Silencing of juvenile hormone‐related genes through RNA interference leads to molt failure and high mortality in the spongy moth

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The feasibility of using RNA interference to control the globally important quarantine pest, the spongy moth. Targeting genes related to JHs play an important role in the growth and development of insects. First, the open reading frames (ORFs) of Ldjhamt and Ldjheh were identified and characterized, and the target genes were cloned and double‐stranded ...

Pruning slash drives ambrosia beetle (Curculionidae: Scolytinae, Platypodinae) activity in Khaya grandifoliola C.DC.: Slash removal as a preventive management strategy Resíduos de poda aumentam a atividade de besouros da ambrosia (Curculionidae: Scolytinae, Platypodinae) em Khaya grandifoliola C.DC.: A remoção dos resíduos como estratégia preventiva de manejo

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Slash retention increased ambrosia beetle activity in Khaya grandifoliola, acting as both breeding substrate and source of attractive volatile cues that promoted localized population buildup. Beetle attacks occurred only near retained slash, while no attacks were recorded in slash‐removal plots, demonstrating that residue removal effectively prevents ...

From glacial echoes to timber pathways: Climatic–historical drivers and timber‐trade influence on the phylogeography of Ips sexdentatus in the Basque Country

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Ips sexdentatus is expanding across southern Europe, attacking multiple Pinus species and showing the ability to colonize trees at early stages of decline. Genetic analysis of 668 individuals revealed 106 haplotypes, with Iberian populations as diversity hotspots, reflecting long‐term refugial persistence alongside more recent demographic expansion ...
