Integrating habitat suitability, socioeconomics, and infrastructure to assess global biological invasion risk under climate change: A case study of the rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 9068-9086, September 2026.
We developed an invasion risk index framework that integrates socioeconomic and environmental data using an entropy‐weighting method. The case study highlights the need for region‐specific biosecurity measures for Chilo suppressalis. Abstract BACKGROUND Biological invasion risk is a multifaceted concept that, according to the Food and Agriculture ...

Mapping the global threat of Mythimna separata (Walker) and its economic implications for Brazil's agriculture

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 9097-9106, September 2026.
Global models identified high‐risk areas for Mythimna separata invasion, highlighting major economic vulnerability for Brazilian crops and guiding targeted prevention and management strategies. Abstract BACKGROUND Identifying high‐risk areas for the introduction of invasive alien species is particularly important for agricultural pests with a broad ...

Perceptions, challenges and determinants of management strategy choices for combating fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) infestation in Ghana

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 9107-9118, September 2026.
Despite high awareness of fall armyworm, a significant gap remains in the use of sustainable and effective control measures. Farmers predominantly perceive synthetic pesticides as ideal despite studies highlighting botanical and traditional methods as more sustainable.

Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8053-8063, September 2026.
Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.

Paddies' Puzzle: Multi Criteria Decision Aiding (MCDA) Approach for Enhancing Natural and Agrobiodiversity in Italian Rice Farming Districts in Northern Italy

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rice cultivation systems in north‐western Italy in recent decades have experienced a process of natural biodiversity decline, agro‐biodiversity compression and simplification of cultivation practices, reducing the role of paddies as wetland replacement areas.

Nature‐Based Solutions for Climate‐Smart Agriculture: Current Status and Perspectives

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
This figure conceptualises a framework that integrates nature‐based solution (NbS) and circularity principles into agricultural systems, with life cycle assessment (LCA) as the quantitative backbone complemented by other economic and social assessments.

Natural variation in the atypical resistance gene Ptr confers broad‐spectrum neck blast resistance in rice

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Neck blast (NB), caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, infects rice (Oryza sativa L.) and reduces yield. Knowledge of NB resistance remains limited due to the lack of reliable resistance evaluation methods. Here, we applied a newly established neck injection method and performed a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) on 335 diverse accessions from the

The Potential for Pest Management Using Plant‐Derived Signaling Compounds

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Plant‐derived signaling compounds mediate ecological interactions among plants, herbivores, their natural enemies, and neighboring plants. This graphical summary highlights three approaches to leveraging such ecological interactions for environmentally benign pest management: (1) Recruitment of natural enemies: Using herbivory‐induced plant volatiles ...
