The small white butterfly Pieris rapae is one of the most destructive pests of Brassicaceae. Yet little is understood about its genes involved in development. To facilitate research on P. rapae, we sequenced the transcriptome of P. rapae during six developmental stages, including the egg, three larval stages, the pupa, and the adult. In total, 240 million high-quality reads were obtained. De no...

J. Ecan. Entomal. 76: ]39-]43 (]983) A variable-intensity sampling method was developed to efficiently monitor all cabbage pests in commercial fields in New York while concentrating on the most important pests, Pieris rapae (L.) and Trichoplusia ni (Hiibner). The field is walked in a V-shaped pattern which is divided into 10 segments. Along each segment, one to four randomly selected cabbage pl...

small cabbage white butterfly, pieris rapae (l.) (l.) (lep.: pieridae) and diamondback moth, plutella xylostella (l.) (lep. plutellidae) are two of the most important insect pests of the family brassicaceae. use of resistant varieties is suitable management strategy for control of these pests. in order to study the population fluctuations of p. rapae and p. xylostella, eight cultivars of caulif...

In this paper there were presented data about the invertebrates from Bihor County, during 2021 – 2022. There recorded 82 species belonging to 5 classes, 13 orders and 76 genera. obtained ecological of these species, unknown in scientific literature. The premature appearance Pieris rapae L was observed a month earlier then period mentioned Many various stages development have been be active cold...

The butterfly Pieirs rapae drinks liquid using a long proboscis. A high pressure gradient is induced in the proboscis when cibarial pump muscles contract. However, liquid feeding through the long proboscis poses a disadvantage of high flow resistance. Hence, butterflies may possess special features to compensate for this disadvantage and succeed in foraging. The main objective of this study is ...
