Abstract Tomato cultivation is threatened by the infestation of nocturnal invasive tomato pinworm, Tuta absoluta . This study was based on field observations that a wild plant, Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme , grown in Mount Kenya region, Kenya, less attacked T. absoluta, unlike cultivated plants like S. (var. Rambo F1). We hypothesized plant may be actively avoided gravid females because emission repellent allelochemical constituents. Therefore, we compared levels pest monocrops and intercrops two genotypes, characterized headspace volatiles, then determined compounds detectable insect through gas chromatography-linked electroantennography (GC-EAG), finally performed bioassays using blend four EAG-active unique to tomato. found significant reductions monocrop tomato, plant. Quantitative qualitative differences were noted between volatiles plants, day night volatile collections. The most discriminating treatments varied with variable selection or machine learning methods used. In GC-EAG recordings, 16 including hexanal, ( Z )-3-hexenol, α -pinene, β -myrcene, -phellandrene, E )- -ocimene, terpinolene, limonene oxide, camphor, citronellal, methyl salicylate, -caryophyllene, others tentatively identified as 3,7,7-Trimethyl-1,3,5-cycloheptatriene, germacrene D cis -carvenone oxide detected antennae females. Among these compounds, -caryophyllene -phellandrene are top 5 highlighted methods. A citronellal only showed dose-dependent repellence wind tunnel. provides some groundwork for exploiting allelochemicals development novel integrated management approaches against

Over the years, synthetic pesticides like herbicides, algicides, miticides, bactericides, fumigants, termiticides, repellents, insecticides, molluscicides, nematicides, and pheromones have been used to improve crop yield. When are used, over-application excess discharge into water bodies during rainfall often lead death of fish other aquatic life. Even when fishes still live, their consumption by humans may biomagnification chemicals in body system can cause deadly diseases, such as cancer, kidney diabetes, liver dysfunction, eczema, neurological destruction, cardiovascular so on. Equally, harm soil texture, microbes, animals, plants. The dangers associated with use necessitated need for alternative organic (biopesticides), which cheaper, environment friendly, sustainable. Biopesticides be sourced from microbes (e.g., metabolites), plants exudates, essential oil, extracts bark, root, leaves), nanoparticles biological origin silver gold nanoparticles). Unlike pesticides, microbial specific action, easily without expensive chemicals, environmentally sustainable residual effects. Phytopesticides myriad phytochemical compounds that make them exhibit various mechanisms likewise, they not release greenhouse gases lesser risks human health compared available pesticides. Nanobiopesticides higher pesticidal activity, targeted or controlled top-notch biocompatibility biodegradability. In this review, we examined different types merits, demerits biopesticides, but more importantly, x-rayed appropriate approaches acceptability commercial usage phytopesticides, nanobiopesticides plant nutrition, protection/yield, animal/human promotion, possible incorporation integrated pest management system.

Sustainable agriculture relies on implementing effective, eco-friendly crop protection strategies. However, the adoption of these green tactics by growers is limited their high costs resulting from insufficient integration various components Integrated Pest Management (IPM). In response, we propose a framework within IPM termed Multi-Dimensional Multiple Pests (3MP). Within this framework, spatial dimension considers interactive effects soil-crop-pest-natural enemy networks pest prevalence, while time addresses interactions over season. The 3MP aims to bolster tactics, thereby extending environmental benefits beyond protection.

Agricultural intensification has led to a drastic simplification and homogenization of agroecosystems, causing biodiversity loss an increased reliance on chemical pesticides control arthropod crop pests. However, these have major negative impacts biodiversity, ecosystem services, human health. Restoring plant diversity in agricultural landscapes could revert this trend, promote biological pest reduce the insecticides. Crop diversification is especially useful populations pests' natural enemies densities, since it does not require reduction cropped areas compared set-aside strategies based non-crop habitats. We review recent advances benefits for cover important ecological mechanisms, tools scales implement diversification. also compare relative estimates from published meta-analyses. Finally, we summarise beyond control, highlight main constraints currently preventing wider implementation guide future research directions.

The intensifying challenges posed by global climate change and water scarcity necessitate enhancements in agricultural productivity sustainability within arid regions. This review synthesizes recent advancements genetic engineering, molecular breeding, precision agriculture, innovative management techniques aimed at improving crop drought resistance, soil health, overall efficiency. By examining cutting-edge methodologies, such as CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, marker-assisted selection (MAS), omics technologies, we highlight efforts to manipulate drought-responsive genes consolidate favorable agronomic traits through interdisciplinary innovations.

The South American tomato pinworm, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick), is one of the major invasive pests that causes severe economic damage to several hosts, especially plants, globally. Spinosad, a biopesticide widely used against insect pests, also shows promising results T. absoluta. Here, we investigated evolution spinosad resistance and its effects on biological traits related gene fully understand relationship between degree associated fitness costs. spinosad-resistant strain (SpRS) with moderate level (14.40-fold) was developed following continuous selection susceptible (SS) for eight generations. Fitness analysis showed larval pupal developmental durations were significantly increased, while adult emergence substantially reduced in SpRS compared SS. Adult longevity (male female), fecundity, hatching rates decreased Additionally, expression analyses indicated down-regulation development reproduction-related genes (Vg, VgR, JHBP, JHAMT, JHE, JHDK) population. Further, mRNA resistance-related cytochrome P450 CYP321C40, followed by CYP4M116, CYP6AW1, CYP339A1, CYP6AB327, increased Taken together, these although accompanied costs, indiscriminate use might elevate level. Overall, findings provide important information about trade-off cost be crucial designing management strategies this key herbivore.

Biopesticides are pest control products derived from natural sources such as microbes, macro-organisms (insects and pathogens), plant extracts, certain minerals. Many biopesticides considered environmentally safe can complement or substitute conventional chemical pesticides. They also be highly specific broad spectrum with a unique mode of action controlling wide range species. Due to their target-specificity low no environmental residuality, conform the 3 pillars Climate-Smart Agriculture, Sustainable Development Goals, and, ultimately, Paris Agreement. This review focuses largely on microbial fungi, bacteria, viruses, nematodes. It discusses (i) various biopesticide formulations, (ii) action, (iii) factors that affect potential efficacy biopesticides, (iv) challenges adoption (v) role in Integrated Pest Management programs. Finally, advancements application techniques, well future research directions gaps, highlighted.
