Evaluating semiochemical‐based strategies for managing ambrosia beetles in apple orchards

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) have emerged as problematic pests in Michigan apple orchards, where their cryptic lifestyle complicates effective management. This study evaluated the efficacy of semiochemical‐based repellents in mitigating beetle infestations, focusing on two key invasive species: Xylosandrus germanus ...

Therapeutic Efficacy of Monoterpenes in Nile Tilapia Infected With Edwardsiella tarda: A Phytogenic Alternative to Oxytetracycline

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this research was to assess the effectiveness of a combination of monoterpenes (thymol and carvacrol) in treating juvenile Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) infected with Edwardsiella tarda as a potential substitute for the antibiotic oxytetracycline. The study utilised different concentrations of the monoterpenes blend (MTs):

Highly Expressed Odorant Receptor Orthologs Detect the Aggregation Pheromone Lineatin in Trypodendron Ambrosia Beetles

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemical communication using pheromones is crucial for the reproductive success of many insect species, including beetles (Coleoptera). Pheromones are detected by specialised odorant receptors (ORs), called pheromone receptors (PRs), in the sensory neurons of the antennae.
