Commercial entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) were exposed to stress simulating spray application conditions, for viability assessment using different methods. Temperature impacted non‐lethal stress earlier than survival and activity, emphasizing the importance of measuring these parameters to assess pesticide application equipment (PAE) impact on EPN ...

Moth walls: shedding light on moth biodiversity
Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths) is one of the most diverse insect orders on Earth. Its members contribute to important ecosystem services such as pollination and herbivory while also serving as principal food for many other animals. Yet in this age of rapid climate change and declining biodiversity, the current distribution of most moth species ...

We isolated three insect‐killing nematodes from Maladera formosae infested corn–soybean rotated fields, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Pristionchus sp., and Steinernema carpocapsae. Results from greenhouse and field microcosm studies indicate all three nematodes can infect and kill M. formosae grubs and persist through winter.

This study evaluated pheromone‐based mating disruption of the strawberry pest Acleris comariana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). In treated crop areas males were more attracted to the dispensers than to the trap lures and aggregated near such dispensers, explaining the low catches in traps in these areas as an effect of competitive disruption via induced ...

The shift to non‐competitive disruption of Thaumatotibia leucotreta (FCM), resulted in 99% disruption and was achieved at a dosage of 800 dispensers/ha and remained effective with 36 pheromone release sites per ha. Mating disruption is, therefore, highly recommended to form part of the current integrated pest management program for FCM.

Phenological models revealed temperature‐driven development variability in Telenomus remus and Trichogramma foersteri, highlighting potential impacts of climate change on their biological control efficacy in warmer and colder regions. Abstract BACKGROUND The egg parasitoids Telenomus remus (Nixon) and Trichogramma foersteri (Takahashi) were recently ...
