Muffled olfactory and sensory cues from the reproductive stage soybean selectively reduce oviposition of a major polyphagous herbivore, fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Fall armyworm (FAW) preferred ovipositing on vegetative‐stage soybeans. While ‘mother knows best’ may not apply in soybean‐FAW system, muffled cues in the reproductive stage could positively influence host success. Abstract BACKGROUND While the mother knows best/preference performance hypothesis has been well tested in natural ecosystems, how these ...

How urban proximity shapes agricultural pest dynamics: a review

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This review explores how proximity to human settlements affects agricultural pest and pathogen dynamics, highlighting the roles of microclimatic conditions, biological aspects, and management effects. It underscores the need for integrated pest management strategies to address these complex interactions and enhance sustainable agriculture.

Target gene selection for sprayable dsRNA‐based biopesticide against Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Silencing Prosbeta‐5 and Prosbeta‐1 resulted in high mortality in Tetranychus urticae, identifying them as potential target genes for double‐stranded RNA‐based biopesticides using spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS). Abstract BACKGROUND Because of the excessive use of synthetic chemicals, the two‐spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, a highly ...

Comparative transcriptomics reveals different profiles between diflubenzuron‐resistant and ‐susceptible phenotypes of the mosquito Culex pipiens

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Comparative gene expression analysis between susceptible and diflubenzuron‐resistant individuals of the mosquito Culex pipiens revealed transcriptional changes of multiple genes associated with insecticide detoxification and cuticle synthesis. Abstract Background Chitin‐synthesis inhibitors (CSIs) represent a major tool in vector control. The intensive

RNAi technology development for weed control: all smoke and no fire?

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Despite the potential of Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing in weed management several critical points such as molecular target, weed species of interest as well as delivery techniques need to be addressed. Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) technology, specifically Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing (SIGS), holds potential as an innovative approach for selective ...
