    Automated video tracking of thrips behavior to assess host-plant resistance in multiple parallel two-choice setups

    Piercing-sucking insects cause severe damage in crops. Breeding for host-plant resistance can significantly reduce the yield losses caused by these insects, but host-plant resistance is a complex trait that is...

    High-throughput phenoty** of plant resistance to aphids by automated video tracking

    Piercing-sucking insects are major vectors of plant viruses causing significant yield losses in crops. Functional genomics of plant resistance to these insects would greatly benefit from the availability of hi...

    Behavioural ecology of plant—phytoseiid interactions mediated by herbivore-induced plant volatiles

    Phytoseiid mites use herbivore-induced plant volatiles in long-range prey-habitat location and are arrested by these volatiles in a prey patch. The responses of predatory mites to these volatiles are considere...

    Plant—Phytoseiid Interactions Mediated by Herbivore-Induced Plant Volatiles: Variation in Production of Cues and in Responses of Predatory Mites

    Phytoseiid mites use herbivore-induced plant volatiles in long-range prey-habitat location and are arrested by these volatiles in a prey patch. The responses of predatory mites to these volatiles are considere...
