Early grower perceptions and likely acceptance of RNAi‐based biopesticides in Australia

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Individual decisions on the adoption of RNAi‐based biopesticides reflect balance of perceived risks and benefits. Adoption can be facilitated through tailored communication strategies highlighting clear scientific evidence of product efficacy. Abstract BACKGROUND Managing pest resistance while reducing reliance on conventional chemical pesticides ...

Domestic composters as winter reservoirs for the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii in temperate climates

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Domestic composters enable year‐round emergence of Drosophila suzukii, buffering winter temperatures and supporting larval development, potentially enhancing overwintering survival and early‐season crop reinfestation. Abstract BACKGROUND Drosophila suzukii is an invasive pest established worldwide, including in temperate regions with harsh winters.

Oral RNAi reduces survival and grain loss in Rhyzopertha dominica, including phosphine‐resistant populations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Oral delivery of dsRNA targeting essential genes reduces adult survival and grain damage in Rhyzopertha dominica, including highly phosphine‐resistant populations. These findings support RNAi as a complementary mode‐of‐action for resistance management and postharvest protection in stored‐grain systems. Abstract BACKGROUND Phosphine fumigation remains a

Assessment of insecticide use practices in licensed pest control operators in North Carolina

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A statewide survey of 105 licensed North Carolina pesticide operators found ants, mosquitoes, and aphids as top target pests, pyrethroids as the dominant insecticide class (68%), and limited resistance monitoring, establishing a baseline for future insecticide resistance management and outreach.

Persistence of seed‐applied pesticides in soybeans: environmental influences and implications for crop protection

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Early soybean planting in cool, wet soils slows emergence and results in about half the insecticide and fungicide concentrations at vegetative emergence compared with standard planting, where faster emergence maintains roughly double the pesticide concentrations, yet pesticide persistence remains similar across both planting dates.

ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.
