Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

“Tremble, pests”: Insect natural enemy‐induced changes in pests before attack and their implications for biological control

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Abstract Insect natural enemies, encompassing predators and parasitoids, serve as vital regulators of pest populations and architects of ecosystem balance. Most studies on natural enemies have focused on understanding the mechanisms by which these insects eliminate pests after an attack.

An RNA interference biopesticide reduces reproduction of the honey bee parasite Varroa destructor by down‐regulating embryo development pathways

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Varroa destructor mites exposed to dsRNA specific in sequence to a V. destructor calmodulin gene significantly effected gene expression of adult female mites sampled 5 days after entering a honey bee brood cell to reproduce. Significantly down‐regulated genes included Calmodulin and were associated with calcium ion binding and embryo developmental ...

How effective are entomopathogenic nematodes for vine weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) biological control? A meta‐analysis

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Entomopathogenic nematodes provide reliable biological control of vine weevil larvae, reducing populations by 63% on average. All five tested species are effective, with temperature (18–30 °C) being the strongest predictor of success. Abstract BACKGROUND Vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) is a globally important pest of soft fruit and ornamental crops

From fertilizer to insecticide: urban leaf litter chemistry alters the survival landscape of Aedes aegypti

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Chemical profiling and bioassays reveal that leaf‐litter leachates from urban trees flip between nourishing and killing Aedes aegypti larvae: dilute Tipuana tipu boosts growth, whereas concentrated, aged extracts are >90% lethal. Species‐specific chemistry thus turns street trees into potential self‐renewing tools for integrated vector control ...
