Trapping is not effective for limiting damage by Vespa velutina in vineyards
Vespa velutina is an invasive hornet that damages grapes. Baited traps are commonly used to mitigate them, but trap effectiveness in vineyards has not been tested. Our study found no significant reduction in damage from trapping, and high and variable by‐catch rates. Sustainable vineyard management methods should be explored.

The larval food consumption, growth, and pectinase activity without symbiotic bacteria are suppressed in Zeugodacus cucurbitae. We isolated four strains of Klebsiella spp. that can participate in pectinolytic metabolism from feeding wounds. Reintroducing them to sterile eggs breaks the developmental constraints caused by the lack of symbiotic bacteria.

Number of infested fruits, larval entries and F1 adults decreased as sterile males increased. Control cages had higher fecundity and fertility compared to treatment cages. Release ratios, 40:1 and 60:1 can enhance the efficacy of SIT. Abstract BACKGROUND Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is a significant pest of citrus in ...

Houseflies, clover root weevils, and mangoes were used to demonstrate the comet assay's adaptability. Our findings indicate that the comet assay can reliably detect irradiation‐induced DNA damage in both insects and fruit. However, the assay parameters require careful adjustment to account for differences in insect tissue types and life stages ...
