Evaluating larvicide performance against Culicoides sonorensis in semi‐field conditions

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the efficacy of larvicide products against Culicoides sonorensis populations under controlled semi‐field conditions. Larvicide efficacy against C. sonorensis declined over time, in different environmental conditions. In particular, precipitation and habitat disturbance influenced residual performance. Abstract BACKGROUND Culicoides

Reducing copper inputs through integration of essential oil‐based formulations: laboratory and 2‐year vineyard evaluation against Plasmopara viticola

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Combining an essential oil (EO)‐based formulation with copper effectively controls Plasmopara viticola. Field trials showed a 92–99% protection with lower copper inputs, achieving a 45% copper reduction without compromising efficacy. This approach supports EO‐based products as sustainable alternatives for grapevine downy mildew management.

Inheritance and stability of Cry2Ab2 resistance in an Ostrinia nubilalis strain originating from Wisconsin, U.S.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Resistance to Cry2Ab2 protein in Ostrinia nubilalis is autosomal, functionally recessive, controlled by a single gene, and remains stable over 17 generations in the absence of Cry2Ab2 selection pressure. Abstract BACKGROUND Transgenic corn expressing insecticidal proteins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), including Cry1Ab, Cry1Fa and/or ...

Oral RNAi reduces survival and grain loss in Rhyzopertha dominica, including phosphine‐resistant populations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Oral delivery of dsRNA targeting essential genes reduces adult survival and grain damage in Rhyzopertha dominica, including highly phosphine‐resistant populations. These findings support RNAi as a complementary mode‐of‐action for resistance management and postharvest protection in stored‐grain systems. Abstract BACKGROUND Phosphine fumigation remains a

Assessment of insecticide use practices in licensed pest control operators in North Carolina

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A statewide survey of 105 licensed North Carolina pesticide operators found ants, mosquitoes, and aphids as top target pests, pyrethroids as the dominant insecticide class (68%), and limited resistance monitoring, establishing a baseline for future insecticide resistance management and outreach.
