Long‐term effects of management intensity and bioclimatic variables on leatherjacket (Tipula paludosa Meigen) populations at farm scale

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 5, Page 518-527, June 2024.
Abstract Leatherjackets (Tipula spp.) are soil‐dwelling pests associated with agriculture. Land management decisions made at farm scale can have subsequent effects on their populations. Between 1980 and 2020, surveys were conducted across Scotland to collect field histories and larval population data from grassland farms.

On statistical treatment of the results of parallel trails with special reference to fishery research [PDF]

open access: yes, 1945
Parallel trials form a most important part of the technique of scientific experimentation. Such trials may be divided into two; categories. In the first the results are comparable measurements of one kind or another.

Volatile‐mediated oviposition preference for healthy over root‐infested plants by the European corn borer

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 47, Issue 6, Page 2228-2239, June 2024.
Abstract The selection of oviposition sites by female moths is crucial in shaping their progeny performance and survival, and consequently in determining insect fitness. Selecting suitable plants that promote the performance of the progeny is referred to as the Preference−Performance hypothesis (or ‘mother‐knows‐best’). While root infestation generally

Regulierungsmaßnahmen des Drahtwurmbefalls im ökologischen Kartoffelanbau: Ergebnisse einer Status-quo-Analyse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
More and more organic farmers lift potatoes which are damaged by wireworms (Agriotes spec. and Hemicrepidus niger). A nationwide status quo-analysis was carried out by the Chamber of Agriculture of North Rhine-Westphalia in 2002 and 2003.

Severe storm damage and short‐term weather stresses on corn: A review

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 64, Issue 3, Page 1129-1166, May/June 2024.
Abstract Adverse weather conditions from acute events (e.g., storms causing lodging, flooding, or hail) or short‐duration weather patterns (i.e., periods of cold events; extended waterlogged field conditions) can result in yield losses, though management practices may play key roles in aiding with crop recovery or avoidance of these stress events.

Sustainable sweetpotato production in the United States: Current status, challenges, and opportunities

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 116, Issue 2, Page 630-660, March/April 2024.
Abstract Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is an important staple crop cultivated in over 100 countries, and the storage roots and vines provide food for humans and livestock. Sweetpotato consumption and demand for its value‐added products have increased significantly in the last two decades and have led to new cultivar development, expansion in acreage,

Molecular approaches for studying root herbivores [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The use of molecular techniques in insect ecology has expanded rapidly, allowing ever more challenging questions to be addressed. Compared to their aboveground equivalents, root herbivore molecular ecology has received less attention, despite essentially
