"The global field protection (GFP) was developed to protect and optimize pest management resources integrating satellite images for precise field demarcation with physical models of controlled release devices of pesticid...

Abstract Agroecological transitions face a dual imperative: reducing pesticide reliance and minimising soil disturbance for climate mitigation. However, the blanket promotion of no-till practices may hinder ecological in...

Abstract Background Rapid and accurate pest diagnosis is essential for reducing crop losses and improving agricultural productivity. Most existing methods rely on deep learning-based object detection to classify pests in...

To date, control strategies used against insect pest species are based on synthetic insecticide applications. In addition, the efficacy of these treatments could be decreased due to insecticide resistance in insect popul...

In Argentina, 80% of walnut production is carried out by smallholder farms facing poor technology, production constraints, and substantial economic losses due to pests like Cydia pomonella (codling moth). We assessed sus...

Pesticides are specially designed to control pests and help in increasing the yield of crops. This study aims to investigate the genotoxic effect of the major ingredients of commonly used pesticides (Profenophos and Cype...

The primary reason for significant post-harvest losses globally stems from the infestation of insect pests. These beetles, as they progress through their life cycle, lead to the deterioration of stored food, capable of d...

The paper analyses various scientific approaches to the interpretation of the essence of the concept of “personnel management”, defines the specific characteristics and principles of this process. For a detailed stud...

Background More than 700,000 people die due to suicide every year, and ingestion of pesticides has become one of the means to attempt suicide. Nurses are the first health professionals to meet patients who have consumed ...

Brassica oilseeds are important protein crops for Nordic agriculture. Oilseed production is challenged by multiple insect pests, most importantly the pollen beetle (Brassicogethes aeneus). Concerns about pyrethroid resis...

Abstract Many pests and diseases affect agricultural and commercial crops, resulting in potential yield losses. It has been shown that microbial biocontrol agents, such as Bacillus species, are efficient alternatives to ...

Since its first detection in 2009, spotted wing drosophila (SWD) is common in all of Florida’s fruit-producing counties. Surveys indicate that SWD are active year-round in Florida’s warm climate, with peak activity f...

BackgroundEuschistus heros and Piezodorus guildinii are major soybean pests across the Americas. Gut-associated bacteria influence insect nutrition, detoxification, and stress tolerance, potentially enhancing adaptation ...

Background. Obesity arises as a global health issue, increasingly affecting children and adolescents. Excess body weight is associated with multiple metabolic risks and poor quality of life. Lifestyle therapy remains the...

Abstract Introduction Emotional intelligence (EI) is a theoretical construct postulated by Mayer and Salovey to designate the ability to perceive, understand, use and manage emotions. The study of EI in schizophrenia o...

Glyphosate is the most used herbicide in Argentina, accounting for 62% of the commercialized pesticides in the market. It is used as a weed controller in no-till systems, and it is also applied in various genetically mod...

Many plant parasitic and entomopathogenic nematode lineages harbor specialized and obligate bacteria as well as viruses. Given their evolutionary persistence, such cryptic species are considered to play effective roles d...

The role of natural enemy diversity in biological pest control has been debated in many studies, and understanding how interactions amongst predators and parasitoids affect herbivore populations is crucial for pest manag...

Abstract The cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a destructive agricultural pest that causes significant yield losses in various crops. The extensive use of chemical insecticides necessita...

Abstract Background Nanodelivery represents a promising strategy to enhance pesticide efficacy while reducing associated environmental risks. Mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs) can serve as effective nanocarriers but i...

El uso de productos naturales con propiedades bioactivas se está incorporando ampliamente al manejo de plagas en la agricultura como una alternativa sustentable al control químico, que se caracteriza por su impacto neg...

Rachiplusia nu (Guenée) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is an important pest of vegetable crops widely distributed in South America. At present, its control is based on the use of broad spectrum chemical insecticides. In order...
