Field evaluation of whorl application of sand mixed entomopathogenic nematodes for the management of invasive fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in sweet corn

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2023
Background Fall armyworm (FAW) Spodoptera frugiperda, also called ‘whorlworm’ is a global pest threatening maize production. Larvae stay in the whorl of maize/sweet corn and efficient delivery of insecticides or bio-agents is the major issue for its ...

Epidemic Percolation Networks, Epidemic Outcomes, and Interventions

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, 2011
Epidemic percolation networks (EPNs) are directed random networks that can be used to analyze stochastic “Susceptible-Infectious-Removed” (SIR) and “Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Removed” (SEIR) epidemic models, unifying and generalizing previous uses ...

Odors and Genetic Pathways Influencing Resource-Seeking in EPNs and Free-Living Nematodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are insect-killing parasitic worms that are utilized in agriculture and home-garden use against a variety of insect pests. It is the infective juvenile stage (IJ) of the EPN life cycle responsible for locating, infecting

Political Cycles, Electricity Policy, and Mexico's Economy

open access: yesLatin American Policy, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Electricity reform in Mexico should stimulate economic growth, improve energy efficiency, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This article evaluates the successes and failures of reform and draws lessons across political cycles by analyzing changes in political dynamics—often tied to policy reversals—and the legal framework during the pro ...

An investigation of the possiblities of scaling-up and mass-producing entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs)

open access: yes, 2012
The aim of this study was to design a bioreactor system for the cultivation of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs). These are worm-like living invertebrate organisms that can be used as bio-pesticides.

Global Reduction of H3K4me3 Improves Chemotherapeutic Efficacy for Pediatric Ependymomas

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2019
BACKGROUND: Ependymomas (EPNs) are the third most common brain tumor in children. These tumors are resistant to available chemotherapeutic treatments, therefore new effective targeted therapeutics must be identified.

An Elite Haplotype of Nitrogen‐Use‐Efficiency Gene LHT5 Enhances Salt Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3514-3527, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Amino acids serve as fundamental building blocks and signalling molecules in plants, orchestrating stress adaptation mechanisms against diverse biotic and abiotic environmental challenges. However, the mechanism by which plants alter their nutrient metabolism processes to coordinate nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and salt tolerance remains ...

Standardization of Formulation and Application Approaches for Field Implementation of EPNs

open access: yes
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) live parasitically inside the infected insect host, and so they are termed as endoparasitic. They infect different types of insect living in the soil like the larval forms of moths, butterflies and beetles as well ...
