Nutritional missed opportunity costs: wild house mice (Mus musculus) consistently consume less preferred food, with implications for control

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Wild house mice consistently consumed a less‐preferred, protein‐rich food despite access to a higher‐energy, preferred option. This suggests that fitness costs from imbalanced diets – nutritional missed opportunity costs – can override preference and energy maximisation, highlighting the potential to improve bait uptake by selecting bait substrates ...

Whole‐genome sequencing reveals novel ryanodine receptor mutations P4568L and Y4701D conferring high‐level chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome sequencing identified novel ryanodine receptor mutations P4568L and Y4701D causing >1000‐fold chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera litura, enabling development of molecular diagnostics for proactive resistance management. Abstract BACKGROUND Spodoptera litura is a significant insect pest that attacks many agricultural crops ...

Effects of lithium chloride on queen egg‐laying performance and worker honey bee behavior

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Chronic oral lithium chloride (LiCl) exposure effectively increases Varroa mite mortality without impairing queen egg laying or brood care behaviors, while significantly reducing worker bee aggression, suggesting its potential for safe Varroa management and mitigating colony aggression.
