Sugarcane giant borer transcriptome analysis and identification of genes related to digestion.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Sugarcane is a widely cultivated plant that serves primarily as a source of sugar and ethanol. Its annual yield can be significantly reduced by the action of several insect pests including the sugarcane giant borer (Telchin licus licus), a lepidopteran ...

Automatic Moth Detection from Trap Images for Pest Management [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Monitoring the number of insect pests is a crucial component in pheromone-based pest management systems. In this paper, we propose an automatic detection pipeline based on deep learning for identifying and counting pests in images taken inside field traps.

Mobile robots sampling algorithms for monitoring of insects populations in agricultural fields [PDF]
Vol. 22, No. 3, September 2023 of the IJSIMM journal, 2023 Plant diseases are major causes of production losses and may have a significant impact on the agricultural sector. Detecting pests as early as possible can help increase crop yields and production efficiency. Several robotic monitoring systems have been developed allowing to collect data and provide a greater understanding of environmental processes ...

A history of mole crickets (Orthoptera: Gryllotalpidae) in Puerto Rico [PDF]
, 2009 Published claims in 1887-1903 that the mole cricket Neocurtilla hexadactyla (Perty) occurs in Puerto Rico all seem to be derived from a misidentification made by Agustín Stahl, a medical practitioner and collector of natural history objects, published in

Recognition of Pyralidae Insects Using Intelligent Monitoring Autonomous Robot Vehicle in Natural Farm Scene [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 The Pyralidae pests, such as corn borer and rice leaf roller, are main pests in economic crops. The timely detection and identification of Pyralidae pests is a critical task for agriculturists and farmers. However, the traditional identification of pests by humans is labor intensive and inefficient.

Analyzing Insect-Plant Predation Data By Bayesian Nonparametrics [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 In the prospect of ecology and biology, studying insect-plant predation will considerably contribute to pest control, benefit agriculture and afforestation, and also help people to better understand insect-plant co-evolution. Therefore, we are motivated to do two work in this study.

Improving Pest Monitoring Networks in order to reduce pesticide use in agriculture [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Disease and pest control largely rely on pesticides use and progress still remains to be made towards more sustainable practices. Pest Monitoring Networks (PMNs) can provide useful information for improving crop protection by restricting pesticide use to the situations that best require it.
