Identification of an Argentinean isolate of Spodoptera frugiperda granulovirus
Revista Argentina de Microbiología, 2019 The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is an important maize pest. Due to the environmental impact and emergence of resistance caused by chemical pesticides and transgenic events, the use of baculoviruses becomes a safe and useful alternative for its control in integrated pest management strategies.

Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications
Insect Science, EarlyView.The connections between biotic and abiotic stress affecting mass‐reared dipteran insects and the associated stress and immunological responses. Numbers indicate the order in which the topics are discussed in this review. Abstract Stress may be viewed as the disturbance of homeostasis of an organism.

Potential of alternative control of leaf‐cutting ants using essential oils: A systematic review
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Abstract Leaf‐cutting ants (LCAs) are abundant and cause considerable damage to agricultural and forest crops in the Neotropical region and are commonly controlled using sulfluramid‐based ant baits. However, this active ingredient is a precursor of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS), a persistent, human‐made pollutant that poses serious environmental

Climate‐specific dynamics of fall armyworm on maize: Implications for pest monitoring and management
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.FAW moth captures were higher in the Sudanese zone than the Guinean zone, peaking during the major rainy season, while the Guinean zone had more captures in the dry season. In the Guinean zone, plant damage correlated with adult moth captures and larval densities, whereas no such correlation was found in the Sudanese zone or at different maize growth ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Variants at position R196 in cytoskeletal β‐actin are the most common variants associated with Baraitser–Winter cerebrofrontofacial syndrome and result in craniofacial anomalies and neurodevelopmental disorders, most likely due to neuronal migration defects. This study explores the molecular mechanisms of p.R196 variants using purified proteins.

The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach
Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce
