Insect‐Microbe‐Based Laccase: Untapped Natural Resource for Industrial and Biotechnological Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2025.
The insect‐microbe interplay fulfills a key ecological role involving the degradation of ligninocellulose biomass. This is coordinated by the secretion of different kinds of proteins, of which ligninolytic enzymes, such as laccases (Lacs), are of prime importance.

Generalist predators function as pest specialists: Examining diet composition of spiders and ladybeetles across rice crop stages

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1889-1901, August 2025.
By quantifying the diet composition of GAPs over crop stages, farm types and years, this study reveals that generalist predators have potential to produce a stable, predictable top‐down effect on pests in rice agro‐ecosystems. Therefore, promoting the field densities of ubiquitous generalist predators will likely enhance pest management and support ...

Discovery and biological characterization of a novel mesoionic insecticide fenmezoditiaz

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 5, Page 2535-2552, May 2025.
Acetylcholine binding protein (AChBP) from the sea slug Aplysia californica was modified using site‐directed mutagenesis to create an insect‐like binding site enabling structure‐based compound design. Fenmezoditiaz is a systemic insecticide with a broad spectrum, lack of cross‐resistance and an additional tool for integrated pest management and ...
