Feast or famine: How food deserts, wealth and greenspace correlate with coyote diets in Seattle, Washington

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban environments create unique challenges for wildlife, where dietary habits may reflect both ecological heterogeneity and societal disparities. In this study, we explored how social factors such as household income and human population density, and ecological factors such as tree canopy correlate with coyote (Canis latrans) diets in Seattle,

Discovery of edodine, a natural compound from Lentinula edodes with antibacterial activity for the biological control of fire blight pathogen Erwinia amylovora

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Novel edodine was identified from Lentinula edodes HK761, exhibiting biocontrol potential against fire blight by affecting motility, intracellular ATP level, and cell division of Erwinia amylovora. Abstract BACKGROUND In the search for biological resources with antibacterial activity against Erwinia amylovora, the culture filtrate of Lentinula edodes ...

Assessing pest control treatments from phenology models and field data

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1851-1859, April 2025.
Theoretical effect of two larvicide sprays, two delayed larvicide sprays that follow an oil treatment, mating disruption, and mating disruption plus four virus sprays on codling moth larva (brown for treated versus pink for untreated) and adult (dark green for treated versus light green for untreated) phenology.

Effects of timed LED regimes on tomato plant traits, performance of two‐spotted spider mites, and predatory mites (Phytoseiulus persimilis)

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2300-2311, April 2025.
Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Design of a Novel Gripping Mechanism and Dual Manipulator Robotic System for Apple Harvesting Using Tractor

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The architecture of apple orchards can be converted to easier operation by implementing the use of a low‐cost, tractor‐mounted, dual manipulator based on a robotic harvesting system with lower degrees of freedom (DoF). To accurately avoid injuries by detecting apples, an efferent, real‐time vision system that includes a new gripping mechanism ...

Time‐series digital camera photos combined with machine learning algorithms can realize accurate observation of flowering phenology

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Intelligent approaches are required to extract valuable phenological information from time‐series digital camera photos. In this research, we employed YOLO‐based object detection and semantic segmentation models to identify flowers and flower pixels, acquire flower count and flower cover data, and extract phenophases such as first, peak, and end ...

Retrospective image analysis for long‐term demography using Google Earth imagery

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that high‐resolution Google Earth imagery, combined with minimal field validation, enables retrospective tracking of individual invasive plants. The image shows one of the monitored individuals of Opuntia sp. in Greece. Our approach reveals long‐term demographic patterns, recruitment dynamics, and spatial expansion without continuous ...
