Molecular Genetic Basis of Lab- and Field-Selected Bt Resistance in Pink Bollworm

Insects, 2023
Transgenic crops producing insecticidal proteins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) control some important insect pests. However, evolution of resistance by pests reduces the efficacy of Bt crops. Here we review resistance to Bt cotton in the

A Typology of Corporate Actions for a Nature‐Positive Future

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Achieving the global goal of halting and reversing biodiversity loss requires a step up in corporate action and accountability. This includes addressing indirect, diffuse or historical impacts on nature across the value chain—forming a complex landscape of potential actions for businesses as they develop their corporate nature strategy.

Soil health assessment using buried cotton underpants with the help of 1000 citizen scientists

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil is a vital resource for life on Earth. Although many soils are degraded, societal awareness of soil‐related issues is limited. To highlight soil as a key resource and fascinating study system, we initiated a citizen science project together with 1000 participants investigating soil health across Switzerland using buried cotton underpants.

Innovation in pest management: can the past inform the future?

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Progress in pest management occurred incrementally, but occasionally, transformative discoveries introduced disruptive technologies. Looking ahead, generative artificial intelligence is expected to accelerate agricultural discovery by integrating vast datasets from mechanization, genetics, and chemistry.

Improved impact from the use of beneficial natural enemy species in Australian canola systems: challenges and required tools

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
In canola production systems in Australia, practices for the use of beneficials (arthropod predators and parasitoids) as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy, have not been widely adopted. We outline how canola growers and their advisors can be supported with incremental steps, from passive to active management, to help shift them from ...
