Method and timing of rhizobacteria inoculation to plant roots alters success and strength of aphid suppression

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Inoculating plants with beneficial rhizobacteria using sodium alginate encapsulation to create ‘bacterial beads’ offers a targeted method for pest control for crop plants. Delivering rhizobacteria to roots at germination enhanced aphid suppression compared to seed inoculations.

Local species‐specific effect of trees and shrubs on the incidence of the millet head miner, Heliocheilus albipunctella (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae)

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the interactions between crop pests, natural enemies and semi‐natural habitats in agricultural landscapes is crucial for developing ecology‐based pest management in agroecosystems. In the present study, we investigated the local‐scale species‐specific effect of tree and shrub cover and diversity on the incidence and natural pest ...

Identification of potential predators of western bean cutworm (Striacosta albicosta) in field corn through molecular gut‐content analysis

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The noctuid pest western bean cutworm (Striacosta albicosta) lays its eggs in corn fields over the season. Various generalist predators consume the eggs and larvae of this pest. To improve integrated pest management of S. albicosta, this study identified key trophic interactions between S. albicosta and predatory arthropods in corn fields.

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
