A nanostructured carbon paste sensor modified with 20% multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was developed for the detection of Fipronil. The sensor showed enhanced electrochemical performance, with a limit of detection of 0.377 µmol L‐1. It demonstrated good stability, selectivity, and high recovery in water samples, highlighting the potential of ...

The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is an important pest of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in Europe. The objective of the present study was to gain a better understanding of host plant related factors affecting its oviposition behaviour with the aim of developing new sustainable control strategies.

ABSTRACT Herbivorous soil‐dwelling pests cause damage in agriculture through decreases in root and shoot biomass, which can affect both plant and economic yield. Having a greater understanding of the soil environment of these pests could identify potential avenues for mitigation/control strategies. Leatherjackets (Tipula larvae) are pests of grasslands

Leveraging Biodiversity Net Gain to address invertebrate declines in England
Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) is a new approach to infrastructural development in England, mandating that developers achieve a 10% BNG by enhancing and creating habitats. As currently implemented, BNG risks creating smaller, homogeneous, structurally simple and poorly connected habitats.
