The monster in the backyard: A cultural analysis of wolf conflict in the American West
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Conflict between people and large carnivores remains among the most persistent problems in conservation, threatening carnivore populations and the communities that live alongside them. Decades of technical and financial research and intervention, from livestock protection tools to compensation programs, have not resolved these conflicts ...

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 ...

Take flight: predation risk induces wing polyphenism and dispersal in the aphid Myzus persicae
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Predator risk above a critical density induces winged morphs in Myzus persicae, promoting dispersal and reducing predation compared with wingless aphids. This density‐dependent phenotypic plasticity enhances survival but may compromise biological control by facilitating aphid dispersal.

The functional role of ants in no‐till cropping systems
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Ants provide valuable ecosystem services in tropical agriculture, but their roles in temperate row crops remain poorly understood. Conservation practices such as no‐till farming and cover cropping support ant communities that contribute to pest suppression, weed seed removal, and soil quality, which can increase crop productivity.

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 ...
