Biocontrol potential of naturally occurring entomopathogens against Maladera formosae in corn–soybean rotated systems

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 4894-4903, August 2025.
We isolated three insect‐killing nematodes from Maladera formosae infested corn–soybean rotated fields, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Pristionchus sp., and Steinernema carpocapsae. Results from greenhouse and field microcosm studies indicate all three nematodes can infect and kill M. formosae grubs and persist through winter.

Polyhalite as an alternative potassium fertilizer for sweetpotatoes

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Abstract Polyhalite is a mineral that contains a significant source of potassium (K). Muriate of potash (MOP) is a widely used, well‐characterized, and available source of K fertilizer. This study evaluated polyhalite as a source of K fertilizer compared to the more commonly used MOP by measuring yields, nutrient uptake, and soil K in Covington ...

Tipula Larval Populations Affected by Soil Edaphic and Microbiological Properties: Insights From Ireland and Scotland

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 76, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
ABSTRACT Herbivorous soil‐dwelling pests cause damage in agriculture through decreases in root and shoot biomass, which can affect both plant and economic yield. Having a greater understanding of the soil environment of these pests could identify potential avenues for mitigation/control strategies. Leatherjackets (Tipula larvae) are pests of grasslands
