Evaluating Syrphid Fly Predation on Aphids Under Controlled and Field Conditions in High Tunnels: A Comparative Study With Lacewings

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological control in high tunnel systems can be optimised by matching predator species to seasonal environmental conditions. We evaluated the predatory efficacy of syrphid flies (Toxomerus marginatus (Say), Eupeodes americanus (Fabricius)) and lacewings (Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens), Chrysoperla rufilabris (Burmeister)) across laboratory ...

Lethal Effects of the Wild Potato Solanum bulbocastanum on the Planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus, a Vector of Bacterial Pathogens in Potato

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus [Hemiptera: Cixiidae] is a vector of the two plant pathogenic bacteria ‘Candidatus Arsenophonus phytopathogenicus’ and ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’ causing ‘bacterial potato tuber wilt’ in potato.

Insectary Plant Species Preferences of Predators and Parasitoid Families in a Mediterranean Horticultural Agroecosystem

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of insectary plants to provide alternative food and shelter resources for enhancing natural enemy activity has been established as a common practice in IPM. Candidate flowering plant species have been screened and evaluated for their contribution to enhance life parameters of beneficial insects.

A Joint Pest Management Model for the Bean Fly Complex, Ophiomyia spencerella and Ophiomyia phaseoli (Diptera: Agromyzidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The common bean is an important crop in Eastern Africa for smallholder farmers, yet yields are often reduced due to pests, particularly Ophiomyia spencerella and Ophiomyia phaseoli. These species are partially sympatric and commonly known as the bean fly. Here, based on the similarity of their life history and developmental biology, field data

The transcription factors TaABI4 and TaNAC‐A1 fine‐tune TaCYP94‐A1 transcription to modulate seed dormancy in wheat

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A module involving the transcription factors TaABI4 and TaNAC‐A1, and the cytochrome P450 TaCYP94‐A1 precisely regulates seed dormancy levels through plant hormone crosstalk, providing targets for improving resistance to pre‐harvest sprouting in wheat.

Tandemly duplicated TaERF109 genes confer drought tolerance and post‐drought recovery in wheat

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Tandemly duplicated TaERF109 transcription factor genes in wheat modulate growth traits and enhance drought tolerance by regulating the TaMADS56 transcription facto gene, cytokinin biosynthesis‐related genes, and nicotianamine synthase genes, revealing the critical role of tandemly duplicated genes in the coordination of stress responses and ...

De novo stolon organogenesis in potato leaf callus elicited by Agrobacterium tumefaciens stimulus

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens triggers stolon regeneration from potato leaf callus independent of T‐DNA insertion, suggesting a strategy to reprogram callus identity and expand the potential of tissue regeneration. ABSTRACT Plant cells can undergo cellular reprogramming, enabling pluripotent callus formation from excised leaves.

Constitution and function of intergenic genome regions in cultivated versus annual wild soybean in China

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Three‐case restricted two‐stage multi‐locus multi‐allele genome‐wide association study identified main‐effect genes and detected the regulatory effects of intergenic loci on genes, enabling comprehensive dissection of the genic‐intergenic genetic system for quantitative traits and providing a strategy for studying their genetic basis.

Pangenome analysis reveals the genetic mechanism underlying high‐altitude adaptation in Qinghai–Xizang (Tibet) Plateau Rhododendron

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Pan‐genome analysis reveals that high‐altitude Rhododendron species resist alpine cold stress by rapidly sensing and engaging the chilling response pathway and genes that directly and indirectly protect the plant from UV radiation. Heritable genomic features such as long terminal repeats contribute to the adaptive diversification of Rhododendron ...

How Violence Shapes Place: The Rise of Neo‐Authoritarianism in the Global Value Chain and the Emergence of an ‘Infernal Place’ in the Bangladesh Garment Industry

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how and to what extent violence has become a pivotal tool for conducting business in places integrated into the global value chain. It also explores the roles stakeholders play in silencing workers' resistance within these places.
