Using deep learning to assess the toxicological effects of sublethal exposure of a novel green pesticide in a stored‐product beetle

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study employs an AI‐driven multidisciplinary approach to increase our understanding of the toxicological effects of sublethal concentrations of carlina oxide on Prostephanus truncatus. Sublethal exposure to the carlina oxide induced changes in motor patterns and thigmotaxis, highlighting its potential role in integrated pest management strategies.

Anti-predatory behaviour of a land snail Bensonies monticola W.H. Benson, 1838 (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Ariophantidae) against an Aphaenogaster sp. (Arthropoda, Hymenoptera, Formicidae) in the Western Himalaya, India

open access: yesJournal of Fauna Biodiversity
Predator-prey interactions are key drivers of defensive trait evolution in animals, including terrestrial gastropods. These snails have evolved a diverse range of defensive mechanisms which we broadly categorised as behavioural, morphological, and ...

Using expert elicitation to predict feral cat, Felis catus, responses to management

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We generated estimates of lethal feral cat management success for 864 scenarios, only 71 lethal management scenarios met a population reduction target of 57%. Cat‐targeted poison baits, in dry conditions and arid areas were most successful. Feral cat management requires continued adaptive strategies to reduce cat impacts.

Efficacy evaluation of pneumatic solid set canopy delivery system to control powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator) in Washington vineyards

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The findings of this study indicate that powdery mildew control achieved with the pneumatic solid set canopy delivery system (PSD‐SSCDS) was comparable with that of a conventional airblast sprayer. These results highlight the PSD‐SSCDS as a promising alternative spray technology. Abstract BACKGROUND In this study, a previously optimized pneumatic spray
