Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier
Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8053-8063, September 2026.Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.

Shifting body weight-fecundity relationship in a capital breeder : maternal effects on egg numbers of the autumnal moth under field conditions [PDF]
, 2013 In the literature, various environmental factors are described as being capable of influencing the reproductive output of insect females irrespective of their body size. Still, female body size or weight is widely used as a proxy for fecundity.

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.ABSTRACT The Chalcididae comprises parasitoid wasps that attack various invertebrate groups. Within the family, some Brachymeria species specialises in infecting pupae of Lepidoptera. Here, we quantitatively describe the relationship between Brachymeria pandora and the Southern Monarch butterfly, Danaus erippus, in urban areas of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso ...

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.ABSTRACT Understanding orchard arthropod populations is a critical element of making strategic decisions regarding pest management. Therefore, it is paramount for farmers and crop consultants to use appropriate survey methods that provide a representative sample of orchard insect ecology. Currently, macadamia (Macadamia integrifolia) industry arthropod

Climate Warming Is Causing an Increasing Dominance of Smaller Moth Species
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Aim To test whether spatial trait–temperature relationships predicted by ecogeographic rules (Bergmann's rule and the thermal melanism hypothesis) can be used as space‐for‐time substitutions to anticipate temporal changes in community morphology under climate warming. Location Finland. Time Period 1993–2021. Major Taxa Studied Geometrid moths (

Local outbreaks of Operophtera brumata and Operophtera fagata cannot be explained by low vulnerability to pupal predation [PDF]
, 2013 One of the unresolved questions in studies on population dynamics of forest Lepidoptera is why some populations at times reach outbreak densities, whereas others never do.

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.Airborne eDNA metabarcoding captured broad patterns of moth diversity and detected species missed by light traps, but failed to reflect abundance and recovered fewer species overall. Airborne eDNA shows promise as a complementary, non‐invasive tool for Lepidopteran monitoring, though methodological refinement remains essential.
