Two plant‐growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) consortia (AU8 and TX1) induced a deterrence of host plant location and oviposition behavior of Spodoptera exigua females in both susceptible and resistant cotton plants. Most of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased in PGPR‐treated plants compared to untreated plants. # indicates treatments not

Fitness costs associated with Vip3Aa resistance on various hosts in Helicoverpa zea
Significant fitness costs associated with Vip3Aa resistance in H. zea were observed across three non‐Bt hosts. Abundant non‐Bt refuges could help limit the spread of Vip3Aa resistance in H. zea in the field. Abstract BACKGROUND Transgenic crops containing Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) proteins are crucial for managing major agricultural pests such as the

Stability studies of cynaropicrin–major sesquiterpene lactone of Cynara cardunculus leaves
This study investigated its stability under high temperature and pH, mimicking agronomic extremes and under soil context. Bioassays demonstrated that degradation products exhibited higher phytotoxic activity than cynaropicrin and deacylcynaropicrin. This is the first study about cynaropicrin's stability, characterizing degradation products, and their ...
