Larval antibiosis to cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is absent within oilseed rape (Brassica napus)

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10739-10751, November 2026.
We screened a panel of 98 Brassicaceae genotypes (97 Brassica napus and 1 Sinapis alba) for cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) larval antibiosis. We found limited evidence for antibiosis across B. napus but consistent antibiosis in S. alba. Brassicaceae relatives may therefore better inform resistance traits for breeding.

Improved impact from the use of beneficial natural enemy species in Australian canola systems: challenges and required tools

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10540-10550, November 2026.
In canola production systems in Australia, practices for the use of beneficials (arthropod predators and parasitoids) as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy, have not been widely adopted. We outline how canola growers and their advisors can be supported with incremental steps, from passive to active management, to help shift them from ...

Development and survival of Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) on Eucalyptus genotypes

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 671-676, November 2026.
This study provides the first experimental evidence of the biological performance of Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 on Eucalyptus genotypes. Development time was shortest and viability highest on soybean compared with the evaluated Eucalyptus genotypes. B. tabaci MEAM1 completed its development on Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Eucalyptus urophylla × Eucalyptus ...

Methyl Jasmonate and Methyl Salicylate Differentially Modulate Direct and Indirect Defenses in Coffee Plants Against the White Mealybug

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 11, Page 1322-1333, November 2026.
MeJA application strengthened both direct and indirect coffee defenses against the white mealybug Planococcus citri, whereas the effects of MeSA were variable and context‐dependent across the defensive traits examined. The combined application of both elicitors produced an effect similar to MeSA on direct defenses, but resembled MeJA when indirect ...

Modulation of Plant Interactions with Whitefly and Whitefly-Borne Viruses by Salicylic Acid Signaling Pathway: A Review

Whiteflies of the Bemisia tabaci complex, along with the plant viruses they transmit, pose significant challenges to crop production worldwide. Upon infestation or infection, intimate interactions occur between plant hosts and these pests, influencing ...

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 8437-8453, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Among various plant defence strategies, trichomes are tiny hair‐like structures on the epidermis that aid in defence, environmental adaptation and the production of valuable secondary metabolites. This review features trichomes as frontline guards for plant survival, integrating their structural, physiological and metabolic roles in ...

Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of (4R,7R)‐Zingiberene Enables Construction of nor‐Sesquiterpene Semiochemical Analogs

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 19, 14 October 2026.
A five‐enzyme chemoenzymatic synthesis of the insect‐repellent (4R,7R)‐zingiberene from the wild tomato (Solanum habrochaites) has been developed. This approach enabled the elucidation of the sesquiterpene synthase cyclization mechanism of (2Z,6Z)‐farnesyl pyrophosphate and bypasses classic biosynthetic constraints of prenyltransferase chain extension ...

Comparison of Foliar-Applied Insecticides for Whitefly Control in Broccoli

, 1997
Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci also known as B. argentifolii) control in fall planted broccoli is difficult to achieve with foliar-applied insecticides and two treatments were compared and demonstrated a relative reduction of the immature stage of whitefly ...

Effects of selected botanical insecticides on the behaviour and mortality of the glasshouse whitefly Trialeurodes vaporariorum and the parasitoid Encarsia formosa

, 2002
Toxicity and behavioural bioassays were used to assess the lethal and sub-lethal effects of two naphthoquinones from the Chilean plant Calceolaria andina L.
