Field resistance of orange fruit to citrus black spot and citrus canker in D‐limonene synthase downregulated trees

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Genetically modified (GM) sweet‐oranges with downregulated CitMTSE1 gene showed reduced citrus black spot severity and citrus canker incidence, confirming terpene modulation as a promising strategy for sustainable field citrus disease resistance. Abstract BACKGROUND Citrus black spot (CBS), caused by Phyllosticta citricarpa, and citrus canker (CC ...

Breeding cold‐tolerant Orius laevigatus lines improves thermal tolerance and body size: implications for biological control

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Biological control agents performance is influenced by temperature. Two cold‐tolerant lines of O. loevigatus were developed, improving their fitness at both low and high temperatures, offering advantages far augmentative biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND The performance of biological control agents (BCAs) is strongly influenced by environmental ...

Characteristics of fungicide resistance in Asian soybean rust (Phakopsora pachyrhizi) in Paraguay for 2022–2023: insights from genetic mutations and molecular dynamics simulations

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Phakopsora pachyrhizi in Paraguay showed diverse resistance to DMI, SDHI, and QoI fungicides at both regional and intra‐field levels, likely driven by target mutation genes. Abstract BACKGROUND Phakopsora pachyrhizi, the causative agent of Asian soybean rust, poses a major threat to soybean production in South America. The rising incidence of fungicide

Ethyl formate diluted with nitrogen is an effective biosecurity treatment for brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This research found that ethyl formate effectively controls adult brown marmorated stink bugs (Halyomorpha halys) regardless of dormancy state or temperature, at concentrations nine times lower than previous studies. Abstract BACKGROUND The brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys) (BSMB) is a biosecurity threat globally. Its most likely avenue of

How effective are entomopathogenic nematodes for vine weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) biological control? A meta‐analysis

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Entomopathogenic nematodes provide reliable biological control of vine weevil larvae, reducing populations by 63% on average. All five tested species are effective, with temperature (18–30 °C) being the strongest predictor of success. Abstract BACKGROUND Vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) is a globally important pest of soft fruit and ornamental crops
