Advancing Sclerotinia risk forecasting for winter rapeseed in Germany: integrating crop phenology and disease development into a decision support system

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Integrating crop phenology and sclerotia germination models into SkleroPro improved Sclerotinia risk prediction accuracy from 34% to 66%, optimizing fungicide timing and supporting sustainable winter rapeseed production. Abstract BACKGROUND Sclerotinia stem rot, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, threatens winter rapeseed (Brassica napus) production ...

SYN‐A, a naturally derived synergist, restores pyrethroid efficacy against cabbage stem flea beetle but negatively impacts its parasitoid Microctonus brassicae

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
SYN‐A, a naturally derived synergist, inhibited key metabolic pathways associated with pyrethroid insecticide resistance in cabbage stem flea beetle (CSFB) and its parasitoid Microctonus brassicae. SYN‐A restored pyrethroid efficacy against resistant CSFB allowing up to 80% reduction in application rates.

Effect of microclimatic temperatures on the development period of 3 rice planthopper species (Hemiptera: Delphacidae): a phenology model based on field observations

Environmental Entomology
Most pest phenology models are temperature dependent. Generally, the air temperature at reference height is used to predict pest development, but the air temperature varies between inside and outside the crop canopy, where pests reside.

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

Pest 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.
