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

Pest 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 ...

Insecticide resistant Anopheles from Ethiopia but not Burkina Faso show a microbiota composition shift upon insecticide exposure

Parasites & Vectors
Background Malaria remains a key contributor to mortality and morbidity across Africa, with the highest burden in children under 5. Insecticide-based vector control tools, which target the adult Anopheles mosquitoes, are the most efficacious tool in ...

Challenges and opportunities for embedding social science in pesticide resistance research and outreach

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Pest resistance management constitutes a ‘wicked problem’ that requires meaningful transdisciplinary collaboration involving social sciences. This article outlines their theoretical and methodological diversity, demonstrated through herbicide and insecticide resistance scholarship.

Preventative insecticides reduce seedling injury, but do not increase yield in Bt and non‐Bt corn grown in the mid‐Atlantic

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) traits, neonicotinoid seed treatments (NSTs), and in‐furrow pyrethroids (IFPs) can control insect pests of corn, but their target spectrum may be redundant and/or mismatch Mid‐Atlantic pest pressure. Across 9 site‐years insecticide treatments reduced pest damage and sometimes increased plant stand, but never improved yield ...

Current stewardship practices in invasion biology limit the value and secondary use of genomic data

Molecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Invasive species threaten native biota, putting fragile ecosystems at risk and having a large‐scale impact on primary industries. Growing trade networks and the popularity of personal travel make incursions a more frequent risk, one only compounded by global climate change.

Improving Wolbachia-Based Control Programs in Urban Settings: Insights from Spatial Modeling [PDF]

arXiv
Arboviral diseases remain a major public health concern, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions where mosquito populations thrive. One promising strategy to curb transmission is the release of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes infected with Wolbachia, a bacterium that reduces their ability to spread viruses. However, past large-scale releases have not
