Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Selected Low-Risk Insecticides and Rainfall Rate on Bemisia tabaci Population and Pepper Yellow Leaf Curl Indonesia Virus Incidence on ChiliAndi Nasruddin, Iftitah Kartika Amaliah, Nurul Arfiani et al.Pepper Yellow Leaf Curl Indonesia Virus (PepYLCIV) is a damaging chili disease in Indonesia. Chili growers depend on synthetic insecticides to control the disease by suppressing its vector population, Bemisia tabaci Genn. This study assessed the efficacy of several low-risk insecticides in suppressing the B. tabaci population and PepYLCIV incidence during the dry and rainy seasons. Treatments consisted of different … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 26 Jan 2024 · 5,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIFENTHRIN CATABOLIZING BACTERIAL STRAIN BACILLUS CIBI FROM SOIL FOR PYRETHROIDS BIODEGRADATIONPreeti Pandey, Geetika Pant, G. SibiPyrethroids are commonly used in most parts of the world and are reported to have potential health risks. Bifenthrin, a third generation pyrethroid used as insecticide has caused potential effect on aquatic life and human health. Bioremediation is a practical approach to reduce pesticide in the environment and reports of microbial degradation of bifenthrin are meagre. This study was aimed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 15 Sep 2014 · 7,576 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioprospection of Endophytic Bacteria Isolated from Mangrove Ecosystems and their Potential Biotechnological ApplicationsAlfian Mubaraq, Mariani Sembiring et al.The unique mangrove ecosystem hosts a variety of microorganism activities, including the crucial role of endophytic bacteria. Microorganisms found in mangrove forests play an important role in maintaining the biosphere by uniting various living beings and can be vital for future biotechnological applications.

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Exposure of Pesticides to Honeybees: A Global Threat to Food SecurityHalima Sadia, Pratik Raj Karki, Mansura Afroz et al.The pivotal role of honeybees as global pollinators underscores their significance in ecological and agricultural systems. However, the beekeeping industry faces a significant challenge due to the improper utilization of pesticides, resulting in adverse effects on honeybee populations. This comprehensive review endeavors to investigate the toxicity of pesticides to honeybees, examining the various routes of exposure. Furthermore, it aims to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 20 Jan 2024 · 6,058 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Evaluation of a Pneumatic Prototype Machine Designed to Control the Colorado Potato Beetle in Potato CropsSaad Almady, Mohamed KhelifiThe Colorado Potato Beetle (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say, 1824, is a major insect pest of potato plants. It can greatly reduce potato yields if left uncontrolled. The most effective method of controlling the CPB is to apply chemical insecticides during its life cycle. However, the CPB tends to develop resistance to chemicals. Therefore, its control is difficult. This has prompted … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 26 Dec 2022 · 6,403 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Protection of Tomato Crops against Tuta absoluta in Open Ground Conditions in the South-East Part of KazakhstanA. Adilkhankyzy, K. A. Alpysbayeva, B. Nurmanov et al.There is a need to develop strategies for the protection of tomato crops that would provide high-quality produce safe for the consumer without environmental pollution. The objective of the study is to deploy an integrated system for the protection of open-field tomato crops from Tuta absoluta using biological agents (Bracon hebetor Say., Trichogramma, biopreparations, pheromone traps) and devices in the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2022 · 5,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Efficacy of Entolek K Planteco® Biopesticide Based on Akanthomyces Lecanii Fungus Against Pest Orthopterans in Soybean Agroecosystems in Southeast KazakhstanIzbasar Temreshev, Askhat Tursynkulov, Yerlan Dutbayev et al.Pest control services dealing with mass pests such as locusts and grasshoppers are forced to use insecticides of various origins to prevent crop damage. In most cases, mainly chemical insecticides are used. This method of regulating pest populations has many negative consequences. As a result of chemical treatments with broad-spectrum insecticides, not only pests are killed, but also non–target organisms,primarily … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 25 Nov 2022 · 5,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNon-Target Inhibition of Antioxidant Enzymes in Honey Bees (A. mellifera and A. florea) Upon Pesticide ExposureAmal Ahmed Berjawi, Syed Salman Ashraf, Mohammad Ali Al-DeebUnderstanding how different insecticides influence bee health is very essential. The aim of this work was to evaluate enzyme kinetics and inhibition by insecticides in Apis mellifera and Apis florea. Tested enzymes showed variable affinity to substrates. In A. florea, glutathione S-transferase (GST) showed significantly higher affinity for its 1-Chloro-2,4-Dinitrobenzene (CDNB) substrate than in A. mellifera. Carbosulfan caused the highest … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2020 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
