Fitness costs associated with Vip3Aa resistance on various hosts in Helicoverpa zea

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Significant fitness costs associated with Vip3Aa resistance in H. zea were observed across three non‐Bt hosts. Abundant non‐Bt refuges could help limit the spread of Vip3Aa resistance in H. zea in the field. Abstract BACKGROUND Transgenic crops containing Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) proteins are crucial for managing major agricultural pests such as the

Analysis of glutamine synthetase target‐site mutations and their role in endowing glufosinate‐ammonium resistance

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
GS2.2 G255D mutation conferred enzyme‐level glufosinate insensitivity but no whole‐plant resistance, showing trade‐offs between catalytic function and herbicide binding and providing a baseline for future studies on target‐site glufosinate resistance.

Corn rootworm (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) emergence patterns, survival, and injury in blended refuges and pure stands of short‐stature corn and tall corn

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Graphical Abstract Text: This study compared corn rootworm (Diabrotica spp.) emergence patterns and injury between short‐stature corn and tall corn to help inform corn rootworm management strategies in short‐stature corn Abstract BACKGROUND Short‐stature corn became commercially available in the United States in 2025 and has several desirable qualities

Distribution and frequency of Vkorc1 polymorphisms in house mice and Norway rats in the northeastern United States

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study assesses the distribution and frequency of Vkorc1 polymorphisms in house mice and Norway rats in northeastern USA. House mice showed higher frequency of Vkorc1 mutations than Norway rats. The A32V and Y139F mutations are first reported in mice, and the L128V is newly reported in Norway rats.

Chitosan‐protected dsRNA increases efficacy against Helicoverpa armigera without compromising biosafety for pollinators

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Chitosan/tripolyphosphate/double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) nanoparticles enhance RNA interference efficacy of orally delivered dsRNA against Helicoverpa armigera. Nanoparticles reduce the LC50 and do not cause deleterious effects or toxicity on beneficial insects.

Leaf penetration by endophytic Metarhizium brunneum enables infection of Phthorimaea absoluta in tomato mines while inducing the crop defense system

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Spraying Metarhizium brunneum on tomato plants controls heterogeneous and upcoming Phthorimaea absoluta populations by infecting larvae within mines and priming plant induced systemic defences. Abstract BACKGROUND The endophytic entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium brunneum Petch EAMa 01/58‐Su shows strong potential for managing Phthorimaea absoluta, a ...

HvarAKR1B1‐mediated tolerance in Hippodamia variegata: Deciphering the metabolic adaptation and fitness costs under prolonged starvation

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Starvation stress significantly affected the growth and development of Hippodamia variegata. Combined transcriptome and metabolome analysis and RNA interference verification revealed that HvarAKR1B1 may be involved in the response of Hippodamia variegata to starvation stress.

Testing optimal defense theory: Root resistance selection in chicory (Cichorium intybus) reduces foliar defense and alters aphid performance and feeding behavior

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Root‐focused resistance in chicory reduces defenses in leaves, impairing root aphids but enhancing foliar aphid performance. Selecting root resistance can create unintended trade‐offs across plant organs. Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of herbivores at both aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) levels, involving ...
