Metabolite‐based resistance in wheat varieties to aphid virus vectors: progress and future opportunities

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 11, Page 7276-7287, November 2025.
Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi are major pests on wheat. Natural product‐based aphid resistance holds promise for the sustainable control of these pests. The current literature is discussed, highlighting knowledge gaps and challenges that need addressing. Abstract Cereal aphids, Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi, cause severe yield loss in

Indirect plant defense may provide economically important pest suppression in sorghum

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 11, Page 7478-7488, November 2025.
Laboratory measures of sorghum direct and indirect plant resistance traits aligned with natural enemy recruitment and pest suppression in the field. Abstract BACKGROUND A promising strategy to optimize biological control of insect pests is selecting crop varieties with indirect defense traits.

Semi‐tilling maintains the arthropod food web structure but decreases biological pest control in olive groves

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 187, Issue 3, Page 345-355, November 2025.
Semi‐tillage, a widely used agricultural method to improve water availability and minimise soil erosion in crops, may compromise pest control in olive groves. Stable isotopes (N15 and C13) analysis showed an effect of semi‐tillage in the composition of the basal resources of potential natural enemies in the three olive grove strata: These changes may ...
