Insect Biodiversity in Brinjal Agro-Ecosystem

Biological Sciences - PJSIR, 2019
    The experiment on insect biodiversity in brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) agro-ecosystem was conducted at village Mushtaque Kaleri near Tandojam, Hyderabad, Sindh, Pakistan during winter season 2015-2016. For this purpose ½ acre of brinjal crop was cultivated. Collection was done once a week through sweep net method. Data was collected by

Engineered Production of Hydroxycinnamoyl Tyramine Conjugates Limits the Growth of the Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae in Arabidopsis

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroxycinnamoyl tyramine conjugates are phenolamides produced by plants in response to pathogen attack and biotic stresses. Their proposed mechanisms of action include cytotoxicity towards pathogens, cell wall reinforcement to restrict pathogen proliferation, and signaling activity to trigger general stress responses.

Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on agronomic parameters and structural changes in eggplant (Solanum gilo Raddi) roots treated with Purpureocillium lilacinum

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading

Evolving resistance patterns in Tetranychus urticae and Bemisia tabaci in Greece

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3544-3551, April 2026.
Greek populations of T. urticae and B. tabaci exhibit evolving multi‐resistance, confirmed by bioassays and molecular markers, highlighting the urgent need for evidence‐based resistance monitoring in IPM. Abstract BACKGROUND Pesticide resistance in agricultural pests remains a major barrier to effective and sustainable crop protection.

Glucosinolate hydrolysis products suppress entomopathogenic nematodes in vitro but do not protect sequestering flea beetle larvae in vivo

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3603-3612, April 2026.
The flea beetle's glucosinolate‐based chemical defense fails to protect larvae from nematode infection. However, the defense inhibits the nematode's symbiotic bacteria, thereby potentially impairing nematode reproduction and biocontrol success. Abstract BACKGROUND The efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the biological control of insect ...

The Ambiguous Ecologies of Agri‐Alternatives: Exploring the Calculus of Social Reproduction in Rural India

Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 26, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper advances scholarship on agri‐alternatives by probing the gap between romanticised narratives of how alternative farming transitions ought to be and the actual practices farmers enact in their fields. Focusing on moments when such alternatives encounter on‐the‐ground realities, we propose ambiguous ecologies as a lens to explore the ...
