CHARACTERISTICS Baculoviruses are natural pathogens of insects, mainly lepidopteran species. Baculoviruses consist of one or sev - ✔ Highly effective eral virions, which contain the viral DNA. These virions are ✔ Residue - free encapsulated in a protein occlusion body, which protects ✔ the virus from destructive influences in the environment. Safe Granuloviruses are rod - shaped and normally contain a ✔ Selective single virion. Nucleopolyhedroviruses are bigger and con - tain mostly several virions. Baculoviruses are safe Baculoviruses only occur in arthropod species and gener- ally have a narrow host range. Beneficial insects such as bees, bumble bees, predatory mites, and parasitoids are not harmed. Aquatic species, birds, mammals and humans are not affected. Baculoviruses do not produce toxins or secondary compounds. How do baculoviruses work? Baculoviruses must be ingested by the insect larvae. The protein capsules get dissolved and release the virions, which infect the insects midgut cells. After infecting the midgut cells, other host cells get infected. A few days later, the larvae are killed, and millions of new viruses are released into the environment. ingestion of occluded viruses by the larvae death of the larvae and releasing of occluded viruses to the environment dissolving of protein capsule in the midgut, releasing of virions virions infect the larvae forming of new through the midgut cells occluded viruses virus replication inside the host and infection of new host cells 7 Our baculovirus products We offer a broad range of plant protection CHARACTERISTICS pro ducts based on baculoviruses against a range of pest insects. ✔ Compatible ✔ Stable The use of baculoviruses against insect pests offers ✔ • highly effective control Ready - to - use • an innovative control method • cost - effective control • residue - free production • safe application for the user and the environment Andermatt Biocontrol baculoviruses can easily be com - Our baculovirus products are approved and listed for the bined with other plant protection products.

Fungal entomopathogens provide an attractive alternative to synthetic insecticides for weevil control because they pose a lesser risk to human health and the environment. This review summarises the available data on the performance of these entomopathogens when used against weevils in horticultural crops. We integrate these data with information on weevil biology, grouping species based on how their developmental stages utilise habitats in or on their hostplants, or in the soil.

  • A Review of Sampling and Monitoring Methods for Beneficial Arthropods
    insects Review A Review of Sampling and Monitoring Methods for Beneficial Arthropods in Agroecosystems Kenneth W. McCravy Department of Biological Sciences, Western Illinois University, 1 University Circle, Macomb, IL 61455, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-309-298-2160 Received: 12 September 2018; Accepted: 19 November 2018; Published: 23 November 2018 Abstract: Beneficial arthropods provide many important ecosystem services. In agroecosystems, pollination and control of crop pests provide benefits worth billions of dollars annually. Effective sampling and monitoring of these beneficial arthropods is essential for ensuring their short- and long-term viability and effectiveness. There are numerous methods available for sampling beneficial arthropods in a variety of habitats, and these methods can vary in efficiency and effectiveness. In this paper I review active and passive sampling methods for non-Apis bees and arthropod natural enemies of agricultural pests, including methods for sampling flying insects, arthropods on vegetation and in soil and litter environments, and estimation of predation and parasitism rates. Sample sizes, lethal sampling, and the potential usefulness of bycatch are also discussed. Keywords: sampling methodology; bee monitoring; beneficial arthropods; natural enemy monitoring; vane traps; Malaise traps; bowl traps; pitfall traps; insect netting; epigeic arthropod sampling 1. Introduction To sustainably use the Earth’s resources for our benefit, it is essential that we understand the ecology of human-altered systems and the organisms that inhabit them. Agroecosystems include agricultural activities plus living and nonliving components that interact with these activities in a variety of ways. Beneficial arthropods, such as pollinators of crops and natural enemies of arthropod pests and weeds, play important roles in the economic and ecological success of agroecosystems.

Shared senior authors and corresponding authors. y Received: 13 November 2019; Accepted: 10 December 2019; Published: 15 December 2019 Abstract: Sustainable pest control requires a systems approach, based on a thorough ecological understanding of an agro-ecosystem. Such fundamental understanding provides a basis for developing strategies to manipulate the pest’s behaviour, distribution, and population dynamics, to be employed for crop protection. This review focuses on the fundamental knowledge required for the development of an effective push-pull approach. Push-pull is a strategy to repel a pest from a crop, while attracting it toward an external location. It often relies on infochemicals (e.g., pheromones or allelochemicals) that are relevant in the ecology of the pest insect and can be exploited as lure or repellent. Importantly, responsiveness of insects to infochemicals is dependent on both the insect’s internal physiological state and external environmental conditions. This context-dependency reflects the integration of cues from different sensory modalities, the effect of mating and/or feeding status, as well as diurnal or seasonal rhythms. Furthermore, when the costs of responding to an infochemical outweigh the benefits, resistance can rapidly evolve.

By the time you receive this the recording season should be under way and hopefully those cold and miserable winter days will be but a mere memory. Also underway will be the Invertebrate challenge programme of training days, a three year project funded by The Heritage Lottery Fund and The Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, which will be running around 100 events in total concentrating on the identification of some of Shropshire’s most under-recorded and under-studied invertebrates. It will also enable Shropshire Entomology to continue for the next three years, as well as enable my involvement with the SEDN as manager of the invertebrate database. Many thanks once more to everyone who has contributed to this edition. It can only function as a ‘newsletter’ if people contribute articles of news and views, so please do consider submitting articles that relate to entomology in Shropshire or entomology in general. The deadline for submission of content for Vol. 4 is Friday 16th September 2011. Please feel free to pass this newsletter on to anyone you feel might be interested in it.

Endophytes have shown the potential for the biological control of diseases. The colonization ability of native endophyte strains of Beauveria bassiana and their antifungal effect against B. cinerea were evaluated in Solanaceae crops. Root drenching with B. bassiana was applied, and endophytic colonization capacity in roots, stems, and leaves was determined. The antagonistic activity was evaluated using in vitro dual culture and also plants by drenching the endophyte on the root and by pathogen inoculation in the leaves. Ten native strains were endophytes of tomato, and eight were endophytes of chili pepper. All strains showed significant in vitro antagonism against B. cinerea (30–36%). A high antifungal effect was observed, and strains RGM547 and RGM644 showed the lowest percentage of the surface affected by the pathogen.
