The value of hybrid and non‐native ash for the conservation of ash specialists is limited following late stages of emerald ash borer invasion

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 355-370, August 2022., 2022
Abstract Widespread mortality of native North American ash caused by emerald ash borer (EAB; Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire) threatens native arthropod biodiversity, but hybrid ash populations with resistance to EAB may serve a role in supporting threatened communities of arthropods in managed landscapes impacted by EAB.

Evaluation of a quasi‐dimeric eugenol derivative as repellent against the stored grain insect pest Sitophilus oryzae (Coleoptera Curculionidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 78, Issue 6, Page 2588-2595, June 2022., 2022
The eugenol derivative showed greater repellence and persistence against the stored grain insect pest Sitophilus oryzae than eugenol but with a less intense smell. Abstract BACKGROUND Essential oils (EOs) and their chemical components are often proposed as an alternative to synthetic pesticides for pest control of foodstuff insect pests. However, their

Novel Approaches for Encapsulation of Plant Probiotic Bacteria with Sustainable Polymer Gums: Application in the Management of Pests and Diseases

open access: yesAdvances in Polymer Technology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The unique attributes, biodegradability, biocompatibility, perfect accessibility, and low production costs led to the use of natural gums in a different section of our lives. Among them, we can mention gums obtained from microorganisms (xanthan gum and gellan gum), plant tissues (Arabic gum and gum tragacanth), seeds (konjac gum and guar gum), seaweeds

Reducing Postharvest Loss of Stored Grains Using Plant‐Based Biopesticides: A Review of Past Research Efforts

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The world population is projected to be 9.1 billion by the year 2050, and about 70% extra food will be required. One of the main challenges regarding food security is postharvest loss due to insect pests. The overall postharvest grain losses for sub‐Saharan Africa could be as high as US$4 billion/year.

Chemical composition and insecticidal activity of essential oils from cultivated and native aromatic plants of Argentina against Carpophilus dimidiatus (Fabricius) (Nitidulidae) and Oryzaephilus mercator (L.) (Silvanidae)

open access: yesNatural Product Research, 2023
Essential oils from aerial parts of six aromatic plants were analysed by GC-MS. The major compounds identified were γ-terpinene (11.5%), cuminaldehyde (26.6%) and γ-terpinen-7-al (40.6%) in Cuminum cyminum, trans-anethol (95.2%) in Pimpinella anisum, α ...

Invasion disharmony in the global biogeography of native and non‐native beetle species

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 11, Page 2050-2062, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim The concept of “island disharmony” has been widely applied to describe the systematic over‐ and under‐representation of taxa on islands compared to mainland regions. Here, we explore an extension of that concept to biological invasions. We compare biogeographical patterns in native and non‐native beetle (Coleoptera) assemblages from around

Fumigant and Toxic Activities of Three Essential Oils Against Oryzaephilus surinamensis (L.) (Coleoptera: Silvanidae)

open access: yesJournal of Plant Protection and Pathology, 2023
Control ways in stored-product soils mainly rely on alternative pesticides. The modification of new environmentally friendly alternatives, such as essential oils (EOs), is a key issue.

Three new species and new records of African Psammoecus Latreille (Coleoptera, Silvanidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Taxonomy, 2014
Three new African species of Psammoecus Latreille, 1829 are described: Psammoecus nyakabuyensis sp. nov., Psammoecus procerus sp. nov. and Psammoecus sinuaticollis sp. nov. New distribution data and a revised identification key for African Psammoecus are
