DOI: 10.1016/j.biocontrol.2017.12.003
Abstract: Abstract The major obstacle to the adoption of Habrobracon hebetor (Say) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) for the management of postharvest moth pests is the short duration of the last instar stage of the hosts, which is the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jip.2019.02.005
Abstract: Wolbachia are common intracellular bacteria that are generally found in arthropods, including a high proportion of insects and also some nematodes. This intracellular symbiont can affect sex ratio with a variety of reproductive anomalies in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0007485319000142
Abstract: Abstract When a promising natural enemy of a key pest exists locally, it is a common practice in biological control (BC) to rear and release it for supplementary control in the targeted agroecosystem even though… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jee/toaa066
Abstract: Abstract Cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera Hubner, is a cosmopolitan polyphagous pest of many crops. Habrobracon hebetor Say and Helicoverpa armigera nucleopolyhedrovirus (HearNPV) are two important biocontrol agents used to manage this pest, sometimes in combination.… read more here.

Identification of Neuropeptides and Their Receptors in the Ectoparasitoid, Habrobracon hebetor
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Frontiers in Physiology"
DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2020.575655
Abstract: Neuropeptides are a group of signal molecules that regulate many physiological and behavioral processes by binding to corresponding receptors, most of which are G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Using bioinformatic methods, we screened genomic and transcriptomic data… read more here.
