A preventive strategy for the control of aphids in sweet pepper using lacewings and micrococcinelid beetles

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Aphids pose a serious risk to horticultural crops. Current biocontrol strategies often fail due to the poor establishment of natural enemies when aphids are scarce. We evaluated the potential of two aphidophagous predators, Micromus variegatus and Scymnus interruptus, to be used as preventive biocontrol agents, released before aphid infestation.

Overcoming environmental constraints to high‐yielding eastern cottonwood productivity in the southeastern United States

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
The rising demand for biomass highlights Populus deltoides as a productive woody species. A 6‐year study in Sumter County, SC, assessed the effects of irrigation, fertilization, and clonal variation on growth and productivity. Eight clones were studied under two irrigation levels (33 and 1500 kPa) and nutrient rates (high: up to 182 kg N ha−1; low: 50%
