Validation of the prognosis model SIMAGRIO‐W to predict larval activity in top soil layers for Agriotes larvae in eastern Austria Validierung des Prognosemodells SIMAGRIO‐W zur Vorhersage der Aktivität von Agriotes‐Larven in den obersten Bodenschichten in Ostösterreich

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Wireworms migrate within the soil column depending on the temperature and moisture content of the soil. SIMAGRIO‐W model accuracy comparison between Germany and Austria. Different temperature preferences highlight the need for species‐specific modelling.

A systematic review on research trends and commercialised entomopathogenic nematodes: A global perspective

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Out of 136 identified EPNs, only 18 (8 Steinernema and 6 Heterorhabditis) are commercialised globally, highlighting a major gap between discovery and application. High production costs and inconsistent field efficacy are the leading obstacles to the widespread commercialisation of EPN‐based biocontrol products.

Getting ahead of the crises: Developing an avian malaria disease management plan for Hawaiian forest birds

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Avian malaria poses a growing threat to native Hawaiian forest birds as climate change enables its spread into previously disease‐free areas like Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge. This study presents a proactive, tiered disease management plan to help land managers monitor and respond to malaria risk, offering a model for broader conservation ...

Plant Domestication Affects the Oviposition Behavior and Performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a Parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry

Ecdysteroids, juvenile hormone and vitellogenesis in the cockroach Leucophaea maderae

open access: yesJournal of Insect Science, 2002
Topical application of 400µg of the juvenile hormone analog, methoprene, to females of the penultimate instar of Leucophaea maderae failed to induce vitellogenin synthesis.

Effects of Phytoplasma Infection on Aster Leafhopper (Macrosteles quadrilineatus) Settling Behavior and Development on Brassica napus

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Aster yellows phytoplasma (AYp) infection alters host plant preference in aster leafhoppers (Macrosteles quadrilineatus), with infected vectors showing a significant preference for AYp‐infected canola (Brassica napus) early in the infection period. However, this preference fades as infection progresses. Despite early attraction, B.
