Laboratory, simulated‐use, and field evaluation of non‐insecticidal consumer products for indoor pest management: a freeze‐spray aerosol, light traps, and an ‘insect repellent’ lamp

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Control efficacy of three types of non‐insecticidal consumer products were examined in laboratory, simulated‐use, and field conditions. Freeze spray and ‘repellent lamp’ showed limited efficacy, whereas various results in attraction in light trap were reported.

Optimal irradiation parameters for the development of the sterile insect technique in the seedcorn maggot Delia platura (Diptera: Anthomyiidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
X‐ray irradiation of Delia platura pupae showed that 20 Gy induces high sterility while maintaining male quality and competitiveness, establishing optimal parameters for sterile insect technique implementation in North America. Abstract BACKGROUND The seedcorn maggot, Delia platura Meigen (Diptera: Anthomyiidae), is a sporadic but economically ...

Mating history shapes Wolbachia‐induced cytoplasmic incompatibility and female fitness in an insect pest

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Mating order and remating of females by males with different endosymbiont associations strongly shape Wolbachia‐induced cytoplasmic incompatibility, female fitness and offspring sex ratio. An incompatible first mating was weakly affected if followed by a compatible mating and vice versa, indicating strong first‐male sperm precedence with consequences ...

Lack of fitness cost associated to CYP9K1‐mediated insecticide resistance in Anopheles funestus, represents a threat to vector control

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The 454A‐CYP9K1‐mediated resistance confers fitness advantages regarding pupation and longevity in Anopheles funestus, resulting to a slow susceptibility reversion. By contrast, the 119F‐GSTe2 resistance allele rapidly declines. Abstract BACKGROUND Resistance management is critical to maintain insecticide effectiveness in malaria control, and ...

Integrating bioassays and transcriptomics to detect neonicotinoid resistance in Australian Bemisia tabaci MEAM1

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 strain GR15‐1R shows partial resistance to neonicotinoids (bottom), which correlates with an increased expression of the P450 gene CYP6CM1 compared to the insecticide‐susceptible strain SU07‐1 (top). Abstract BACKGROUND Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 is a highly invasive and polyphagous pest species of agricultural and horticultural ...
