: A. Cabrera n, K. Donohue n & R. Roe n 

author keywords: Mites; Ticks; Acari; Vitellogenesis; Vitellogenin; Vitellin; Regulation; Juvenile hormone; Ecdysteroids
MeSH headings : Acari / physiology; Animals; Ecdysteroids / metabolism; Female; Juvenile Hormones / metabolism; Mites / physiology; Reproduction; Vitellogenesis; Vitellogenins / metabolism
TL;DR: A new working hypothesis is proposed, i.e., that ecdysteroids and not the JHs regulate vitellogenesis in the Acari including both ticks and mites. (via Semantic Scholar)
