    • Climate change expected to improve digestive rate and trigger range expansion in outbreaking locusts 

      Youngblood, Jacob P.; Cease, Arianne J.; Talal, Stav; Medina, Héctor e.; Rojas, Julio E.; Trumper, Eduardo Victor; Angilletta Jr, Michael J.; Harrison, Jon F.; Copa Bazán, Fernando (Wiley, 2022-07-01)
      Global climate change will probably exacerbate crop losses from insect pests, reducing agricultural production, and threatening food security. To predict where crop losses will occur, scientists have mainly used correlative ...

    • Field bands of marching locust juveniles show carbohydrate, not protein, limitation 

      Cease, Arianne J.; Trumper, Eduardo Victor; Medina, Héctor; Copa Bazán, Fernando; Frana, Jorge; Harrison, Jon; Joaquin, Nelson; Learned, Jennifer; Roca, Mónica; Rojas, Julio E.; Talal, Stav; Overson, Rick P. (Elsevier, 2023-09-19)
