Decoding attraction: Improving vine weevil monitoring by exploiting key sensory cues

Pest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 11, Page 4635-4643, November 2023., 2023
Vine weevil adults preferred black, tall and large‐diameter monitoring tools. Monitoring tool density influenced the number of vine weevils recorded in monitoring tools. By contrast plant density did not influence the number of weevils recorded in monitoring tools.

Identification of the key morphological sweetpotato weevil resistance predictors in Ugandan sweetpotato genotypes using correlation and path‐coefficient analysis

Crop Science, Volume 63, Issue 3, Page 1126-1138, May/June 2023., 2023
Abstract Sweetpotato weevils (SPWs) can cause up to 100% yield losses in sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas). Nevertheless, there has been limited success in breeding for SPW resistance globally. This is attributed partly to difficulty in screening for resistance because resistance to the SPW is complex and is mediated by several resistance indicators ...

Resporulation of Metarhizium anisopliae granules on soil and mortality of Tenebrio molitor: Implications for wireworm management in sweetpotato

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 182, Issue 1, Page 65-76, January 2023., 2023
Fungal granules inoculated on sterilised soil caused upto 76% mealworm mortality. Abstract In Australia, sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is vulnerable to root feeding insect pests such as wireworms (e.g., Agrypnus spp.). The number of registered insecticides to control these insect pests is limited and often pest pressure, for example by wireworms, is

Effects of domestication on quality control parameters of the Queensland fruit fly Bactrocera tryoni (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 146, Issue 6, Page 687-699, July 2022., 2022
Abstract The Queensland fruit fly (Q‐fly), Bactrocera tryoni (Froggatt), is a major horticultural pest in Australia. Sterile insect technique (SIT) is increasingly used in area‐wide integrated management of Q‐fly, as well as for eradication of outbreaks in Q‐fly‐free regions.

Odorant receptor orthologues in conifer‐feeding beetles display conserved responses to ecologically relevant odours

Molecular Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 13, Page 3693-3707, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Insects are able to detect a plethora of olfactory cues using a divergent family of odorant receptors (ORs). Despite the divergent nature of this family, related species frequently express several evolutionarily conserved OR orthologues. In the largest order of insects, Coleoptera, it remains unknown whether OR orthologues have conserved or ...

Characterization, identification and virulence of Metarhizium species from Cuba to control the sweet potato weevil, Cylas formicarius Fabricius (Coleoptera: Brentidae)

Journal of Applied Microbiology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 3705-3716, May 2022., 2022
Abstract Aims Entomopathogenic Metarhizium fungi are widely recognized for their biological control potential. In Cuba, several fungus‐based bio‐insecticides have been developed and are produced as part of integrated pest management (IPM) programmes for economically relevant agricultural pests.

Biology, Taxonomy, and Management of the Root‐Knot Nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) in Sweet Potato

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Sweet potato is the seventh‐ranked food crop produced after wheat, rice, maize, potato, barley, and cassava in the world. It is the most important root tuber crop in temperate, subtropical, and tropical areas of the world. It is grown for food, income‐generating, and jobs for farmers and retailers. The important nutritional substances of sweet potatoes
