Economic and Biological Evaluation of Pheromone Trap Types for Western Bean Cutworm, Striacosta albicosta, Monitoring in Dry Edible Bean Fields

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Pheromone trap use for monitoring Striacosta albicosta in dry edible beans was evaluated across multiple trap designs, lure replacement intervals, and insecticide timings. Bucket traps captured the most moths, yet trap counts poorly predicted crop damage.

Fungal, not insect: Revisiting a misidentified Bemisia tabaci protein interacting with a begomovirus coat protein

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
A small heat‐shock protein (HSP16) previously reported as insect‐derived in Bemisia tabaci actually originates from a fungal species of the genus Wallemia. BLAST, genome survey and phylogenetic analyses support the fungal origin and clarify persistent misattribution in the literature.

Plasma Pharmacokinetic Profile of Fipronil 1% Pour‐On in Cattle: Photodegradation and the Sustained Systemic Persistence of Fipronil Sulfone

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study characterized the long‐term pharmacokinetic profile of a 1% fipronil pour‐on formulation in Nellore bulls under field conditions. Seventeen animals received a single topical dose (1 mg/kg), and plasma concentrations of fipronil and its metabolites (sulfone and desulfinyl) were monitored for 175 days using LC–MS/MS.

Extracting vitalities: Cuts in Indigenous women's bodies‐territories (Brazil)

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, I explore the connections between the medicalization of childbirth and environmental devastation through Guarani‐Mbyá understandings of life and the living. I argue that the cuts made to Guarani‐Mbyá women's vaginas (episiotomies) in Brazilian hospitals are experienced and situated on the same cosmopolitical level as the cuts ...
