Seedling resistance and chemical defenses against Psylliodes chrysocephala: the roles of seed age and sinapinic acid in Sinapis alba and Brassica napus

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is a major pest of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus). We tested B. napus and Sinapis alba seedlings for feeding resistance and underlying chemical defenses. S. alba was least damaged, while metabolite profiles revealed resistance‐linked compounds, highlighting breeding potential for insect ...

Investigating zeta‐cypermethrin resistance stability in California Drosophila suzukii populations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
After continuous selection and removal of selection pressure in spotted‐wing Drosophila, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance remained stable over several generations. Following a population bottleneck, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance increased without selection, highlighting the importance of insecticide rotation.

Fendioxypyracil, a new and systemic PPO‐inhibiting herbicide for X‐spectrum weed control

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract presents the discovery and synthesis of PPO herbicide structures with a central pyridine core, showing molecular conformations, dose–response inhibition curves for PPO1 and PPO2, and comparative weed and grass control efficacy of fendioxypyracil versus other herbicides in greenhouse and field trials.

Synergistic attraction: Development and field evaluation of a multicomponent lure for Zeugodacus cucurbitae based on host‐plant volatiles and gut bacterium‐derived volatiles

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The newly developed ternary blend was validated in field trials and proved highly effective in attracting both male and female Zeugodacus cucurbitae. Abstract BACKGROUND Zeugodacus cucurbitae is a global quarantine pest. Management of this pest relies heavily on chemical insecticides, which impose substantial environmental burdens. Male‐specific lures [

Assessment of catalase activity, lipid peroxidation, chlorophyll-a, and growth rate in the freshwater green algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata exposed to copper and zinc Evaluación de la actividad de la catalasa, peroxidación lipídica, clorofila-a y tasa de crecimiento en la alga verde de agua dulce Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata expuesta a cobre y zinc

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2011
In this work, the effect of copper and zinc on green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was evaluated through catalase activity, lipid peroxidation by TBARS essay, growth rate, and the chlorophyll-a concentration.

Bacillus thuringiensis and its pest control potential as endophyte

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) systemically colonizes tomato plants as endophyte, inducing midgut damage, fitness reduction and immune suppression in Spodoptera littoralis larvae feeding on Bt‐colonized leaves. The immune suppression enhances the susceptibility to Bt treatments, allowing a synergistic dual use of Bt commercial formulations, by combined ...

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 ...

Long‐term impact of exposure to Royal Guard, a pyriproxyfen‐based bed net, on pyrethroid‐resistant malaria vectors from Cameroon using DNA‐based metabolic resistance markers

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2165-2180, April 2025.
We used recently detected P450 DNA‐based markers of pyrethroid resistance in both Anopheles funestus and Anopheles gambiae to demonstrate that although pyrethroid‐resistant mosquitoes have higher ability to survive and live longer after exposure to Royal Guard, this net significantly affects their lifespan, blood feeding ability and interestingly ...
