Global climate change will modify the distribution areas of important cereal bugs by changing environmental conditions. Information on their dispersal possibilities can help to clarify their future economic importance and damage potential. In this study, we modelled the current potential and future distribution of four important pests by using the ...

The Insect Calculator: A web tool to predict meadow arthropods based on mowing impacts
Although the biodiversity crisis and insect decline have gained increasing scientific and public attention, they persist, indicating that current measures are insufficient. The Insect Calculator (insektentaschenrechner.de/en), a digital tool that models and visualises the effects of mowing and environmental parameters on arthropod density and species ...

We present an event‐based FS–probability mapping to link physically based slope stability analysis with statistical probability prediction. Results indicate a mappable relationship between factor of safety and landslide probability, and the hybrid model shows comparable discriminative performance across two extreme‐rainfall events with contrasting ...

Bacillus thuringiensis and its pest control potential as endophyte
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) systemically colonizes tomato plants as endophyte, inducing midgut damage, fitness reduction and immune suppression in Spodoptera littoralis larvae feeding on Bt‐colonized leaves. The immune suppression enhances the susceptibility to Bt treatments, allowing a synergistic dual use of Bt commercial formulations, by combined ...

Rhizobacterial inoculation of barley reduced Sitobion avenae populations by inducing plant resistance and modifying volatiles that attracted parasitoid wasps earlier, enhancing both bottom‐up and top‐down pest control. Abstract BACKGROUND Soil rhizobacteria can enhance crop resistance to insect herbivores and influence higher trophic interactions ...
