Peck or pass? Individual‐level testing of a bird‐repellent seed coating

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Using sequential unique‐choice tests on an urban population of ringed carrion crows, we show that black pepper oleoresin‐treated maize seeds were avoided, while color alone had no deterrent effect. Abstract Background Carrion crows (Corvus corone) are a major depredating species of spring crops across European agroecosystems, especially during sowing ...

Comparative efficacy of seed biopriming and soil drenching with Bacillus altitudinis TM22 and Bacillus atrophaeus MCM61 on the suppression of Fusarium wilt of cotton

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Co‐application of Bacillus strains TM22 and MCM61 suppressed Fusarium wilt of cotton. Seed biopriming with Bacillus strains performed better than soil drenching. TM22 + MCM61 improved vegetative and physiological aspects in cotton plants. TM22 + MCM61 enhanced the activity of defense enzymes and defense gene expression.

Environmental DNA‐based RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a assay for on‐site detection of chironomid larvae in aquatic environments

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
An environmental DNA (eDNA)‐based recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA)‐CRISPR/Cas12a assay enables rapid, specific, and on‐site detection of chironomids, supporting early warning, and ecological monitoring in freshwater environments. Abstract BACKGROUND Freshwater chironomid midges pose a significant threat to drinking water quality and ...
