Effect of Pest Control Strategies on Arthropod Pests of Apple in Europe: A Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 6, Page 957-987, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a major fruit crop in Europe. More than 200 phytophagous arthropod species thrive in European apple orchards, several of which are economically important pests. Due to the pest pressure on apple production, consumer demand for residue‐free products and current policies to make food production in the European ...

Classification and infection mechanism of entomopathogenic fungi

Arquivos do Instituto Biológico, 2018
: Entomopathogenic fungi are important biological control agents throughout the world, have been the subject of intensive research for more than 100 years, and can occur at epizootic or enzootic levels in their host populations.

The Gene Rearrangement, Loss, Transfer, and Deep Intronic Variation in Mitochondrial Genomes of Conidiobolus

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The genus Conidiobolus s.s. was newly delimited from Conidiobolus s.l. In order to gain insight into its mitochondrial genetic background, this study sequenced six mitochondrial genomes of the genus Conidiobolus s.s.

, 2018
The impacts of entomopathogens (e.g., fungi, bacteria, protists and viruses) on larval Lepidoptera and their associated insect parasitoids have been examined in laboratory studies but field studies of interaction between these two mortality factors are ...

Evidence of Spatial Synchrony in the Spread of an Invasive Forest Pest

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2025.
Although synchrony in population growth rates and abundance is ubiquitous across many taxa, this study demonstrates a new manifestation of this phenomenon, that of spatial synchrony in range expansion. Just as climatic drivers can produce synchrony in population growth or abundance, we show that synchronised fluctuations in seasonal climate conditions,

Plants as biofactories for production of the aphid sex pheromone nepetalactone

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract Aphids cause massive agricultural losses through direct damage or as pathogen vectors. Control often relies on insecticides, which are expensive and not selective. An interesting alternative is to use aphid sex pheromones nepetalactone (NON) and nepetalactol (NOL) to interfere with aphid mating or attract aphid predators.

Disseminated Gastrointestinal Basidiobolomycosis: A Case Report with Review of Diagnostic Clues

Case Reports in Medicine, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Introduction. Basidiobolomycosis is a rare fungal infection caused by an environmental saprophyte, Basidiobolus ranarum. It usually presents as a chronic subcutaneous infection; however, few cases of gastrointestinal involvement have been reported. The exact transmission route of gastrointestinal cases is not clear, and diagnosis always requires a high

Conidiobolus pachyzygosporus invasive pulmonary infection in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia: case report and review of the literature

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Conidiobolus spp. (mainly C. coronatus) are the causal agents of rhino-facial conidiobolomycosis, a limited soft tissue infection, which is essentially observed in immunocompetent individuals from tropical areas.
