Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Vadescana is a novel dsRNA‐based product that targets Varroa fecundity. Vadescana applied at 4 g/brood box in one application was most effective at reducing Varroa populations for up to 18 weeks. Abstract BACKGROUND A novel dsRNA‐based product, containing a molecule called vadescana, interferes with Varroa destructor (Anderson and Trueman) fecundity ...

Pesticide use in integrated pest and pollinator management framework to protect pollinator health
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1691-1696, April 2025.Integrated pest management (IPM) emphasizes non‐chemical methods, with pesticides as a last resort, while integrated pest and pollinator management (IPPM) integrates pollinator health into pest control strategies. Abstract Agricultural pesticides have historically been a critical tool in controlling pests and diseases, preventing widespread suffering ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, April 2025.The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.

Honey bee maternal effects improve worker performance and reproductive ability in offspring
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Maternal effects are an evolutionary strategy used to improve offspring quality. In an example of maternal effects in honey bees (Apis mellifera), mother queens produce larger eggs in queen cells than in worker cells in order to breed better daughter ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sustainable Development interventions must deal with rapid and novel changes affecting complex social‐ecological systems, calling for design based on a resilience approach. However, limited analytical attention has been paid to the design settings in which such approaches are deployed.

Rapid hormonal rise in honey bees due to heat‐shock is mitigated by a primer pheromone
Insect Science, EarlyView.We show that honey bee foragers increased juvenile hormone (JH) titers significantly after heat‐shocked for 1 h at 40 °C, but this increase is dependent on social conditions. Increase of JH titers only happened when bees were isolated (one worker bee per vial) but not in groups.

Potential Correlation Between Bombus lantschouensis Thoracic Morphology and Flight Behavior
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Potential correlation between Bombus lantschouensis thoracic morphology and flight behavior. ABSTRACT Remarkably little modern work has investigated the thoracic structures of insects and their relationship to flight locomotion. Most studies focus exclusively on either morphology or flight kinematics.
