Local outbreaks of Operophtera brumata and Operophtera fagata cannot be explained by low vulnerability to pupal predation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
One of the unresolved questions in studies on population dynamics of forest Lepidoptera is why some populations at times reach outbreak densities, whereas others never do.

Complementarity between Orius predators improves control of foliar and flower pests

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Orius predators are commonly used against thrips in many crops. Certain species are suggested to be more effective against flower pests, while others may control effectively foliar pests. Here, we show that Orius species combinations may complement each other and effectively control both flower and foliar pests on gerbera.

The herbicidal natural product phosphonothrixin is an inhibitor of the riboflavin biosynthetic enzyme L‐3,4‐dihydroxy‐2‐butanone‐4‐phosphate synthase

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
An enzyme involved in vitamin B2 biosynthesis, 3,4‐dihydroxy‐2‐butanone‐4‐phosphate synthase (DHBPS), was identified as the target of the natural product phosphonothrixin, representing a novel mode of action for herbicides. Abstract BACKGROUND In our ongoing search for new and environmentally friendly chemical entities that can control weeds via new ...

Molecular detection and characterization of Rickettsia felis, R. asembonensis, and Yersinia pestis from peri-domestic fleas in Uganda

open access: yesInfection Ecology & Epidemiology
Background: Fleas transmit a variety of zoonotic agents whose epidemiology and public health risk remains poorly understood in sub-Saharan Africa, including Uganda particularly outside plague-endemic areas.

FHY3/FAR1 transposable elements generate adaptive genetic variation in the Bassia scoparia genome

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
FHY3/FAR1 are active transposable elements and are involved with the formation of genomic structural variants that cause glyphosate resistance in Bassia scoparia. Abstract BACKGROUND A nearly complete genome assembly consisting of 14 scaffolds, a total length of 969.6 Mb, and an N50 scaffold length of 99.88 Mb, was generated to better understand how ...
