Effect of Pest Control Strategies on Arthropod Pests of Apple in Europe: A Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 6, Page 957-987, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a major fruit crop in Europe. More than 200 phytophagous arthropod species thrive in European apple orchards, several of which are economically important pests. Due to the pest pressure on apple production, consumer demand for residue‐free products and current policies to make food production in the European ...

Serratia spp. bacteria evolved in Aotearoa‐New Zealand for infection of endemic scarab beetles

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 121-143, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The Melolonthinae branch of the beetle family Scarabaeidae has evolved in isolation in Aotearoa, radiating into >100 endemic species, since Aotearoa separated from Gondwanaland 82 million years ago. The group includes important pasture pests, such as the New Zealand grass grub Costelytra giveni and the manuka beetle Pyronota festiva.

Natural products from Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus show promise as biolarvicides against Aedes albopictus

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 9, Page 4231-4242, September 2024.
Entomopathogenic organisms are novel biopesticide sources. Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp. are quite effective against Aedes albopictus larvae. Fabclavine can be developed into biolarvicides or used as a model to synthesize new compounds. Abstract BACKGROUND In the perpetual struggle to manage mosquito populations, there has been increasing demand ...
