Insecticides outweigh rye cover crop in triggering secondary pest outbreaks

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 12, Page 7971-7984, December 2025.
Insecticides outweigh rye cover crop in triggering secondary pest outbreaks. Zeus Mateos‐Fierro*, Ashley Leach, Ian Kaplan. Spider mite and melon aphid outbreaks are enhanced with broad‐spectrum insecticides, while natural enemies are reduced. However, rye cover crop has little effect on either pest or natural enemy populations.

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Increases the Concentration of Potassium and KUPs Activity in Phaseolus vulgaris Under Drought Stress and ABA Application

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) symbiotically with the roots of most plants play a prominent role in increasing plant growth and yield. However, the mechanistic understanding of how AMF and the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) jointly regulate potassium (K⁺) uptake and the expression of K⁺ transporter (KUP) genes in common bean under ...
