Assessment of the 2020 post‐market environmental monitoring report on the cultivation of genetically modified maize MON 810 in the EU

EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission; the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) assessed the 2020 post‐market environmental monitoring (PMEM) report on the cultivation of Cry1Ab‐expressing maize event MON 810. Like previous years, there was full compliance with refuge requirement in Portugal and partial compliance with refuge ...

A multi‐year dormancy strategy in a cabbage beetle population in southeastern China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
Our results showed that duration of diapause for adults collected in different years varied from several months to 5 years. Approximately 25.9%–29.2% of individuals showed prolonged diapause over the 5 years of observation. The temperature and photoperiod during induction have a significant influence on the incidence of prolonged diapause. Abstract The

Update of environmental risk assessment conclusions and risk management recommendations of EFSA (2016) on EU teosinte

EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Teosinte, wild maize relatives originating from Mexico and Central America, emerged as a noxious agricultural weed in France and Spain. In 2016, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) issued a technical report that assessed the available scientific information on teosinte for its relevance for the environmental risk assessment (ERA) and ...

Assessment of Sesamia nonagrioides (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) EcR and USP Genes as Targets for Exogenous Non-Persistent RNAi

Diversity, 2021
RNA interference (RNAi) is a transforming technology with high potential for practical applications in biology, including specific and safe insect pest control. For developing RNAi-based pest-control products no general recommendations exist and the best

Asian corn borer damage is affected by rind penetration strength of corn stalks in a spatiotemporally dependent manner

Plant Direct, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Asian corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis (Guenée), is an important insect pest of maize throughout most of Asia. The rind of a maize stalk is a key barrier against corn borer larvae boring into the plant. There is a need to better understand the relationship between stalk strength and O.

Insect pest management in the age of synthetic biology

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 20, Issue 1, Page 25-36, January 2022., 2022
Summary Arthropod crop pests are responsible for 20% of global annual crop losses, a figure predicted to increase in a changing climate where the ranges of numerous species are projected to expand. At the same time, many insect species are beneficial, acting as pollinators and predators of pest species.

Unoccupied aerial systems discovered overlooked loci capturing the variation of entire growing period in maize

The Plant Genome, Volume 14, Issue 2, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Traditional phenotyping methods, coupled with genetic mapping in segregating populations, have identified loci governing complex traits in many crops. Unoccupied aerial systems (UAS)‐based phenotyping has helped to reveal a more novel and dynamic relationship between time‐specific associated loci with complex traits previously unable to be ...
