Chemical diversity and phylogenetic insights into Hawaiian ʻākia (Wikstroemia) species used in traditional fishing practices

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional fishing with plant‐based piscicides is a global practice in decline, facing increasing restrictions. We investigated the chemical diversity of endemic Wikstroemia species historically used to stun or poison fish in Hawaiʻi. Using 1‐H‐NMR, principal component analysis, targeted HPLC, and target‐capture sequencing, we characterized compounds ...

Endophytic fungi from two isolated Bethencourtia palmensis populations: metabolomic and bioactivity fingerprinting

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
We compared two island populations of Bethencourtia palmensis and their culturable endophytic fungi, revealing distinct plant chemistries and a higher biopesticidal potential in the endophytic fungi from La Palma population along with high potential for the discovery of novel compounds.

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 ...

Route‐Dependent Toxicity and Ecological Selectivity of Melaleuca alternifolia Essential Oil in Apis mellifera Linnaeus, 1758 (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intensification of agricultural practices has led to an increase in the use of insecticides, raising concerns about the exposure of non‐target organisms, particularly pollinators. In this context, plant‐derived essential oils have been proposed as environmentally friendlier alternatives due to their low persistence; however, their ...
