Efficacy of Select Gene Targets for the Management of Western Flower Thrips Through RNA Interference

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 122, Issue 3, July 2026.
Western flower thrips (WFT) cause extensive damage to crops. RNA interference (RNAi) is being extensively researched for the management of this pest. We successfully demonstrated the uptake of dsRNA by WFT through artificial diet feeding and identified Promising new targets for the development of RNAi‐based pesticides have been identified.

Henbit is an attainable cover crop

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Henbit is a short‐season plant that grows through the winter. It seeds itself in the spring with seeds that stay dormant through the summer and germinate in the fall. Winter growth makes henbit a good cover crop for the offseason of summer cash crops. Abstract Henbit (Lamium amplexicaule L.) is a potential cover crop in the Central United States, but ...

Innate immunity shapes the persistent transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
In this review, we focus on two key aspects of the virus–vector interplay: (1) persistently transmitted viruses utilize host factors to overcome transmission barriers; and (2) molecular recognition activates antiviral immunity and subsequent viral counter‐defense. Understanding these interactions offers critical insights for developing novel strategies
