Synergistic effects of pollen grains on several vital life parameters of Amblyseius swirskii when preying upon Tetranychus urticae

open access: yesScientific Reports
In this study, the efficiency of two pollens, Bird-of-paradise and Damask rose, was evaluated concerning the life table of the phyto-carnivorous predator Amblyseius swirskii, both alone and in combination with the spider mite Tetranychus urticae as a ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Drought and Herbivory Drive Physiological and Phytohormonal Changes in Soybean (Glycine max Merril): Insights From a Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With climate change, abiotic and biotic stresses such as drought and herbivory are predicted to further diminish agricultural productivity. Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill), a crop of global economic importance, is vulnerable to both. However, the interactive effects of drought and herbivory on soybeans haven't been explored, especially ...

Trade‐offs in thermal response: Schizotetranychus brevisetosus winter eggs outperform summer eggs at low temperatures

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, EarlyView.
We investigated maternal effects in Schizotetranychus brevisetosus (Tetranychidae), where females oviposit summer and winter eggs in response to photoperiod on evergreen hosts. Developmental rates of immature individuals increased linearly from 15°C to 35°C, but winter and summer eggs developed faster at low and high temperatures, respectively ...

Beyond Focal Pests: Impact of a Neonicotinoid Seed Treatment and Resistant Soybean Lines on a Non-Target Arthropod

open access: yesInsects, 2016
Integrated pest management (IPM) tactics may effectively control focal pests, but it is also important to test the compatibility of different tactics, and consider non-target organisms.

Monitoring the Acaricide Resistance Status and Baseline Susceptibility of Field‐Collected Populations of Tetranychus urticae Koch in Korea

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 121, Issue 4, April 2026.
A nationwide survey of Tetranychus urticae from Korean strawberry greenhouses revealed strong regional variation in acaricide susceptibility. Localized resistance to abamectin, chlorfenapyr, and acequinocyl highlights the need for region‐specific, MoA‐based resistance management strategies. ABSTRACT The two‐spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch,
