Poa annua becomes the first weed to evolve resistance to indaziflam applied preemergence and early‐postemergence

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We report the first confirmed global case of Poa annua evolving resistance to indaziflam applied both preemergence and early‐postemergence. Resistance intensified under cool temperatures, was not reversed by metabolic inhibitors, and was often linked to multiple resistance, underscoring urgent needs for integrated weed management.

Predicting the seasonal distribution of fall armyworm in North America using species distribution models

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The species distribution model predicts fall armyworm habitat expands in summer, covering much of the central and eastern USA in July–August, before contracting again in September. Abstract BACKGROUND Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used in pest management to predict outbreak areas.

Development of an eco‐friendly RNAi yeast attractive targeted sugar bait that silences the shaker gene in spotted‐wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study discusses a promising new attractive targeted sugar bait (ATSB) technology using yeast that expresses shRNA targeting essential genes in the fruit pest spotted‐wing drosophila (SWD). The yeast, which is delivered using soda as a sugar bait, could one day be an effective component in integrated SWD control programs.

Nutritional missed opportunity costs: wild house mice (Mus musculus) consistently consume less preferred food, with implications for control

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Wild house mice consistently consumed a less‐preferred, protein‐rich food despite access to a higher‐energy, preferred option. This suggests that fitness costs from imbalanced diets – nutritional missed opportunity costs – can override preference and energy maximisation, highlighting the potential to improve bait uptake by selecting bait substrates ...

Whole‐genome sequencing reveals novel ryanodine receptor mutations P4568L and Y4701D conferring high‐level chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome sequencing identified novel ryanodine receptor mutations P4568L and Y4701D causing >1000‐fold chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera litura, enabling development of molecular diagnostics for proactive resistance management. Abstract BACKGROUND Spodoptera litura is a significant insect pest that attacks many agricultural crops ...

Wild pigs, wild costs: the economic consequences of wild pig invasions in the United States

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Analysis reveals that wild pigs in the U.S. cause a minimum annual cost of US$3.4 billion, impacting agriculture, property and natural resources, highlighting the need for increased research and policy. Abstract BACKGROUND Wild pigs (Sus scrofa), an invasive species in the United States, cause extensive ecological and economic harm, impacting ...

Weed Invasions: To Control or Not to Control? [PDF]

open access: possibleResearch Papers in Economics, 2004
When a weed invasion is discovered a decision has to be made as to whether to attempt to eradicate it, contain it or do nothing. Ideally, these decisions should be based on a complete benefit-cost analysis, but this is often not possible. A partial analysis, combining knowledge of the rate of spread, seedbank longevity and economic-analysis techniques,

Weeds and weed control

1993
Weeds have been a major problem in sugar beet since the crop was first grown in the late 1700s. At the end of the eighteenth century, Achard (1799) was already stressing the need to control weeds before the crop was sown. He also noted that once sugar beet was clear of competition from early-emerging weeds it would grow vigorously and smother weeds ...
