Plant Resistance to the Fall Armyworm

The Florida Entomologist, 1979
A review of the history and state of the art of plant resistance to the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith), is presented. Sources of resistance to the fall armyworm have been found in corn (`Antigua 2D', `MP496'), millet (`Inbred 240'), Bermudagrass (`Coastal Bermudagrass'), and peanuts (`Southeastern Runner 56-15').

Nonsensical choices? Fall armyworm moths choose seemingly best or worst hosts for their larvae, but neonate larvae make their own choices. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Selecting optimal host plants is critical for herbivorous insects, such as fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda), an important maize pest in the Americas and Africa.

Complex multiple introductions drive fall armyworm invasions into Asia and Australia

bioRxiv, 2022
The fall armyworm (FAW) Spodoptera frugiperda is thought to have undergone a rapid ‘west-to-east’ spread since 2016 when it was first identified in western Africa.

Forecasting the global extent of invasion of the cereal pest Spodoptera frugiperda, the fall armyworm

NeoBiota, 2018
Fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, is a crop pest native to the Americas, which has invaded and spread throughout sub-Saharan Africa within two years. Recent estimates of 20–50% maize yield loss in Africa suggest severe impact on livelihoods.

The genetic characterization of fall armyworm populations in Ecuador and its implications to migration and pest management in the northern regions of South America.

PLoS ONE, 2020
The fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) is a moth pest native to the Western Hemisphere that has recently become a global problem, invading Africa, Asia, and Australia.

Prospecting of popcorn hybrids for resistance to fall armyworm [PDF]

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2014
The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, is the pest that causes the greatest economic losses for both common corn and popcorn crops, and the use of resistant plant genotypes is an important tool for integrated pest management. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the damage caused by S.

Atmospheric Dynamics Analysis and Simulation of the Migration of Fall Armyworm

应用气象学报, 2022
After the invasion of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) in China at the end of 2018 or at the beginning of 2019, it spreads rapidly and becomes a seasonal migrating pest that seriously threatens the maize production in China.

Sublethal Effects of Emamectin Benzoate on Fall Armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Agriculture, 2022
Fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a highly invasive polyphagous pest that causes great economic losses to agricultural production. Emamectin benzoate (EMB) is one of the most popular biopesticides with high antipest,

Bioactive Volatiles From Push-Pull Companion Crops Repel Fall Armyworm and Attract Its Parasitoids

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, is a serious invasive pest in Africa but “Push-Pull” companion cropping can substantially reduce infestation. Here, we elucidate the underpinning chemical ecology mechanisms.
