Evaluating the potential of RNA interference for control of striped cucumber beetle, Acalymma vittatum (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3591-3602, April 2026.
SCB has a robust RNAi response to injected dsRNA, but oral RNAi is less efficient. Nucleases do not appear to be responsible for the discrepancy, suggesting other factors are involved. Abstract BACKGROUND The striped cucumber beetle (SCB) is a serious pest of cucurbit crops, causing damage both by feeding on plants and by vectoring plant diseases ...

Sensitivity to demethylation‐inhibiting fungicides and induced expression of CYP51 associated with tebuconazole resistance in Alternaria species on mandarin in Brazil

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3663-3676, April 2026.
Tebuconazole‐resistant isolates overexpress CYP51 and, when tested at field rates, did not reduce ABS severity, whereas difenoconazole and mefentrifluconazole remained effective. Abstract BACKGROUND Alternaria brown spot (ABS), caused by Alternaria spp., is an important disease affecting mandarin production in several citrus‐growing regions worldwide ...

Selective leaf surface defenses: trichomes trap herbivorous leafminers but spare parasitoid wasps

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 4016-4025, April 2026.
Hooked trichomes on kidney bean leaves selectively entrap leafminer flies but rarely affect parasitoid wasps. This morphological barrier enables pest suppression with minimal impact on beneficial insects, offering insights for breeding pest‐resistant cultivars compatible with biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND Leafminers [e.g., Liriomyza trifolii (

Large Wood Retention in Forested River Corridors During Overbank Flood Events: Insights From Flume Experiments

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Understanding large wood (LW) dynamics on floodplains is important for closing wood budgets and predicting hazards associated with LW. We conducted 38 experiments in a fixed‐bed flume to examine how forest stand density (FSD), wood transport regime, and overbank flood magnitude affect floodplain LW retention.
