Integrated Pest Management in Pigeonpea: Progress and Prospects

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 4, Page 661-681, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Pigeonpea is one of the world's most important grain legume crops. Mostly grown and consumed in India, where it is a staple food, pigeonpea production also occurs elsewhere in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Australia. Despite widespread cultivation and staple food status, pigeonpea yields have barely increased over the last half century.

Overexpression of the Sorghum CCoAOMT Gene Confers Enhanced Resistance to Sugarcane Aphids

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) plays a critical role in global agriculture, serving as a staple food source and contributing significantly to various industries. However, sorghum cultivation faces significant challenges, particularly from pests like the sugarcane aphid (SCA), which can cause substantial damage to crops.

Legume‐Colonising Aphids as Potential PNYDV‐Vectors: Reproduction and Infestation Dynamics in Two Different Field Bean Varieties

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 3, Page 442-451, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Faba bean can be infected by Pea necrotic yellow dwarf virus (PNYDV), a novel pathogen throughout Europe, and transmitted persistently by several legume‐colonising aphid species. Recent field screenings in Austria and Germany of different faba bean varieties were encouraging as consistently the lowest viral symptom development in the variety ...

ANTIBIOSIS AND ANTIXENOSIS IN TOMATO GENOTYPES AGAINST Helicoverpa armigera HUBNER

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems
<p><strong>Background</strong>. Farmers rely on the use of synthetic insecticides in managing <em>Helicoverpa</em> <em>armigera</em>, hole-boring insect pest on tomato, but they are detrimental to human health. Therefore a more reliable and ecofriendly control measure is needed such as host plant resistance< ...

The Turnip Yellows Virus Capsid Protein Promotes Access of Its Main Aphid Vector Myzus persicae to Phloem Tissues

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 2434-2444, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Many plant viruses modify the phenotype of their hosts, which may influence the behaviour of their vectors and facilitate transmission. Among them is the turnip yellows virus (TuYV), which can modify the orientation, feeding, and performance of its main aphid vector, Myzus persicae.
