Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The negative impacts of using insecticide‐treated methods and slot traps against Ips cembrae were evaluated. Negative impacts on predator species of bark beetles such as Thanasimus formicarius and Red‐Listed species were described. Abstract BACKGROUND Ips cembrae is serious forest pest of European larch (Larix decidua).

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly used for plant protection treatments. We describe the corresponding Swiss regulatory framework. We also summarize practical experiences gained from technical assessments performed within this framework, field use patterns and the results of field efficacy trials.

Factors affecting detection and trapping efficacy of Mediterranean fruit flies
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Trapping efficacy for medfly and other fruit flies depends on environmental factors, with ambient conditions having the strongest effect. Cold acclimation can skew population estimates, making careful data interpretation essential for accurate population assessments and early detection of invasive pests.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The addition of 10 μg cm−2 of Cry1Ac to the surface of GS‐omega/kappa‐Hxtx‐Hv1a (ω/κ‐Hv1a) incorporated diet can significantly increase the mortality of Cry‐resistant Helicoverpa zea compared to diets without the Cry1Ac toxin. Abstract BACKGROUND Helicoverpa zea and Spodoptera frugiperda are destructive insect pests of cotton and corn.

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