Effective target genes for RNA interference‐based management of the cabbage stem flea beetle

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
An oral RNAi screen consisting of 27 dsRNAs identified effective target genes for RNAi‐based pest control in the cabbage stem flea beetle The most effective target genes were involved in proteasomal pathways or gene expression, and their sequences were subjected to in silico off‐target analysis Knock‐down of some effective target genes also inhibited ...

The salivary gland transcriptome of Varroa destructor reveals suitable targets for RNAi‐based mite control

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
RNAseq and differential expression analysis identified 15 salivary gland genes encoding secreted proteins with putative anti‐bacterial, anti‐fungal, cytolytic, digestive and immunosuppressive function. The three most highly transcribed genes were selected to study their functional importance by reverse genetics, using a non‐invasive approach of dsRNA ...

Specialized metabolites present in Camellia reticulata nectar inhibit the growth of nectar‐inhabiting microorganisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Plant specialized metabolites are species-specific compounds that help plants adapt and survive in constantly changing ecological environments. Nectar contains various specialized metabolites, essential for maintaining nectar homeostasis.

Wasps Beyond Bees: Crop Species of Spondias (Anacardiaceae) Vary in Floral Scent and Attract Different Pollinator Taxa

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spondias species are increasingly valued for their fruit production, which relies heavily on insect pollination. The flowers of these species are generalised, attracting a diverse array of insect visitors, including bees, beetles, flies, wasps and butterflies.

Impact of Mulches on Floral Visitors in Day‐Neutral Strawberries and Contribution of Syrphid Flies to Strawberry Pollination

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Animal‐mediated pollination is essential for the production of many specialty crops, with insects, primarily bees, serving as the predominant pollinators in many agroecosystems. However, increasing management problems with honey bees and declines in native bee populations due to various environmental stressors have highlighted the importance ...

A Systematic Literature Review on Auction Mechanisms: Insights From the Last Decade and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study reports the results of a systematic literature review on auctions mechanism. Auctions are a very popular practice employed in many fields but does not exist a research that investigates the use of auctions under a cross‐disciplinary approach. This work is focused on analyzing which are the areas where auctions are mostly adopted and
