Green Oil‐in‐Water Nanoemulsions for Delivery of Phytochemicals With Pesticidal Activity for Sustainable Food Production and Safety

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Green oil‐in‐water (O/W) nanoemulsions incorporating essential oils (EOs) and food‐derived compounds are gaining prominence as biopesticidal platforms that address the growing demand for sustainable agriculture, food safety, and reduced chemical inputs.

Toxicological and Physiological Impacts of Some Insecticides on the Cotton Leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) [PDF]

Journal of Plant Protection and Pathology
The cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd.) is a serious pest of cotton and other crops in Egypt. Bioassay was carried out to evaluate the toxicity of some biochemical insecticides (emamectin benzoate, spinosad, and Bacillus thuringiensis)against

Three Closely Related Spodoptera Species Similarly Affect Gene Expression and Phytohormone Levels but Differentially Induce Volatile Emissions in Maize

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 2394-2412, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Plants can perceive specific elicitors in the oral secretions (OS) of herbivorous insects and respond by increasing their defences. Whether plants can discriminate among similar herbivorous insect species and differentially modulate their defence responses against them is largely unknown.

Mate recognition and reproductive isolation in the sibling species Spodoptera littoralis and Spodoptera litura [PDF]

, 2014
Mate recognition is crucial for reproductive isolation and for maintaining species integrity. Chemosensory-mediated sexual communication with pheromones is an essential component of mate recognition in moths.

Engineered Production of Hydroxycinnamoyl Tyramine Conjugates Limits the Growth of the Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae in Arabidopsis

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 2516-2530, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydroxycinnamoyl tyramine conjugates are phenolamides produced by plants in response to pathogen attack and biotic stresses. Their proposed mechanisms of action include cytotoxicity towards pathogens, cell wall reinforcement to restrict pathogen proliferation, and signaling activity to trigger general stress responses.

Molecular bases of insect odorant receptor function: specificity and evolution

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 1036-1049, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a class of chemoreceptors that insects use to detect volatile cues in their environment. In recent years, major advances in the field of structural biology have made it possible to obtain the first structures of insect ORs.

Impact of Cry1AB toxin from transgenic maize (Mon 810) and microbial BT spray (Dipel) on the ecology of a non-target parasitoid, Cotesia marginiventris

, 2008
Cry1Ab toxin derived from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) has been used for the control of susceptible lepidopteran species throughout the world. Currently, sprayable Bt formulations and transgenic plants have been used for lepidopteran pest control.

Maintenance of Gut Microbial Balance via the Kynurenine Pathway Improves Larval Performance and Resistance to Bacillus thuringiensis in Spodoptera exigua

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of kmo in Spodoptera exigua abolished 8‐HQA production, disrupted gut microbial homeostasis, and promoted Enterococcus dominance in gut and oral secretion. Mutants exhibited impaired growth, delayed development, and increased susceptibility to Bacillus thuringiensis, highlighting a conserved role of the kynurenine pathway ...
