Exploring the effectiveness of methyl salicylate and attractive traps in dispersing and recapturing glasshouse whiteflies: advances in push–pull strategy

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Methyl salicylate causes dispersal of whiteflies from tomato plants (push), and enhances the catching efficacy of an attractive green‐light‐emitting diode (LED)‐enhanced yellow sticky trap (pull), showing potential for a novel push–pull system. Abstract BACKGROUND Methyl salicylate (MeSa), a plant defense elicitor and whitefly deterrent, has been shown

Down-regulation of a pectin acetylesterase gene modifies strawberry fruit cell wall pectin stracture and increases fruit firmness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Antisense-mediated down-regulation of several fruit-specific genes has previously demonstrated how the cell wall disassembly in strawberry fruit is mediated by a series of enzymes that act sequentially (Posé et al. 2011).

Single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas assays for point‐of‐need detection of Stewart's wilt pathogen (Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii) of corn and Maize dwarf mosaic virus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1988-1999, April 2025.
Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Ecofriendly control of Drosophila suzukii via the photoinsecticide chlorophyllin

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Drosophila suzukii can be killed by feeding with sodium‐magnesium‐chlorophyllin and photoactivation with sunlight or LEDs. Chlorophyllin supplementation does not result in food aversion. The moribundity increases with the light‐ and chlorophyllin dose as well as time.

Influence of bait and habitat on site visitation by wild pigs (Sus scrofa)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Bait, a food item, is important for attracting wild pigs to a site for management and considering habitat, including distance to water and understory, increases likelihood of wild pig visitation. Abstract BACKGROUND Wild pigs (Sus scrofa), known for their impacts on ecosystems in both their native and invasive ranges, are commonly managed using lethal ...

Induced allopatry as main mechanism explaining trap catch reduction in low dose mating disruption trials on the strawberry pest Acleris comariana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study evaluated pheromone‐based mating disruption of the strawberry pest Acleris comariana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). In treated crop areas males were more attracted to the dispensers than to the trap lures and aggregated near such dispensers, explaining the low catches in traps in these areas as an effect of competitive disruption via induced ...
