Abstract Pear psyllid (Cacopsylla pyri) is the dominant pest of UK pear orchards, with an estimated cost of £5 million per annum. Insecticide withdrawal and increased pesticide resistance of C. pyri have led many growers to depend more on natural enemies for pest management, including earwigs. However, there is concern how phenological events

Early‐season hot drought in Scots pine limits growth and productivity but improves resilience to late‐season drought through reduced water use. Abstract Tree responses to drought are well studied, but the interacting effects of drought timing on growth, water use, and stress legacy are less understood.

Soil microbiomes conditioned by long‐term warming affect plant belowground performance
Soil microbial communities conditioned by long‐term warming affect the plant performance of Anthoxantum odoratum and Agrostis capillaris by reducing belowground biomass. Abstract Global change affects plant performance, both directly through warming and indirectly through changes in their biotic and abiotic surroundings.

Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Activity spectrum of spinosad and indoxacarb : rationale for an innovative pyrethroid resistance management strategy in West Africa [PDF]
To face pyrethroid resistance in the cotton ballworm Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner), endosulfan (700 g/ha) has been used in a resistance management strategy for four years in Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa.

Abstract Anthropogenic activities have increased CO2 emissions, elevating global temperatures and disrupting rainfall patterns, thus affecting crop productivity. This study examines the photosynthetic performance of Zea mays under elevated temperatures (25°C and 30°C) and CO2 levels (400 and 700 ppm) in two cropping systems: monoculture and an ...
