JOURNAL OF ENTOMOLOGICAL SCIENCE, 52(1), 15–28.
author keywords: Platygastridae; overwintering; biocontrol
TL;DR:

The Influence of Habitat Manipulations on Beneficial Ground-Dwelling Arthropods in a Southeast US Organic Cropping System
ENVIRONMENTAL ENTOMOLOGY, 44(1), 114–121.
author keywords: habitat manipulation; Amara cupreolata; Megacephala carolina; Araneae; Collembola
MeSH headings : Agriculture / methods; Animals; Arthropods; Biodiversity; Crops, Agricultural; Ecosystem; North Carolina; Population Density
TL;DR:
The results suggest that the activity—density of these organisms were instead determined by a combination of in-field characteristics, such as crop type, weed management practices, and within-field resources, along with the diversity of crop type in neighboring fields and the availability of other resources in the area.

MeSH headings : Alkaloids / analysis; Alkaloids / chemistry; Alkaloids / toxicity; Animals; Ants / drug effects; Anura / physiology; Motor Activity / drug effects; Skin / chemistry
TL;DR:
The results and those of a previous study of mosquitoes indicate that some anuran skin compounds function defensively as contact toxins against arthropods, permeating their exoskeleton.

Soil organic amendment impacts on corn resistance to Helicoverpa zea: Constitutive or induced?
PEDOBIOLOGIA, 55(6), 343–347.
author keywords: Corn; Corn earworm; Vermicompost; Induced-resistance; Feeding preference; Oviposition
TL;DR:
Investigation of the effects of two vermicompost sources Oregon and Raleigh and previous feeding by H. zea larvae on the response and preference of immature and adult stages of the insect to corn plants found that previous conspecific induction appears to have a phagostimulatory effect on larval verMicompost leaf tissue consumption.

Bottom-up effects mediated by an organic soil amendment on the cabbage aphid pests Myzus persicae and Brevicoryne brassicae
ENTOMOLOGIA EXPERIMENTALIS ET APPLICATA, 139(2), 111–119.
author keywords: vermicompost; plant resistance; antibiosis; Hemiptera; Aphididae; Brassica oleracea; specialist; generalist; cabbage aphid; green peach aphid
TL;DR:
It is shown that vermicompost soil amendments can significantly influence pest aphid preference and performance on plants and that these effects are not dose dependent, but rather species and morph dependent.

Studies on the entomopathogenicity and bacterial associates of the nematode Oscheius carolinensis
BIOLOGICAL CONTROL, 59(2), 123–129.
author keywords: Entomopathogen; Symbiosis; Serratia; Providencia; Biocontrol; Insect pest; Nematode; Oscheius
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.

Arabidopsis thaliana resistance to insects, mediated by an earthworm-produced organic soil amendment
PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE, 67(2), 233–238.
author keywords: pest resistance; antixenosis; antibiosis; plant-insect interactions; organic; soil factors
MeSH headings : Animals; Arabidopsis / immunology; Arabidopsis / parasitology; Arthropods / growth & development; Arthropods / physiology; Immunity, Innate; Oligochaeta / metabolism; Pest Control, Biological; Plant Diseases / immunology; Plant Diseases / parasitology; Rhizosphere; Soil / analysis; Soil / parasitology
TL;DR:
Virmicompost causes plants to have non-preference (antixenosis) and toxic effect (antibiosis) effects on insects, and resistance is likely that resistance is due to interactions between the microbial communities in verMicompost with plant roots, as is evident from vermicompast sterilization assays conducted in this study.

Effects of symbiotic bacteria and tree chemistry on the growth and reproduction of bark beetle fungal symbionts
CANADIAN JOURNAL OF FOREST RESEARCH, 39(6), 1133–1147.
TL;DR:
Some bacteria associated with bark beetles directly affects fungal sym- bionts and interact with tree chemistry to affect fungal growth and sporulation, and the strongest effects were induced by bacte- ria associated with beetles adapted to attacking living trees with vigorous defenses, and on fungal reproductive structures.
