Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Although seasonality in the tropics is often less pronounced than in temperate areas, tropical ecosystems show seasonal dynamics as well. Nevertheless, individual tropical insects’ phenological patterns are still poorly understood, especially in the ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Social media records highlight diverse household stored‐product arthropods and reveal distinct associations of major pest groups with different room types and specific substrates. Abstract BACKGROUND Stored‐product pests (SPPs) are well studied in food storage and processing facilities, but their occurrence in households remains poorly known.

A practical guide to CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing in Lepidoptera
bioRxiv, 2017 CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing has revolutionized functional genetic work in many organisms and is having an especially strong impact in emerging model systems. Here we summarize recent advances in applying CRISPR/Cas9 methods in Lepidoptera, with a focus on

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Aerial applications deposited more insecticide on tassels than on ear level (36.4% vs. 19.8%). Across both application methods, chlorantraniliprole minimized ear injury, while bifenthrin provided moderate control. Effective management of S. albicosta requires delivering sufficient insecticide concentration to the target site and achieving adequate ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Macroinvertebrate‐based flow indices have potential application to guiding environmental flow allocations and monitoring their effectiveness, but their sensitivity to such flows has seldom been tested. We examined the response of the Australian Macroinvertebrate Flow Index (AMFI), calculated from family‐level data, to three stages of ...

Global range expansion of pest Lepidoptera requires socially acceptable solutions
Biological Invasions, 2017 Caterpillars of key moth pests can cause significant losses in cropping systems worldwide, and globalization is spreading such pests. Failure to control some species can jeopardise the economics of food production.
