The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Ecofriendly control of Drosophila suzukii via the photoinsecticide chlorophyllin
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Drosophila suzukii can be killed by feeding with sodium‐magnesium‐chlorophyllin and photoactivation with sunlight or LEDs. Chlorophyllin supplementation does not result in food aversion. The moribundity increases with the light‐ and chlorophyllin dose as well as time.

What you eat is what we need: using ants to detect spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) DNA
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The workflow of the ‘antDNA’ method. Ants actively forage on honeydew produced by sap‐sucking insects such as the spotted lanternfly (SLF) and can retain it in their crops, serving as effective ‘honeydew samplers’. Combined with a simple endpoint polymerase chain reaction (PCR)‐based molecular assay, the ant‐derived DNA (antDNA) method provides an ...

A V‐Shaped In‐Pipe Robot to Travel Through Complex Winding Pathways in Three Dimensions
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper presents a V‐shaped gas pipeline inspection robot which achieves high roll rotation performance, out‐of‐plane double elbow travel performance, and inverted siphon adaptability at high speed without requiring complicated manual operation. The principle for traveling through the out‐of‐plane double elbow was theoretically demonstrated

Automated identification of hedgerows and hedgerow gaps using deep learning
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Hedgerows are a diverse habitat and act as wildlife corridors for traversing the agricultural landscape, however they can become fragmented due to poor management, reducing their ecological connectivity. Here we present a novel deep learning framework to quantify hedgerows and hedgerow gaps across the East Riding of Yorkshire in the UK that has high ...

Science Education, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Creating, visualizing, and critiquing data are integral knowledge‐building practices within science, as well as many other fields. Yet data is often treated as neutral and value‐free, perpetuating narratives of science as a dispassionate discipline where data are merely extracted, repackaged, and distributed anew.

Surface Localized Coacervation Controlled by Bioactive Nanoarchitectonic Polyelectrolyte Multilayers
Small, EarlyView.Using enzymatically active nanoarchitectured polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs), localized liquid–liquid phase separation can be directed from a so‐modified surface. In the presence of urea, PEM‐containing urease layers generate a pH gradient near the surface resulting in the self‐coacervation of a model peptide‐based coacervator.
