Developing heterospecific sterile insect technique for pest control: insights from the spotted wing fly Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Irradiated Drosophila melanogaster males successfully court and mate with D. suzukii females and significantly reduce numbers of D. suzukii offspring under different species ratios. Abstract BACKGROUND Reproductive interference (i.e. sexual interaction between males of one species and females of another species that reduce the fitness of one or both ...

Dissecting the sterility phenotype in gene edited Drosophila suzukii pgSIT males

open access: yesScientific Reports
Drosophila suzukii is an invasive pest that affects many fresh, soft-skinned fruits such as strawberries and blueberries. To combat this pest, growers use various methods including insecticide sprays, biological control, and sanitation practices. However,

Mechanisms mediating false codling moth, Thaumatotibia leucotreta (lepidoptera: Tortricidae), mating disruption using point‐source pheromone dispensers

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The shift to non‐competitive disruption of Thaumatotibia leucotreta (FCM), resulted in 99% disruption and was achieved at a dosage of 800 dispensers/ha and remained effective with 36 pheromone release sites per ha. Mating disruption is, therefore, highly recommended to form part of the current integrated pest management program for FCM.

Growth inhibition of arable weeds by cerato‐platanin, a plant immune defense activator of fungal origin

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Plants possess an innate immune system able to detect pathogens' molecules such as cerato‐platanin (CP), a protein produced by the fungus Ceratocystis platani. This study shows that the application of this protein elicitor to weeds can be exploited as a novel herbicide mode of action.

The Gold‐Maker of Animal Oil and Prussian Blue Fame — The Chemical and Medicinal Science Philosophy of Johann Conrad Dippel

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
The radical Pietist Johann Conrad Dippel was a self‐proclaimed adept – a maker of gold and the philosophers’ stone. He was also a magister of theology, a doctor of medicine, and a self‐taught chemist, who coinvented the pigment Prussian Blue together with Johann von Diesbach, became known for his animal pyrolysis oil, his wonder‐wound balm, his ...

Chikungunya: an unusual vector-borne disease. Overview and new research trends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Since the huge epidemic of Chikungunya in 2006 in Réunion Island and in India, and since the small outbreak in 2007 in Italy, a few Chikungunya cases were reported in september 2010 in the south-east of France, indicating that even northern and developed

High concentrations of fluorescent nanoprobes delayed Oryzias melastigma embryo hatching by modulating respiratory and metabolic pathways

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
We investigated the developmental toxicity of a new graphene‐based fluorescent nanoprobe for tumor cell nucleus (GTTNs) using Oryzias melastigma embryos. The results confirmed that GTTNs have excellent biocompatibility for biomedical applications. Only the highest dose delayed hatching time.

Screening the Resistance of Male Aedes aegypti and Anopheles coluzzii to Insecticides in the Context of Using Genetic Control Tools in Burkina Faso

open access: yesInsects
Background: Genetic control tools, such as the sterile insect technique (SIT) and genetically modified mosquitoes (GMMs), require releasing males comparable to their wild counterparts.
