Treatment of cotton with plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria consortium alters host location and oviposition of Spodoptera exigua

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Two plant‐growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) consortia (AU8 and TX1) induced a deterrence of host plant location and oviposition behavior of Spodoptera exigua females in both susceptible and resistant cotton plants. Most of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased in PGPR‐treated plants compared to untreated plants. # indicates treatments not

Amino acid vectorization of salicylic acid enables efficient activation of NPR1‐dependent defense without phytotoxicity

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Amino acid‐vectorized salicylic acid activates PR1/NPR1‐dependent defenses without phytotoxicity, showing an efficient strategy for controlled delivery and enhanced plant immunity. Abstract BACKGROUND Addressing global food security under rapid population growth and climate change requires sustainable strategies to protect crops from pathogens while ...

RNA interference in crop protection: opportunities and challenges during the transition to commercialization

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
RNA interference (RNAi) technologies, host‐induced gene silencing (HIGS) and spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS), potentially offer sustainable crop protection. However, efficacy, costs, regulatory clarity, and socio‐environmental impacts require further evaluation for broader use.

Effect of nitrogen fertilizer placement on nitrogen uptake and yield of sweet corn (Zea mays L. saccharata) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Plant Science at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]

, 1986
Five placements of nitrogen fertilizer applied to sweet corn (Zea mays L. saccharata) at the four fully expanded leaf stage, that is control (no nitrogen), a band of nitrogen placed on the soil surface near the row, on the soil surface between the rows ...

Fitness costs associated with Vip3Aa resistance on various hosts in Helicoverpa zea

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Significant fitness costs associated with Vip3Aa resistance in H. zea were observed across three non‐Bt hosts. Abundant non‐Bt refuges could help limit the spread of Vip3Aa resistance in H. zea in the field. Abstract BACKGROUND Transgenic crops containing Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) proteins are crucial for managing major agricultural pests such as the

Corn rootworm (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) emergence patterns, survival, and injury in blended refuges and pure stands of short‐stature corn and tall corn

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Graphical Abstract Text: This study compared corn rootworm (Diabrotica spp.) emergence patterns and injury between short‐stature corn and tall corn to help inform corn rootworm management strategies in short‐stature corn Abstract BACKGROUND Short‐stature corn became commercially available in the United States in 2025 and has several desirable qualities

Testing optimal defense theory: Root resistance selection in chicory (Cichorium intybus) reduces foliar defense and alters aphid performance and feeding behavior

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Root‐focused resistance in chicory reduces defenses in leaves, impairing root aphids but enhancing foliar aphid performance. Selecting root resistance can create unintended trade‐offs across plant organs. Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of herbivores at both aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) levels, involving ...

Energy Potential of Zea mays Grown in Cadmium-Contaminated Soil

Energies
Cadmium is a non-essential element for proper plant growth and development and is highly toxic to humans and animals, in part because it inters with calcium-dependent processes in living organisms.
