Insect pests in Brassica napus crops: toward ecologically optimized integrated pest management

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Ecologically optimized IPM: Integrating landscape, biological, and chemical strategies for enhanced pest management. Key findings: Optimizing canola IPM requires the deliberate alignment of habitat diversification, behavioral conditioning, and evolutionary processes.

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Ozone‐driven degradation of sex pheromone in Plutella xylostella: Implications for reproductive communication and mating success

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
In this study, we examined whether realistic ozone concentrations can interfere with sexual communication in the insect pest Plutella xylostella, the diamondback moth. Ozone exposure caused a degradation of pheromone components, leading to significant changes in blend composition and component ratios.

The Biology and Ecology of the Diamondback Moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) in Eastern Ontario Revisited

open access: yes, 2018
Diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella Linnaeus (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) is a globally distributed pest on brassicaceous crops. This study aimed to follow up with aspects of earlier research, mainly to revisit the potential for overwintering of ...

Amendment to \"report of the parasitoid wasp, Diadegma anurum (Hym.: Ichneumonidae), from Iran\" [PDF]

open access: yesنامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران, 2013
The previous record of Diadegma anurum (Thomson) as a parasitoid of diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep.: Plutellidae), from Iran has just been a misidentification of Diadegma semiclausum (Hellen).

MAPK-dependent hormonal signaling plasticity contributes to overcoming Bacillus thuringiensis toxin action in an insect host

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is an important bioinsecticide, but high-level resistance has been rapidly evolving in agricultural pests. Here, Guo et al. show that the MAPK cascade can be activated by enhanced upstream insect hormone signals to counter Bt ...

The dual crisis: Climate change simultaneously drives pollinator decline and pest outbreaks

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Climate change acts as an asymmetric ecological filter, favouring r‐selected pest traits (rapid reproduction, generalism) while disadvantaging K‐selected pollinators. For every 1°C of warming, bee species richness declines ~25% since the 1990s, while pest‐induced crop losses increase by 10%–25%. A network‐centric approach integrating climate‐responsive

DIAMONDBACK MOTH OVIPOSITION PREFERENCE ON CABBAGE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The present study about the oviposition preference of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae), can contribute to the determination of the location and time of release of parasitoids and predators or ...

Parasitic wasp‐associated polydnavirus and venom affect arthropod community assembly on wild cabbage via the caterpillar host

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Cotesia glomerata polydnavirus and venom, either alone or in combination, affect colonisation by members of the arthropod community in a natural field setting. Plants damaged by P. brassicae injected with both polydnavirus and venom were colonised more often by Mamestra brassicae caterpillars, Myzus persicae aphids and aphid parasitoids compared to ...

Interactions between Plutella xylostella, Diadegma semiclausum and some generalist predators of brassica crops. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
While much is known about the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Plutellidae) (DBM), the most important pest of brassica crops worldwide, there is little understanding about the dynamics of predatory invertebrates in brassica systems.
