LABORATORY AND FIELD STUDIES ON THE PATHOGENICITY OF SOME ENTOMOPATHOGENIC NEMATODE STRAINS TO BLACK CUTWORM AGROTIS IPSILON (HUFN.). [PDF]
Three entomopathogenic nematode strains, namely FIN, SAR and Hbs1 belonging to Heterorhabditis bacteriophora were selected and tested for pathogencity against newly moulted 6th instar larvae of Agrotis ipsilon (Hufn.).

The Potential for Pest Management Using Plant‐Derived Signaling Compounds
Plant‐derived signaling compounds mediate ecological interactions among plants, herbivores, their natural enemies, and neighboring plants. This graphical summary highlights three approaches to leveraging such ecological interactions for environmentally benign pest management: (1) Recruitment of natural enemies: Using herbivory‐induced plant volatiles ...

Comparing the effects of soil test interpretations for P and K on a creeping bentgrass putting green
Abstract Soil testing provides golf course superintendents with the information needed to apply fertilizers at optimal rates, thereby avoiding nutrient deficiencies and unnecessary applications. However, nutrient rate recommendations vary depending on how soil test results are interpreted.

Abstract Agricultural practices are significant drivers of biodiversity loss, leading to reductions in ecological function and services across regions. To mitigate these effects, habitat restorations within agroecosystems have gained prominence as a strategy to enhance ecological stability and increase biodiversity.

The central complex is a group of midline‐spanning neuropils in the brain of insects with a key role in goal‐directed orientation and navigation. Immunolabeling in 25 species, ranging from bristletails to flies, shows that neurons containing peptides of the tachykinin family of neuropeptides are present in most species studied.
