Insect Science, EarlyView.Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Insecticide Efficacy for Root Weevil on Strawberry, 1997 [PDF]
Arthropod Management Tests, 1998 Abstract Treatments were replicated four times in a 2-year-old ‘Rainier’ strawberry field in La Center, WA. Plots measuring 3 rows wide and 25 ft long were arranged in a RCB design. Sprays were applied on 6 Jun with a tractor-mounted 6-tank plot sprayer with a 3-row boom using 3 D4-45 TeeJet nozzles per row at 150 psi, delivering 100 gal/

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Molecular identification of insect food webs can accurately reveal complex trophic interactions and serve as a foundation for understanding ecosystem functioning and advancing biodiversity conservation. This process typically involves DNA library construction, high‐throughput sequencing and subsequent steps, including data assembly, annotation,

A Computer Simulation Model of Waterhyacinth and Weevil Interactions [PDF]
, 1991 A personal computer simulation model termed INSECT has been developed to evaluate biological control of waterhyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms.) by two species of weevil (Neochetina eichhorniae Warner, and N. bruchi Hustache).

Evaluation of sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) germplasm from north-eastern Uganda through a Farmer Participatory Approach [PDF]
, 2002 Ugandan farmers grow many landrace sweetpotato varieties, but some of these are relatively low yielding and susceptible to pests. The objective of the present research was to involve farmers in a large-scale assessment of Ugandan farmers’ varieties to ...

Refuge by day, forage by night: Diel activity of vine weevil as characterised by smart monitoring
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Vine weevil activity was monitored using a Smart trap, which recorded diel refuge‐seeking behaviour. Increasing light intensity triggered refuge seeking behaviour, while lower light intensity induced forage seeking activity. Understanding vine weevil diel activity can enhance early detection, which can improve the effectiveness of integrated pest ...

Prospects of the use of wild relatives for pea (Pisum sativum L.) breeding
Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2015 The current global climate change results in shift and shrinkage of ranges of crop cultivation. The potential of crop wild relatives as an important source of genetic diversity for breeding is underestimated.
