Provision of pest alerts is associated with better farm performance in Africa

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Provision of pest alerts on invasive crop pest control in Africa was linked with a higher likelihood of adopting integrated pest management practices, as well as an improvement in crop yield and income. The results suggest that pest alerts are crucial in sustainable pest management strategies against invasive pests. Abstract BACKGROUND Crop pests cause

Predicting the seasonal distribution of fall armyworm in North America using species distribution models

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The species distribution model predicts fall armyworm habitat expands in summer, covering much of the central and eastern USA in July–August, before contracting again in September. Abstract BACKGROUND Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used in pest management to predict outbreak areas.

Whole‐genome sequencing reveals novel ryanodine receptor mutations P4568L and Y4701D conferring high‐level chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome sequencing identified novel ryanodine receptor mutations P4568L and Y4701D causing >1000‐fold chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera litura, enabling development of molecular diagnostics for proactive resistance management. Abstract BACKGROUND Spodoptera litura is a significant insect pest that attacks many agricultural crops ...

Biochemical and metabolic responses of cotton variety XLZ54 to Thrips tabaci and screening of resistance characterization indicators

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Cotton varieties resistant to Thrips tabaci exhibit lower soluble sugar and free amino acid levels, with smaller post‐infestation increases in these nutrients, resulting in reduced feeding rates and lighter damage. Key resistance evaluation indices include: damage severity, soluble sugars, free amino acids, soluble proteins, superoxide dismutase ...
