In vitro evaluation of azole fungicide sensitivity in Fusarium langsethiae, F. tricinctum, F. poae and F. sporotrichioides populations from Irish oats

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Microtitre plate assays of 286 Irish oat isolates show species‐specific azole sensitivity. In Fusarium langsethiae, mefentrifluconazole and tebuconazole sensitivities correlate, defining four phenotypes and supporting resistance monitoring and integrated control.

Towards an attract‐and‐reward strategy: evaluating nectar resources and HIPVs under laboratory conditions to enhance Aphelinus mali parasitism activity, a key parasitoid of Eriosoma lanigerum

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Euphorbia segetalis is a promising attractant insectary plant for Aphelinus mali. Meanwhile, Vicia faba and Vicia sativa are a promising nectar resource to sustain the parasitoid in early spring when the population of Eriosoma lanigerum is low, and honeydew is scarce.

28 years of vegetation change (1978 – 2006) in a calcareous coastal dune system [PDF]

, 2010
Changes in vegetation structure and composition over a 28 year period (1978–2006) following removal of human-induced disturbances, were examined in a calcareous coastal dune system in Point Nepean National Park (380 19’S, 1440 41’E) in south-eastern ...

Synthetic polymer nanocarrier enhances dsRNA stability but not RNAi efficacy in Brassicogethes aeneus

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Experimental setup for dsRNA feeding in Brassicogethes aeneus to evaluate the effect of a synthetic polymer nanocarrier on RNAi efficiency. The experiment assessed whether the nanocarrier enhances RNAi after oral dsRNA delivery. (a) Stability of dsRNA–nanocarrier complexes was tested in simulated gut conditions. (b) Gene expression of αCOP and dre4 was

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

Challenges facing the management of pesticide resistance in weeds, diseases and insect pests in European agriculture and the future of effective IPM implementation

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Opinion on pesticide resistance and management in the European Union (EU) and United Kingdom (UK) is presented cognisant of changes in regulation that impact on mode of action availability and cropping system choice. Abstract In recent times, pesticide resistance has been managed reasonably effectively, either proactively or reactively, by monitoring ...

Nanoemulsion design of Cynara cardunculus leaves extract rich in sesquiterpene lactones

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a novel formulation strategy that advances the potential of Cynara cardunculus leaf extract enriched in sesquiterpene lactones as a bioherbicide and contributes to the broader development of sustainable weed management tools based on natural products.

Using deep learning to assess the toxicological effects of sublethal exposure of a novel green pesticide in a stored‐product beetle

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study employs an AI‐driven multidisciplinary approach to increase our understanding of the toxicological effects of sublethal concentrations of carlina oxide on Prostephanus truncatus. Sublethal exposure to the carlina oxide induced changes in motor patterns and thigmotaxis, highlighting its potential role in integrated pest management strategies.

Assessment of the effect of modern herbicides on the species composition of weeds in corn crops

Agrarian Scientific Journal
The species composition and the dynamics of the number of dominant weeds of the corn agrocenosis have been established, the main types of contamination have been determined. The results of studies on the effectiveness of herbicides in reducing the number of weeds during the growing season of an agricultural crop are presented.
