Why rotation and mixture fail: treatment history and the declining acaricide efficacy in Varroa destructor

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The effect of IRM strategies (rotation, mixture), one additional year under acaricide treatment (Years treated (+1 year)), and one year without acaricide treatment (Years off treatment (+1 year) on mite mortality relative to an approximately 17% baseline.

Leaf morpho‐anatomical traits as bottom‐up modulators of plant–arthropod interactions: a meta‐analytic synthesis

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Leaf morpho‐anatomical traits act as context‐dependent structural defenses, modulating herbivore preference, feeding, survival, development, and reproduction through complex interactions shaped by plant traits and herbivore functional groups. Abstract BACKGROUND Morpho‐anatomical leaf traits play a central role in the bottom‐up modulation of plant ...

Design of a Novel Gripping Mechanism and Dual Manipulator Robotic System for Apple Harvesting Using Tractor

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The architecture of apple orchards can be converted to easier operation by implementing the use of a low‐cost, tractor‐mounted, dual manipulator based on a robotic harvesting system with lower degrees of freedom (DoF). To accurately avoid injuries by detecting apples, an efferent, real‐time vision system that includes a new gripping mechanism ...
