Characterization of Long Non-Coding RNAs in the Bollworm, Helicoverpa zea, and Their Possible Role in Cry1Ac-Resistance
INSECTS, 13(1).
author keywords: long non-coding RNAs; Helicoverpa zea; Bt-resistance; Cry1Ac resistance; RNA-seq; lncRNA; bollworms; gene regulation
TL;DR:
Characterization of non-coding genetic mechanisms in Helicoverpa zea will improve the understanding of the genomic evolution of insect resistance, improve the identification of specific regulators of coding genes in general, and is the first step for potentially targeting these regulators for pest control and resistance management.

Bacterial Microbiota of Field-Collected Helicoverpa zea (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) from Transgenic Bt and Non-Bt Cotton
MICROORGANISMS, 9(4).
author keywords: Helicoverpa zea; cotton; Bt; resistance; tolerance; microbiota
TL;DR:
It is found that WideStrike samples had a higher bacterial density and diversity per larva than insects collected from non-Bt cotton over two field seasons, and argues for more research to better understand the role of cotton–bollworm–bacteria interactions and the impact on Bt toxin caterpillar susceptibility.

Bio-Efficacy of Diatomaceous Earth, Household Soaps, and Neem Oil against Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Larvae in Benin
INSECTS, 12(1).
author keywords: biopesticides; Palmida soap; Dezone; sustainable; fall armyworm; Benin
TL;DR:
The results suggest that the biorational insecticides tested in this study are cost-effective and may constitute viable control options for the fall armyworm.

New Mosquitocide Derived From Volcanic Rock
JOURNAL OF MEDICAL ENTOMOLOGY, 58(1), 458–464.
author keywords: Imergard (TM) WP; mechanical insecticide; mosquito-borne disease; mosquitoes; residual spray
MeSH headings : Animals; Culicidae; Female; Insecticides; Minerals; Mosquito Control; Mosquito Vectors
TL;DR:
This wettable powder made from volcanic rock is a mechanical insecticide representing a potential new mode of action different from current chemistry for mosquito control and is in commercial development under the trade name Imergard™WP as an indoor and outdoor residual spray.

New thinking for filth fly control: residual, non-chemical wall spray from volcanic glass
MEDICAL AND VETERINARY ENTOMOLOGY, 35(3), 451–461.
author keywords: Grey flesh fly; house fly; Imergard™ WP; mechanical insecticide; secondary screwworm
MeSH headings : Animals; Culicidae; Houseflies; Insecticides
TL;DR:
These first studies on the use of Imergard WP against flies suggest this could be an alternative method for filth fly control, unlike that for mosquitoes where it was found mostly on the lower legs.

Exogenous and endogenous microbiomes of wild-caught Phormia regina (Diptera: Calliphoridae) flies from a suburban farm by 16S rRNA gene sequencing
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 9.
MeSH headings : Animals; Biodiversity; Diptera / microbiology; Farms; High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing; Humans; Metabolome; Metabolomics / methods; Microbiota; Phylogeny; RNA, Ribosomal, 16S
TL;DR:
A snapshot of the microbial communities harbored by adult black blow flies is provided and calls for more comprehensive studies to better characterize the role these flies may play in the transmission of pathogenic microorganisms.
