Laboratory Investigation of Five Inert Dusts of Local Origin as Insecticides against the Colorado Potato Beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata [Say])

Agronomy, 2023
The Colorado potato beetle (CPB) is an economically important pest on potatoes, which can cause significant damage if not controlled. Our laboratory trial was conducted to study the efficacy of five types of inert dusts (diatomaceous earth, quartz sand ...

Content analysis of TikTok videos about tick prevention methods for dogs and cats

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Social media is a major source of pet health information. On platforms such as TikTok, algorithm‐driven recommendations may expose users to health‐related content even without active searching. This study described tick prevention videos on TikTok.

Assessing the Efficacy of Steinernema carpocapsae for Biological Control of Megaselia halterata on Mushroom Farms

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Steinernema carpocapsae applications averaged 40%–60% mortality of mushroom phorid larvae in laboratory experiments. Survival experiments showed that nematode populations drop 50% approximately 5 days post application in mushroom compost. ABSTRACT Mushroom phorid flies (Megaselia halterata; MPF) are a major pest of commercial mushroom production, where

A pellet‐based approach for moss biocrust inoculation: high establishment under laboratory conditions, challenges in the field

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are key components of soil ecosystems and promising tools for ecological restoration. Mosses, as important biocrust constituents, contribute to ecosystem functioning but often fail to establish after inoculation due to harsh environmental constraints.

Soil Silicon Application Alleviates Drought Stress in Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.)

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 5, Page 746-762, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background: The increasing frequency and intensity of drought events have led to yield and quality losses in sugar beet production in temperate regions in Central Europe. Under arid conditions, silicon (Si) application reduced beet yield losses under drought. Similar data for temperate climates are missing.

Abundance of atrazine degrading genes trzN versus atzA in soil cultures and in situ degradation rates

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 10272-10279, October 2026.
Atrazine degradation in agricultural soils showed in situ half‐lives of 36–225 days. Field and laboratory results indicate active microbial hydrolysis driven mainly by trzN. Biphasic degradation sustains long‐term persistence, maintaining the potential for groundwater contamination despite reduced immediate leaching risk.

Synergistic Action of Rhizopus oryzae Lipase and Fusarium oxysporum Cutinase in the Enzymatic Transesterification of a High‐Free Fatty Acid Oil

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 17, 14 September 2026.
A bienzymatic system of Rhizopus oryzae lipase and Fusarium oxysporum cutinase was optimized for the transesterification of high‐free fatty acid waste oil into biodiesel. Synergistic enzyme action, immobilization‐enabled reusability, and successful 100 mL scale‐up highlight the industrial potential of the suggested biocatalytic approach.
