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 · 7,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolluscicidal Activity of Ethanolic Dieffenbachia seguine (Dumb Cane) Leaf Extract Against Pomacea canaliculata (Golden Apple Snail)Alfredo V. Corpuz, Carmela M. Florentino, Ace Danielle C. Avero, Sherwin V. AlvaroThe golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata), an invasive species that originated in South America, has caused significant damage to rice plantations in Southeast Asia, notably the Philippines. Because of its voracious appetite for aquatic vegetation and quick reproduction rate, it poses a significant agricultural problem. Conventional control approaches, which mostly use chemical molluscicides, have increased environmental issues and threats to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Diversity as a Biological Control Mechanism for Fruit Tree Diseases: A Comparative ApproachZhichao TangThe traditional methods of fruit tree pest control have long relied on chemical pesticides. 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 · 1,603 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBotanic Products as a Sustainable Alternative in the Control of Rice and Grape Pests in South AmericaRicardo Diego Duarte Galhardo de Albuquerque, Frank Romel Leon-Vargas, Carmen Cerdeña del Aguila et al.Pests present a major threat to agricultural crops, leading to diminished yields, economic losses, and potential food insecurity. In South America, rice and grape cultivation have become increasingly significant due to their economic value, contribution to food security, and role in exports. However, these crops are vulnerable to pests such as Oebalus poecilus, Hydrellia wirthi, and Pseudococcus viburni. The reliance … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 19 Feb 2025 · 5,298 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnraveling 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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcofriendly Management of Two Spotted Spider Mites on Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum (Mill.) in Eastern EthiopiaBelachew DabaloOne of the most widely grown vegetable crops in Ethiopia is the tomato (Solanum lycopersicon). Two Spotted Spider Mites (TSSM) are the primary pests that pose a threat to tomato production in Eastern Ethiopia. Synthetic pesticides remain the primary method of controlling TSSM, but because of the pest's high fecundity, inbreeding, arrhenotokous reproduction, high mutation rate, and short life cycle, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 12 Oct 2024 · 6,341 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Natural Enemies to Control Greenhouse PestsSamia Juma AL-NaabiBiological pest control, often known as biological pest control or biocontrol, is a sustainable and ecologically friendly method of pest management in agriculture. It entails using living organisms including predators, parasitoids and diseases to control pest populations and reduce agricultural loss. In this research study, the researcher used certain natural enemies (ladybirds, lacewings and trichogramma evanescens) to test their effects … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 4 Aug 2024 · 5,194 accessesView PDFCite
