Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2300-2311, April 2025.Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Plant immunity in plant–aphid interactions
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Aphids are economically important pests that cause extensive feeding damage and transmit viruses. While some species have a broad host range and cause damage to a variety of crops, others are restricted to only closely related plant species.

, 2014 Belonging to the superfamily Aphidoidea, aphids are Hemiptera insects, many of the species causing economic damage to most cultivated plants. This occurs directly, when they suck the sap and weaken the plants, or indirectly through the transmission of several plant diseases, especially of a viral nature. Aphids cause this plant damage using their biter-

Noise pollution as a major disturbance of avian predation in Amsterdam
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Trophic interactions play a key role in maintaining ecological balance. In urban environments, avian predation has been demonstrated to be particularly important due to its effects on community structure, pest control, and nutrient cycling. As humanity relies upon ecosystem services for sustenance, and with 70% of the global population projected to ...

Quantifying phenotypic plasticity: A call for consistency
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The interest of evolutionary, functional and applied ecologists in the study of phenotypic plasticity has grown considerably in recent decades. From being considered irrelevant in the mid‐20th century, phenotypic plasticity is now considered ubiquitous and essential for

Journal of Animal Ecology, 2014 1. Aphids represent a significant challenge to food production. The Rothamsted Insect Survey (RIS) runs a network of 12·2-m suction-traps throughout the year to collect migrating aphids. In 2014, the RIS celebrated its 50th anniversary.

The role of developmental plasticity in eco‐phenotypic population dynamics
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Individual variation in development can strongly impact population density via its impact on demography. When this variation in development is caused by developmental plasticity, the resulting effects on population density are characterised as ‘eco‐phenotypic dynamics ...
