Establishment of recombinase polymerase amplification detection method for Dactylobotrys graminicola

Scientific Reports
Hulless barley sheath rot is a spike disease caused by Dactylobotrys graminicola. In recent years, it has generally occurred in hulless barley growing areas in China, resulting in reduced hulless barley yields.

Toward the efficient use of Beauveria bassiana in integrated cotton insect pest management

Journal of Cotton Research, 2020
For controlling the resistance to insects, in particular carpophagous and phyllophagous caterpillars, using chemical pesticides has led to contamination of cotton area in Benin.

A Porcine Monoclonal Antibody Targeting a Conserved GP4 Epitope Protects against In Vivo Infection via the Induction of Broad‐Spectrum PRRSV Neutralization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed mAb‐5F2, a monoclonal antibody targeting conserved GP4 residues (Q48/I50), which blocks the GP4‐CD163 interaction, resulting in a 78–85% reduction in viral entry. Porcineized 5F2‐pFc prevented mortality in infected piglets, reduced pulmonary viral loads, and minimized lesions. This broad‐spectrum antibody platform overcomes vaccine

Role of the sigma factor AlgU in regulating growth, virulence, motility, exopolysaccharide production, and environmental stress adaptation of Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae QSY6

Phytopathology Research
The extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor AlgU is involved in the regulation of various virulence-related pathways in Pseudomonas syringae, especially alginate biosynthesis and motility, and the role of AlgU differs among P.

Thermosensory TRPV Heterotetramers Drive Seasonal Polyphenism: Molecular Basis of CcIav/CcNan‐PKCα‐AKH/AKHR Signaling in Pear Psyllid Morph Transition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
At 2 5 °C, thermal activation initiates: i) CcIav/CcNan heterotetramer assembly → Ca2⁺ influx; ii) CcPKCα phosphorylation → AKH signaling potentiation; iii) CcAKH1 binding to membrane‐localized CcAKHR → energy mobilization (lipid catabolism/glycogenolysis) and vitellogenin transport via follicular patency; iv) Oocyte maturation → summer‐form nymph ...

Opportunities for integrated pest management to control the poultry red mite, Dermanyssus gallinae [PDF]

, 2011
Dermanyssus gallinae is the most economically important ectoparasite of laying hens in Europe. Control of D. gallinae is already hampered by issues of pesticide resistance and product withdrawal and, with the prohibition of conventional cages in 2012 and

Integrated pest management in western flower thrips: past, present and future

Pest Management Science, 2017
Western flower thrips (WFT) is one of the most economically important pest insects of many crops worldwide. Recent EU legislation has caused a dramatic shift in pest management strategies, pushing for tactics that are less reliable on chemicals.

Dynamic eIF3‐S6 Phase Separation Switch Instructed by m6A Modification Drives the Molting of Locusts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This research reveals that reduced m6A modifications during insect molting trigger liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) of the m6A reader eIF3‐S6, which binds and stabilizes key molting mRNAs, including EcR and Cht10. Disrupting m6A or LLPS causes cuticle remodeling defects and molting failure, highlighting the synergistic control of gene expression ...
