This not only leads to increased resistance of pests and diseases but also adversely affects the ecological environment and fruit safety. Although biological control has gradually received attention, the current research on how to systematically use microbial diversity to achieve efficient control and prevention is still … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2026 · 1,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsManufacturing of Granular Matrix with Diatomacious earth, Lime and Sugarcane Bagasse ash to Encapsulate Entomopathogenic Nematodes (Steinernema glaseri)L.V. Bustamante-Espinosa, A. Castañeda-Ovando, J. Hernández-Ávila et al.An alternative for pest control in corn production is the use of biopesticides formulated with entomopathogenic nematodes encapsulated in granular matrices. However, it has been observed that the granular matrices´ lack of resistance to handling and transport causes their deterioration, therefore limiting their use. This study analyzes the use of lime and sugarcane bagasse ash as stabilizer additives in granular … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2020 · 7,736 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiological Control of Spodoptera frugiperda Eggs Using Telenomus remus Nixon in Maize-Bean-Squash PolycultureAntonio GutiA©rrez-MartAnez, Alfredo Tolon-Becerra, Xavier B. Lastra-BravoThe maize earworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is an important pest in maize. Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) is an important control agent of this pest due to its capacity to invade the whole egg mass. The percentage of parasitism by Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) on Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) eggs was evaluated in maize-bean, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 17 Jul 2012 · 10,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Reliable Identification System for Red Palm WeevilSaleh Mufleh Al-SaqerProblem statement: Red Palm Weevil (RPW) is a widely found pest among palm trees and is known to cause significant losses every year to palm growers. Existing identification techniques for RPW comprise of using traps with pheromones to detect these pests. However, these traditional methods are labor-intensive, expensive to implement and unreliable for early detection of RPW infestation. Early detection … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 18 Jun 2012 · 7,020 accessesView PDFCite
