Characterization of WAC interactions with R2TP and TTT chaperone complexes linking glucose and glutamine availability to mTORC1 activity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 11, Page 1771-1788, November 2025.
TTT and R2TP chaperone complexes are required for the assembly and activation of mTORC1. WAC directly interacts with components of TTT, R2TP, and mTORC1, and these interactions are affected by the availability of glucose and glutamine, correlating with changes in mTORC1 activity.

Evolutionary Changes of GT1 Provide Insights Into the Adaptation of Butterflies to Plant Feeding

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
We investigated the evolution of glycosyltransferase 1 (GT1) genes in 69 butterfly species to explore their association with host plant adaptation. Our results reveal frequent tandem duplications and adaptive selection in GT1s, especially in UGT33 and UGT40 subfamilies, alongside expression patterns suggesting functional diversification.

Muffled olfactory and sensory cues from the reproductive stage soybean selectively reduce oviposition of a major polyphagous herbivore, fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 11, Page 7403-7413, November 2025.
Fall armyworm (FAW) preferred ovipositing on vegetative‐stage soybeans. While ‘mother knows best’ may not apply in soybean‐FAW system, muffled cues in the reproductive stage could positively influence host success. Abstract BACKGROUND While the mother knows best/preference performance hypothesis has been well tested in natural ecosystems, how these ...

Silicon fertilization in maize increases attractiveness of nocturnal herbivore‐induced plant volatiles to Spodoptera frugiperda natural enemies

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 11, Page 7423-7431, November 2025.
Silicon (Si) fertilization enhances the attractiveness of plant volatiles emitted by fall armyworm‐infested maize plant to the predatory earwig Doru luteipes by triggering the emission of the terpene neryl acetate. Abstract BACKGROUND Silicon (Si) fertilization has been well‐documented to enhance plant resistance against insect pests by increasing the ...

Indirect plant defense may provide economically important pest suppression in sorghum

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 11, Page 7478-7488, November 2025.
Laboratory measures of sorghum direct and indirect plant resistance traits aligned with natural enemy recruitment and pest suppression in the field. Abstract BACKGROUND A promising strategy to optimize biological control of insect pests is selecting crop varieties with indirect defense traits.

Potential of alternative control of leaf‐cutting ants using essential oils: A systematic review

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 497-511, November 2025.
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

The use of baculovirus Spodoptera SfMNPV alone and combined with herbicides and adjuvant to control Spodoptera frugiperda (Smith, 1797) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

open access: yesBiological Control
Four independent experiments were carried out to evaluate the use of Spodoptera frugiperda multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (SfMNPV) alone and mixed in different combinations with herbicides (atrazine and tembotrione) and adjuvant (soybean oil) to control ...
