Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

Variable Isotopic Compositions of Host Plant Populations Preclude Assessment of Aphid Overwintering Sites

open access: yesInsects, 2017
Soybean aphid (Aphis glycines Matsumura) is a pest of soybean in the northern Midwest whose migratory patterns have been difficult to quantify. Improved knowledge of soybean aphid overwintering sites could facilitate the development of control efforts ...

Potential patterns of fall armyworm seasonal migration in West Africa modeled with atmospheric trajectory analyses

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Migratory fall armyworms in West African breeding habitats showed clear seasonal movements: shifting southwest from January to May, turning northeast in June to July, and returning southwest from August to December. Abstract BACKGROUND The migratory invasive species fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, FAW) has established year‐round populations in ...

Colonisation potential of the bark beetle (Taphrorychus bicolor) on beech logs and logging residues: ecological context and implications for pest management in forests

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Beech residues left in shaded or semi‐shaded conditions pose a substantial risk of local Taphrorychus bicolor population outbreaks. The rapid removal or placement of residues in sun‐exposed locations can help mitigate this risk. Abstract BACKGROUND The bark beetle Taphrorychus bicolor has been traditionally classified as a secondary pest of European ...

Overwintering temperature affects lipid and fatty acid metabolism in hepatopancreas and ovary of female mud crab Scylla paramamosain

open access: yesAquaculture Reports
The influence of four overwintering temperatures, namely 8 ℃, 12 ℃, 16 ℃, and 20 ℃, on lipid metabolism and fatty acid profile in the hepatopancreas and ovary tissues of female mud crab Scylla paramamosain was investigated during eight weeks.

West Nile virus in overwintering mosquitoes, central Europe

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
West Nile virus (WNV) is currently the most important mosquito-borne pathogen spreading in Europe. Data on overwintering of WNV in mosquitoes are crucial for understanding WNV circulation in Europe; nonetheless, such data were not available so far.
