Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Identifying resistance‐conferring cytochrome P450s requires integrating weed characterization, gene discovery and functional validation. No single approach is sufficient to distinguish causal resistance genes from herbicide‐metabolizing enzymes. Abstract Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) play a pivotal role in metabolic herbicide resistance, yet ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Evaluated repellents were effective at deterring white‐tailed deer from consuming wild pig bait piles without deterring wild pig bait consumption, although the deterrents were not effective for other nontarget wildlife. Abstract BACKGROUND Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) are an invasive species that cause environmental and agricultural damage.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.A novel strain‐specific TaqMan quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay targeting the hsdM gene was developed to monitor Bacillus amyloliquefaciens AH2 in strawberries, providing a foundational tool to optimize biocontrol management. Abstract BACKGROUND The biocontrol agent Bacillus amyloliquefaciens AH2 is effective against Botrytis cinerea in ...

Economic evaluation of a weed-activated sprayer for herbicide application to patchy weed populations [PDF]
Spatial distribution of weeds in a crop is patchy. Traditional boom sprayers waste herbicide by applying it to areas where weed density is already low.

Assessment of insecticide use practices in licensed pest control operators in North Carolina
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.A statewide survey of 105 licensed North Carolina pesticide operators found ants, mosquitoes, and aphids as top target pests, pyrethroids as the dominant insecticide class (68%), and limited resistance monitoring, establishing a baseline for future insecticide resistance management and outreach.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Combining intensive drone‐brood removal with brood interruption provided the most effective and consistent seasonal Varroa control. Abstract BACKGROUND Varroa destructor remains the most significant biotic threat to honey bee colonies, and increasing resistance to synthetic acaricides necessitates alternative control strategies.

Effect of crop rotation and tillage on infestation of Cirsium arvense in organic farming systems
, 2004 Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense) is still difficult to control in organic farming systems. Since low competitiveness of most of the crops and limited possibilities for direct control measures, C.

Automatic insect identification, counting, and monitoring techniques: a review
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Automated insect monitoring increasingly integrates optical, acoustic, infrared, radar, electrostatic, and biosensing technologies with artificial intelligence. No single approach is universally optimal; reliable deployment depends on task‐specific validation, representative datasets, robustness under field conditions, energy autonomy, connectivity ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Differences in the suitability of invasive alien plants as hosts drove variations in cascading bottom‐up effects in aphid host and parasitoid performance, potentially influencing top‐down regulation. Abstract BACKGROUND Invasive alien plants (IAP) can threaten biodiversity by disrupting trophic interactions and, consequently, affect agroecosystems by ...
