Determining frequencies of fungicide resistance in Leptosphaeria maculans that render demethylation inhibitor fungicides ineffective in the field

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
As little as 1–10% of the population is needed to be resistant for demethylation inhibitor fungicides to be rendered ineffective. Following a single round of selection, the frequency increases by more than 15% with limited fitness penalty detected when no selection is present.

Disease control in oilseed rape: Current insights and perspectives for next‐generation integrated pest management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Winter oilseed rape in Europe suffers frequent pathogen losses. This review outlines key integrated pest management (IPM) strategies, rotation, residue and tillage management, optimized sowing, resistance, and targeted fungicides supported by forecasting.

Experimental dissection of phenotypic variation for quantitative disease resistance in canola (Brassica napus) – Leptosphaeria maculans interactions

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates how quantitative resistance to Leptosphaeria maculans in canola is experimentally estimated through multi‐environment replicated trials measuring crown canker severity. Genotype, environment and pathogen sources feed into phenotyping, followed by variance partitioning using mixed models and beta regression to ...

Modelling the phenology of the grapevine leafhopper Erasmoneura vulnerata

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study developed and validated a phenological population dynamics model for Erasmoneura vulnerata, integrating field monitoring and literature data to reproduce observed seasonal patterns across multiple sites. Abstract BACKGROUND Erasmoneura vulnerata (Fitch) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is an invasive Nearctic leafhopper that has become a pest of ...

Phenology of Major Sucking Pests and Their Natural Enemies on Cotton in Relation to Meteorological Variables

Jammu Kashmir Journal of Agriculture
A seasonal study was conducted from May to September to monitor the dynamics of sucking pests thrips, leafhoppers, and whiteflies and their natural enemies, including spiders, coccinellids, and Chrysoperla, in relation to weather parameters. Maximum temperatures ranged from 33.1°C to 45.6°C, minimum temperatures from 24.0°C to 32.7°C, and relative ...

Sublethal herbicide exposure alters cotton susceptibility to aphid infestation

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Sublethal herbicide exposure altered cotton susceptibility to aphids. Aphid severity was highest when applications occurred at early vegetative stages and declined as the crop matured. In glasshouse, herbicide effects were dose‐dependent. Abstract BACKGROUND Herbicides remain vital tools for weed control, yet their effects can extend beyond weeds to ...

Intercropping mitigates incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Intercropping reduces the incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex with a significant impact of the direct visual and physical disruption provided by the companion plant. Abstract BACKGROUND Oilseed rape (OSR, Brassica napus) is a major crop requiring numerous phytosanitary treatments.
