Eri silkworm eggs as a superior factitious host for mass rearing Trichogramma leucaniae, the key natural enemy of soybean pod borer

Biological Control
The soybean pod borer (SPB), Leguminivora glycinivorella (Matsumura), is a major constraint to soybean production, highlighting the urgent need for effective and sustainable biological control strategies in this short-lasting agroecosystem.

Polyelectrolyte Multilayer: Caged PTFE Particles in Water for Continuous, Sonochemical H2O2 Synthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A yolk–shell PTFE‐based composite (YSP) enables tunable, robust hydrophobic–water interfaces for efficient, on‐demand sonocatalytic H2O2 generation and pollutant degradation. ABSTRACT The use of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particles to promote sonochemical H2O2 production has attracted growing interest, as cavitation bubbles formed at or near their ...

Enviromics and Abiotic Enviromics: Enhancing Stress Biology and Plant Resilience Breeding

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Environmental stressors are captured through high‐throughput envirotyping and integrated into an enviromic framework with genomic, transcriptomic, phenomic, and environmental data. AI/ML models enable prediction and guide marker‐assisted selection, genomic selection, genome editing, and gene pyramiding toward improved abiotic stress tolerance, yield ...

MOF‐Derived Cu‐TiO2/Alginate Micromotors for Buoyancy‐Regulated 3D Motion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, cyanobacteria‐inspired sodium alginate (SA)/Cu‐TiO2/Fe3O4 hydrogel micromotors generate and encapsulate O2 microvesicles upon light irradiation, enabling buoyancy‐mediated Z‐axis upward migration and surface enrichment at the light‐exposed water‐air surface.

WILLINGNESS TO PAY TO AVOID HEALTH RISKS FROM PESTICIDES, A CASE STUDY FROM NICARAGUA [PDF]

A contingent valuation approach to assess the health effects of pesticides among Nicaraguan vegetable farmers is presented. Farmers' valuation of health is measured as willingness to pay (WTP) for low toxicity pesticides.
