Ants do not prey upon an extrafloral‐nectar‐feeding predatory mite

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
The predatory mite Amblyseius herbicolus is an important natural enemy of various crop pests and occurs in agroforestry coffee systems, where it feeds on the extrafloral nectar of Inga trees. Because extrafloral nectaries are often vigorously defended by ants, we tested whether ants would attack and kill the mites near nectaries.

N‐acetylglucosamine sensing in the filamentous soil fungus Trichoderma reesei

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
N‐acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) is involved in diverse signaling pathways in dimorphic yeasts and bacteria, including virulence and cell death. Here, we investigated GlcNAc sensing in Trichoderma reesei. GlcNAc signaling influences around 2100 genes in this filamentous soil fungus.

What do we know about insect responses to global change? A review of meta‐analyses on global change drivers

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We reviewed 75 meta‐analyses examining the effects of global change stressors on insects. We found that most global change stressors harm insects, with pesticides having the highest proportion of negative effects. Global change more frequently caused harm to higher trophic levels and beneficial insects, whereas herbivores were less often harmed.

Evaluation of Trap Crops and the Presence of the Predator Nabis americoferus for the Management of the Tarnished Plant Bug in Strawberries

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 3, Page 372-383, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The polyphagous tarnished plant bug (TPB), Lygus lineolaris (Palisot de Beauvois) (Hemiptera: Miridae), inflicts substantial damage to strawberries and to several other valuable crops, impacting both yield quantity and quality. Effective control strategies are crucial to mitigate these losses. This study aimed to elucidate TPB host preferences

Agroecological Pest Control Through Mulch in Potatoes—Delayed Population Development of Leptinotarsa decemlineata

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 4, Page 573-582, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Leptinotarsa decemlineata even in organic potatoes, it is often managed using pesticides. Mulching potatoes represents an alternative to reduce egg masses and larvae of L. decemlineata. In three 4‐fold replicated field trials with unmulched control plots (a) in comparison to plots mulched with grass‐clover (b) or triticale‐vetch (c) the ...

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.

Effect of Pest Control Strategies on Arthropod Pests of Apple in Europe: A Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a major fruit crop in Europe. More than 200 phytophagous arthropod species thrive in European apple orchards, several of which are economically important pests. Due to the pest pressure on apple production, consumer demand for residue‐free products and current policies to make food production in the European ...

Impact of Mulches on Floral Visitors in Day‐Neutral Strawberries and Contribution of Syrphid Flies to Strawberry Pollination

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Animal‐mediated pollination is essential for the production of many specialty crops, with insects, primarily bees, serving as the predominant pollinators in many agroecosystems. However, increasing management problems with honey bees and declines in native bee populations due to various environmental stressors have highlighted the importance ...

Bait Sprays Combined With Insecticides Targeted at Drosophila suzukii Have Negligible Impacts on Non‐Target Insects Compared to Full Foliar Spray Applications

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current control of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii relies primarily on insecticides, including the incorporation of phagostimulant baits. The impact of insecticidal bait sprays on beneficial insects in crops is largely unknown. In a laboratory and field trial, we exposed non‐target insects to insecticides with or without bait and compared
