Spatial and seasonal patterns of potential orchard pollinators across a Lake Ontario gradient

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 658-663, November 2026.
Potential pollinator captures varied by season, trap height and distance from Lake Ontario, indicating that flower visitors were not evenly distributed during apple bloom. Several common bee genera, including Lasioglossum, Agapostemon, Andrena and Apis, overlapped more closely with apple bloom than the dominant retained fly genus, Toxomerus.

Orchard netting impacts on biodiversity leading to cascading effects at the ecosystem level

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2448-2466, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Agriculture must ensure food production without further compromising the ecosystem functions upon which it depends. Agricultural practices should therefore avoid harming farmland biodiversity, especially of taxa that supply the key ecosystem services (e.g.

Review on Gelling and Foaming Agents in Food: Mechanism and Applications

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
A comprehensive Graphical Abstract to visualize how different food additives act as gelling and foaming agents. It emphasizes their shared origin as hydrocolloids or proteins but distinct operational mechanisms that transform food materials. The diagram provides a clear path from molecular structure and interaction principles to the specific macro ...

Can a LiDAR-enhanced Air-blast Sprayer Improve Coverage on Tough Targets like Tree Trunks and Emerging Shoots?

HortTechnology
Eastern filbert blight (EFB) and pacific flatheaded borer (PFB) are two problems of Pacific Northwest orchard and nursery production. Fungicides and insecticides used to manage these issues are typically applied to plant tissues with minimal foliage ...

Assessment of Electrical Resistance Sensors Sensitivity to Localized Corrosion

Materials and Corrosion, Volume 77, Issue 10, Page 1653-1661, October 2026.
Are electrical resistance (ER) sensors reliable for localized corrosion detection? This study combines analytical modeling and experimental validation to show the vulnerability of ER sensors. The results demonstrate significant underestimation of the true corrosion depth of localized attacks depending on defect's geometry.

IMPACT OF TEHNICAL SPRAYING FACTORS ON LEAF AREA COVERAGE IN PERMANENT CROPS [PDF]

Poljoprivreda, 2013
Researches are conducted in vineyard and apple orchard with two different types of mist blowers, axial (Hardi Zaturn) and radial (Hardi Arrow). The influence of major technical spraying factors (type of nozzle, working speed and spray volume) were ...

When Winters Fail: How Warming Winters Fuel Pest Resurgence and Threaten Food Security

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata, Wiedemann; Diptera: Tephritidae), commonly known as the Medfly, re‐emerged in Mazandaran province, northern Iran—home to an estimated 25% of the nation's fruit crops and approximately 80% of its citrus production—following its apparent eradication in 1984, an outcome consistent with several ...

Host plant‐specific volatiles of Beauveria bassiana‐colonized plants initiate trophic plant–aphid–predator cascades

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9538-9552, October 2026.
Endophytic colonization of melon plants by B. bassiana modifies the crop volatile profiles in a genotype‐dependent manner. A predator choice is biased toward endophytically colonized plants infested with aphids revealing a guardian within effect of the fungus of great potential in integrated pest management.

Effects of elevated CO2 and temperature on cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium L.) and its herbicide response

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 10303-10311, October 2026.
Elevated CO2 promotes the growth of Xanthium strumarium while increasing its susceptibility to the systemic herbicide trifloxysulfuron‐sodium. The efficacy of the soil‐active herbicide fluometuron remains unaffected by changes in CO2 concentration and temperature.
