Biochar Suppresses Growth, Pupation and Eclosion Success of a Specialist (Manduca sexta) and a Generalist (Spodoptera frugiperda) Insect Herbivore

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Biochar is a charcoal‐like substance made by the pyrolysis of organic material from agricultural and forestry waste. While biochar is well documented for altering soil physicochemical conditions, few studies have investigated its possible effects on the management of arthropod pests.

Advances in ozone technology for preservation of grains and end products: Application techniques, control of microbial contaminants, mitigation of mycotoxins, impact on quality, and regulatory approvals

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 3, May 2025.
Abstract Ozone has emerged as a promising technology for preserving stored grains and end products. Its efficiency as a biocide and the absence of residues make it an attractive alternative to traditional chemical methods of food preservation. This study reviews recent advancements in ozone application techniques, including continuous flow treatments ...

Pairing Residual Contact Insecticide Use With Long‐Lasting Insecticide‐Incorporated Netting to Reduce Dispersal and Damage by Stored Product Insects

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 4, Page 501-514, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Long‐lasting insecticide‐incorporated netting (LLIN) can intercept insects and has shown promise for pest management before and after harvest in agriculture. Understanding how to incorporate LLIN into existing integrated pest management (IPM) programs, with other commonly used tactics like residual contact insecticides, can significantly ...

The cryptonephridial/rectal complex: an evolutionary adaptation for water and ion conservation

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 2, Page 647-671, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Arthropods have integrated digestive and renal systems, which function to acquire and maintain homeostatically the substances they require for survival. The cryptonephridial complex (CNC) is an evolutionary novelty in which the renal organs and gut have been dramatically reorganised. Parts of the renal or Malpighian tubules (MpTs) form a close

Influence of winter savory (Satureja montana) aqueous extract on mortality of lesser grain borer (Rhyzopertha dominica) [PDF]

open access: yesBotanica Serbica, 2018
Losses of grain quality and quantity as a result of insect activity during storage impose the need for proper pest control. One of the major pests of stored wheat is the lesser grain borer (LGB), Rhyzopertha dominica. This pest is usually controlled with
