An Entomophthora Attacking Citrus Red Mite
The Florida Entomologist, 1951 One of the most serious pests of Citrus in Florida is the citrus red mite, Para,tetranychus citri (McG.), which is commonly known in this state as the purple mite. Although this mite has been known in Florida since before 1885 [Riddle (5)], only during the past two decades has it assumed major importance in all of the citrus areas in this state ...

Protease Production by Species of Entomophthora [PDF]
Applied Microbiology, 1968 Ten insect-pathogenic species of Entomophthora showed wide variation in their ability to produce alkaline protease in surface culture. E. coronata , the most active producer, was selected for studies in submerged culture together with E. virulenta .

High mortality of beetle migrants along the Eastern Mediterranean Flyway
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 896-901, November 2023., 2023 In spring, 2019 millions of insects migrated from the Middle East to Cyprus, across more than 100 km of ocean. Coleopteran migrants were recorded, but the vast majority were found stranded on the beach, suggesting that Coleopterans are weaker migrants than other members of the migratory insect assemblage. This migratory mortality is likely an important

Thirty years of slug control using the parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita and beyond
Pest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 10, Page 3408-3424, October 2023., 2023 The nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita is a parasite of slugs and snails and has been formulated into a biological control agent for use across northern Europe since 1994. Here, we review all research on P. hermaphrodita that has been carried out over the last 30 years and suggest future priorities.

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 25, Issue 1, Page 66-76, February 2023., 2023 SWD showed greater abundance in non‐cropped habitats than cropped areas. This difference was greatest in woodland and field margins that produce host food for SWD. This difference was not affected by neighbouring crop type but was affected by conventional management of the crop and was greatest in the winter period.

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 97, Issue 9, Page 2626-2635, September 2022., 2022 Abstract BACKGROUND Vegetable oil is more difficult for microorganisms to degrade compared with carbohydrates and protein. Oil‐rich waste creates serious environmental and health concerns if it remains untreated. The aim of the work reported here was to evaluate the effects on the nutritional composition of filamentous fungal biomass by growing it in ...
