Multi‐Omics Analyses Elucidate the Venom Components of the Wasp Vespa mandarinia
The wasp Vespa mandarinia was widely reared in Yunnan province. The venom was responsible for their aggressive behavior. Tweety proteases, hyaluronidase, venom dipeptidyl peptidase 4, and phospholipase A1 and A2 isozyme were identified. In addition, organic heterocyclic compounds, organic acids, and derivatives were found.

Entomopathogenic fungi effectively suppressed the emerging soybean pest Euschistus crenator, with isolates LCMAP106, UFSM‐01 and a commercial bioinsecticide achieving the highest mortality. These agents did not reduce parasitism or survival of the egg parasitoid Telenomus podisi, highlighting their potential for integration into environmentally ...

The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Stål, 1855) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), is an invasive harmful pest species due to its economic losses. Its wide host range and continuous movement make its control difficult with insecticides. Biological

Effect of Insect Damage on Seed Germination of Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia)
As shown in the figure, the white‐circled black locust seeds absorbed water and swelled, whereas the red‐circled seeds remained unswollen. This observed cryptic seed heteromorphism in germination is likely attributable not only to the development of an impermeable seed coat during maturation but also to physical damage caused by insects. ABSTRACT Black

Spring–Summer spatial dynamics of Palomena prasina (L.) and potential IPM strategies. ABSTRACT Palomena prasina (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), the green shield bug (GSB), is an important hazelnut pest in Southern Europe. Currently, its control focuses on insecticide spraying during the crop season. We hypothesized that, as for other pentatomid species,

Development of eNA Sampling for Early Detection of Pathogens in On‐Farm Water Sources
We compare four water‐sampling methods for detecting microbial and viral eNA in livestock troughs and show all approaches effectively recover community profiles, supporting flexible, field‐ready surveillance of livestock pathogens. ABSTRACT Early detection of livestock pathogens is critical for mitigating risk and implementing timely control or ...

Orchard Management Influences Predation of Halyomorpha halys Eggs
We investigated predation of eggs of the invasive stink bug Halyomorpha halys on apple trees in conventional, organic, and extensively managed Dutch orchards. Predation exceeded 40% in extensively managed orchards but was only about 10% in conventional and organic ones. We used camera traps to reveal natural enemies that may contribute to H.

The mirid bug Apolygus lucorum (Meyer‐Dür) is a major pest affecting tea. Identifying the dominant predatory spiders of the mirid bug can provide a scientific basis for developing biological control technologies. Xysticus ephippiatus demonstrates the greatest potential as a biological control agent against A. lucorum.
