Control of Fall Armyworm on Sweet Corn, Spring 1996A [PDF]

open access: yesArthropod Management Tests, 1998
Abstract ‘Silver Queen’ corn was seeded in Rockdale soil on 10 Feb 1996. A randomized complete block design was employed to provide 4 replicates each for 4 treatments comprising a plot size of 4 rows, 30 feet long. Insecticide applications were initiated when 2-5% of the plants were infested with FAW.

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

The distribution of covert microbial natural enemies of a globally invasive crop pest, fall armyworm, in Africa: enemy-release and spillover events [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
1. Invasive species pose a significant threat to biodiversity and agriculture worldwide. Natural enemies play an important part in controlling pest populations, yet we understand very little about the presence and prevalence of natural enemies during the

Inheritance and stability of Cry2Ab2 resistance in an Ostrinia nubilalis strain originating from Wisconsin, U.S.

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Resistance to Cry2Ab2 protein in Ostrinia nubilalis is autosomal, functionally recessive, controlled by a single gene, and remains stable over 17 generations in the absence of Cry2Ab2 selection pressure. Abstract BACKGROUND Transgenic corn expressing insecticidal proteins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), including Cry1Ab, Cry1Fa and/or ...

Automatic insect identification, counting, and monitoring techniques: a review

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Automated insect monitoring increasingly integrates optical, acoustic, infrared, radar, electrostatic, and biosensing technologies with artificial intelligence. No single approach is universally optimal; reliable deployment depends on task‐specific validation, representative datasets, robustness under field conditions, energy autonomy, connectivity ...

Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)-Based Defense Induction in Maize against Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda)

open access: yesBiology and Life Sciences Forum, 2023
Agricultural development is one of the most powerful tools to end extreme poverty but agriculture-driven growth, poverty reduction, and food security are at risk.

On‐farm comparison of aerial and chemigation application methods for Striacosta albicosta (lepidoptera: Noctuidae) management in corn using pyrethroid and diamide insecticides

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Aerial applications deposited more insecticide on tassels than on ear level (36.4% vs. 19.8%). Across both application methods, chlorantraniliprole minimized ear injury, while bifenthrin provided moderate control. Effective management of S. albicosta requires delivering sufficient insecticide concentration to the target site and achieving adequate ...

Comparisons of fall armyworm haplotypes between the Galápagos Islands and mainland Ecuador indicate limited migration to and between islands

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The migration of the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) is of topical interest because of its recent introduction and rapid dissemination throughout the Eastern Hemisphere.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Fall armyworm (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) ecology in Southeastern cotton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith), is a sporadic pest with a diverse host range. This insect occasionally causes damage to cotton across the United States from the Rocky Mountains to the East Coast. Fall armyworm has been problematic
