Mortality in an invasive ant does not scale linearly with fipronil exposure

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Increasing fipronil concentration did not linearly increase yellow crazy ant mortality when introduced via horizontal transfer; high doses may limit food sharing. Queen mortality was low, and surviving workers were averse to feeding. Abstract Background Controlling eusocial invasive and other pestiferous insects is difficult.

Take flight: predation risk induces wing polyphenism and dispersal in the aphid Myzus persicae

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Predator risk above a critical density induces winged morphs in Myzus persicae, promoting dispersal and reducing predation compared with wingless aphids. This density‐dependent phenotypic plasticity enhances survival but may compromise biological control by facilitating aphid dispersal.

Characterizing geographic diversity of acetolactate synthase resistance in US johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense) biotypes

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Geographical distribution of screened Sorghum halepense biotypes across the USA illustrating variation in nicosulfuron response driven by associated ALS resistance‐allele frequencies among representative biotypes. Abstract BACKGROUND Acetolactate synthase (ALS)‐inhibiting herbicides are widely used for Sorghum halepense weed control across ...

Propagation of internal gravity waves: Optimal vertical discretisation and grid design based on numerical error analysis

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
An energy‐conserving discrete framework for the vertical discretisation of stratified ocean models is developed using internal gravity‐wave theory. A β$$ \beta $$‐indexed family of schemes is analysed through perturbation theory, revealing optimal parameter choices and grid designs that reduce truncation errors significantly.

Beyond Initial Adoption: How Lean Six Sigma Is Sustained, Adapted, and Used in the U.S. Textile and Apparel Industry

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how Lean Six Sigma (LSS) currently functions in the U.S. textile and apparel industry after years of adoption and use. Moving beyond isolated project‐level evidence, this study investigates whether LSS has been implemented as an organizational capability and integrated into the corporate culture, adapted to textile‐specific
