TL;DR
Bisulflufen, a novel phenyl trifluoroethyl thioether acaricide, is evaluated against the two‐spotted spider mite, a major global agricultural pest that has developed resistance to nearly all acaricides used for its control.
Abstract
The two‐spotted spider mite (TSSM), Tetranychus urticae, is a major global agricultural pest that has developed resistance to nearly all acaricides used for its control. This study evaluated the toxicity of bisulflufen, a novel phenyl trifluoroethyl thioether acaricide, against the TSSM.
The article describes the khapra beetle (Trogoderma granarium Everts), a dangerous pest of stored products that may be introduced into the Russian Federation through the importation of regulated commodities from countries where the pest occurs. Inspection of imported commodities is essential for its detection.

The two-spotted spider mite,
Tetranychus urticae
(Acari: Tetranychidae), is a cosmopolitan pest of numerous crops, including grapevines, where outbreaks cause leaf chlorosis, necrosis, defoliation, and yield reduction. Intensive use of synthetic acaricides has led to resistance and negative effects on non-target...

Ectomycorrhizal fungi disappear after clearcutting, while saprotrophic agaricomycetes initially increase in abundance and decrease again as ectomycorrhizal fungi recolonize – an effect that was more pronounced in previously fertilized stands.

ABSTRACT We report the genome sequence of Aleuroclava gordoniae-associated polerovirus (AgAP), identified from the whitefly Aleuroclava gordoniae. The 5,650-nt AgAP genome contains 6 open reading frames. Phylogenetic analysis places AgAP within the genus Polerovirus, which comprises plant-infecting viruses. This study...
