Integrated pest management of Tuta absoluta : practical implementations across different world regions
...
The South American tomato pinworm, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), has invaded most Afro-Eurasian countries and is threatening worldwide tomato production. Various strategies have been developed and implemented to manage this pest. Here, we present a timely review on the up-to-date development and practical implementation of int...
Sequential post-heading applications for controlling wheat blast: a nine-tear summary of fungicide performance in Brazil...
...
Wheat blast, caused by Pyricularia oryzae Triticum (PoT) lineage, is a major constraint to wheat production, mainly in the tropics of Brazil where severe epidemics have been more frequent. We analyzed disease and wheat yield data from uniform field trials conducted during nine years (2012 to 2020) in order to assess whether the percent control and ...

Selectivity and efficiency of herbicides in cassava on the floodplain of the Solimões river.
Cassava is grown on the floodplains of the Solimões river and guarantees food security and income for farmers. However, negative interference of weeds can result in a significant yield loss in the crop. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the selectivity of herbicides and efficiency of chemical weed control in the cassava 'Aipim-mantei...
Eficácia anti-helmíntica do disofenol em ovinos infectados experimentalmente com isolado resistente de Haemonchus contor...
A resistência anti-helmíntica é, atualmente, o maior entrave ao controle efetivo da infecção por Haemonchus contortus, é o principal causador de perdas econômicas aos produtores de caprinos e ovinos nos trópicos. O disofenol é uma droga anti-helmíntica com mecanismo de ação inibidor da atividade mitocondrial, bloqueando a produção de ATP ocasionand...
Field evaluation of seven products to control cyanobacterial blooms in aquaculture.
Published in Environmental science and pollution research international
Harmful algal blooms negatively impact water quality in hypereutrophic systems that are common in aquaculture. However, few algaecides are approved for use in food-fish aquaculture. This study assessed the effectiveness of seven products, including hydrogen peroxide (as a concentrated liquid or in granular form (PAK-27)), peracetic acid (as VigorOx...
Chemically Controllable Magnetic Transition Temperature and Magneto‐Elastic Coupling in MnZnSb Compounds
...
Magneto-caloric materials offer the possibility to design environmentally friendlier thermal management devices compared to the widely used gas-based systems. The challenges to develop this solid-state based technology lie in the difficulty of finding materials presenting a large magneto-caloric effect over a broad temperature span together with su...
20-Hydroxyecdysone (20E) signaling as a promising target for the chemical control of malaria vectors
Published in Parasites & Vectors
With the rapid development and spread of resistance to insecticides among anopheline malaria vectors, the efficacy of current World Health Organization (WHO)-approved insecticides targeting these vectors is under threat. This has led to the development of novel interventions, including improved and enhanced insecticide formulations with new targets...
