Leaf morpho‐anatomical traits as bottom‐up modulators of plant–arthropod interactions: a meta‐analytic synthesis

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Leaf morpho‐anatomical traits act as context‐dependent structural defenses, modulating herbivore preference, feeding, survival, development, and reproduction through complex interactions shaped by plant traits and herbivore functional groups. Abstract BACKGROUND Morpho‐anatomical leaf traits play a central role in the bottom‐up modulation of plant ...

Steaming soil is effective in eliminating invasive alien plants (IAPs) – part I: effect of exposure method

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2032-2039, April 2025.
As regulations on chemical pesticides become more stringent, it is likely that there will be interest in water steam as an alternative approach for soil disinfestation. This study investigated the feasibility of utilizing a soil steaming device for thermal control of selected invasive alien plants and showed a promising mortality rate for their ...

Specimen preparation for X-ray micro-computed tomography of forest pests

Applied Microscopy
X-ray micro-computed tomography (XCT) is an X-ray-based three-dimensional (3D) imaging technique that enables non-destructive imaging of both external and internal structures. It is widely used for studying biological specimens such as animals and plants.

The European honey buzzard (Pernis apivorus) as an ally for the control of the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax)

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, April 2025.
The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.
