DOI: 10.1002/arch.22002
Abstract: Outbreaks of Lymantria dispar asiatica (the Asian spongy moth; Lepidoptera: Erebidae) occur sporadically, causing widespread damage to forest and fruit trees. Owing to the development of pesticide resistance and environmental contamination, biopesticides, including L. dispar multiple… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/etc.5233
Abstract: Amphibian populations are decreasing world-wide, and pollution is a contributing factor. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a class of persistent organic pollutants known to exert immunotoxicity. To assess impacts of PCBs on frogs, we exposed Lithobates… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ps.4810
Abstract: BACKGROUND The Asian long-horned beetle [ALB; Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky)] is an invasive, wood-boring insect posing significant economic and ecological threats to the deciduous forests of North America. An efficacious and environmentally acceptable chemical control technique… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s004420100641
Abstract: Previous studies have examined abiotic and biotic factors that facilitate agonistic behavior. For larval amphibians, food availability and conspecific density have been suggested as important factors influencing intraspecific aggression and cannibalism. In this study, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-017-1369-5
Abstract: Invasive fish have a high disruptive potential in aquatic ecosystems, in which amphibians may be highly impacted due to intense competition and/or predation on their eggs and larvae. Most studies have focused on the effect… read more here.

Coagulation-flocculation: a potential application for mosquito Larval Source Management (LSM).
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Acta tropica"
DOI: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2020.105748
Abstract: Larval mosquitoes have a more limited home range and lower resistance to adverse environment than adults, thus can be ideal targets for vector control in some cases. Coagulation-flocculation technology, which could be used for water… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.aquaculture.2020.735049
Abstract: Abstract Because the post-larval (leptocephalus) survival rates of batches of Japanese eels vary widely, a useful indicator is needed to identify good-quality larval batches before the time of first feeding. This study therefore evaluated the… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Eleven monoterpenes, phenylpropenes and sesquiterpenes were evaluated for their insecticidal and growth inhibitory activities against the second and fourth larval instars of Spodoptera littoralis. Among the tested compounds, 1,8-cineole revealed the highest fumigant toxicity… read more here.
