Improving Decision‐Making in the Identification of Tephritidae Larvae at Import in the European Union and Key to Third Instar Larvae

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Tephritidae family, or true fruit flies, comprises approximately 250 species recognized as economically significant due to their capacity to infest commercial fruits. These pests pose serious threats to both food security and trade, and are considered quarantine pests in areas where they are not yet established. In the European Union (EU),

Investigating the cost of adaptation in Amaranthus tuberculatus populations with evolved resistance to glyphosate [PDF]

Amaranthus tuberculatus (Common Waterhemp) is a prevalent, problematic weed in Midwestern USA, where genetically-modified crops are widely grown, resulting in multiple annual applications of glyphosate.

First Record of Larval Parasitism in Disonycha glabrata (F.) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) by Myiopharus ancilla (Walker) (Diptera: Tachinidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The amaranth flea beetle, Disonycha glabrata (F.), is a major pest of amaranth crops (Amaranthus spp.) in the United States. Despite its economic impact, its natural enemy complex remains poorly documented. In this study, we report the first record of larval parasitism in D. glabrata by the tachinid fly Myiopharus ancilla (Walker).

Diets, Fruit and Vegetable Intake and Nutritional Status in Tanzania: Scoping Review

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
This scoping review summarizes evidence on diets, fruit and vegetable (F&V) intake, and nutritional status in Tanzania to identify information gaps and to help with the design and targeting of potential interventions to improve F&V intake. While the majority of existing literature on diets and F&V intake was heterogeneous, evidence suggests that among ...

Harnessing benzamides as plant stress inhibitors, growth promoters and in management of crop resilience—A review

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Benzamides boost crop resilience by inhibiting poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) to enhance stress tolerance and, through their antimicrobial, herbicidal, and insecticidal derivatives, they offer broad protection for sustainable crop improvement. Abstract Benzamides have emerged as potent stress inhibitors and growth promoters in plant biotechnology ...
