Our review paper on insect-microbe-environment interactions is out! We discussed the context dependent functions of microbes and how microbes can drive multitrophic interactions. doi.org/10.1002/ece3.1…

Thanks to Entomological Society of America Nebraska Entomology for the opportunity to organize the member symposium on "Emerging Trends in Insect-plant Interactions" at the ESA meeting 2024 in Phoenix, Arizona Mark your calendar!! cdmcd.co/bRpyRw #EntSoc24

I can feel it. I did lot of stink bug dissections last week!

Excited to share recently published work from my dissertation comparing foliar and root herbivore-induced plant volatiles!! Lots of intriguing patterns emerged, such as stronger volatile induction aboveground than belowground...Check it out!! Helms Lab - Chemical Ecology doi.org/10.1111/plb.13…

She is out! Yahooo! Happy Dance!

Congratulations Kumar!

Please check out our new article published in New Phytologist on plant-aphids interactions. Modified plant lignin imparts resistance to aphids via modulation of auxins Nebraska Entomology P-IE ESA Entomological Society of America ESA Early Career Professionals Committee insectimmunitypapers

New lab paper by Kelsey Tobin in collaboration with Dr. Brian Lovett's group! We found another species of ambrosia beetle (A. maiche) attacking apple! Check it out here: mapress.com/zt/article/vie…

Interesting read! ESA Early Career Professionals Committee ESA Student Affairs Committee ESA PBT P-IE ESA

You're Invited!✨Ready to clear up the path and figure out how to get the skill to propel yourself as a future entomologist? We, ESA Student Affairs Committee, ESA Early Career Professionals Committee, the DEI, and the Leadership Development Committees, are hosting a mini-workshop in person at #EntSoc24 to do just that!

Excited to be a part of this symposium! See y’all in a week!

if you do chemical ecology and you've ever sat around wondering if you're collecting what you intend to collect for VOCs, you need to read this. I wish this paper was out when I was in graduate school because this always stressed me out!!!!

Congratulations Ana R. Cabrera 🎉

Glad to be a part of this study!

Please share! Proud of the first publication from ROOT & SHOOT Research Coordination Network. Three years work from a huge team of volunteers. We crafted aspirational community agreements, accessibility guides & conference recommendations, tested many and report on our outcomes. elifesciences.org/articles/106877

One day to go! Please register for the webinar if this topic is of your interest!
