Review ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleUnraveling the Mechanisms of Plant Structural Defenses against Insect PestsAroni Preya Biswas, Roksana Al Nafiu Insha, Md. Khairul Mazed et al.Plants employ a variety of physical, chemical, and genetic strategies to defend against herbivore attacks. These biochemical defense mechanisms are complex and dynamic, encompassing both direct and indirect responses. Defense-related chemicals, whether constitutive or induced by herbivore damage, significantly influence herbivore feeding behavior, growth, and survival. Plant defense systems impact herbivore nutrition, development, and survival, highlighting the importance of chemical … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2025 · 5,793 accessesView PDFCite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Entomopathogenic Fungi as Biopesticides to Manage Insect Pest: A ReviewAnthony Emaru, Jane Gesimba Nyaanga, Saidi MwanarusiEntomopathogenic Fungi (EPF) biopesticides are more environmentally friendly and are an alternative to toxic synthetic chemicals. Due to EPF's pathogenic nature to various arthropod pests, it is thus considered a primary candidate for an integrated biological approach due to its numerous invaluable effects. However, an urgent need is to develop an environmentally safer, more sustainable, and practical approach to managing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 12 Jul 2024 · 8,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomatic Diagnosis of Soybean Leaf Disease by Transfer LearningXiao Yu, Qi Gong, Cong Chen, Lina LuSoybean diseases and insect pests are important factors that affect the output and quality of soybeans, thus it is necessary to do correct inspection and diagnosis of them. For this reason, based on improved transfer learning, this study proposed a classification method for soybean leaf diseases. Firstly, leaves were segmented from the whole image after removing the complicated background images. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 29 Jun 2022 · 5,807 accessesView PDFCite
