The rate and extent of brood production are heavily influenced by factors such as ambient temperature, humidity, food availability, and colony strength. Maintaining consistent colony health across diverse initial strengths and navigating the unpredictable spring weather of Kashmir posed challenges to data collection. Brood capped area varied with the strength of the bee colonies and showed significant increase throughout the spring season; and started decreasing with the onset of summer season in mid may during both the study years. Significantly maximum capped brood area across all the treatments was computed in the month of May as 811.62 cm2 followed by 644.95 cm2 during the month of April and a significant minimum brood area of 263.66 cm2 in the month of March during both the spring season. Brood area of Apis cerana workers exhibited a significant and positive correlation with minimum and maximum temperature and a non-significant and negative correlation with minimum and maximum relative humidity during both the years and the rainfall showed a non-significant and negative correlation with brood area during the spring season 2021 and a non-significant and positive correlation in 2022. These findings contribute valuable baseline data on the brood rearing patterns of native Apis cerana in Kashmir, offering insights for optimized beekeeping practices and a foundation for future studies on the impact of climate variability on these crucial pollinators.","PeriodicalId":15023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"28 12","pages":"1510-1517"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147921228","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pesticides play a crucial role in maintaining horticultural crop yields and quality, yet their widespread application poses significant environmental and health challenges. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of pesticide impacts in horticultural systems, examining contamination pathways, ecological consequences, and human health implications. Evidence from recent studies indicates that over 79.9% of horticultural crops contain detectable pesticide residues, with 32.9% of samples exceeding Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs). Environmental contamination is pervasive, with 95% detection rates in agricultural soils and 89% in surface waters. Health impacts range from acute poisoning symptoms to chronic diseases, including cancer, neurological disorders, and reproductive dysfunction. Organophosphates demonstrate the highest cancer risks, with acute myeloid leukaemia showing a 1.8-fold increased risk among agricultural workers. Neonicotinoids pose severe threats to pollinators, with colony losses exceeding 30% in affected regions. Mitigation strategies, including Integrated Pest Management (IPM), organic farming, and biological control, show promise, achieving 25-95% reductions in pesticide use and 40-85% reductions in environmental impacts. Bioremediation technologies offer cost-effective solutions for contaminated site cleanup, with bioaugmentation achieving complete pesticide removal within 35 days. Future regulatory frameworks must balance food security needs with environmental protection and public health considerations through evidence-based policies and sustainable agricultural practices.","PeriodicalId":15023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"28 11","pages":"1451-1464"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147921953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To safeguard these beneficial organisms, it is essential to mitigate the non-target effects of most pesticides; however, this requires understanding the potential native natural enemies in the ecosystem and evaluating their possible ecosystem services against current spodopteran pest threats. Studies on the host range of fall armyworm and its natural enemies were undertaken at SKUAST-Jammu for two consecutive years (2021 and 2022) was encompassing by fortnightly surveys across three distinct areas in Jammu district viz., Nagrota, Marh and R.S. Pura Block. The widespread infestations of fall armyworm (FAW) were observed on varied host plants viz., maize, cowpea, chilli, sorghum, sugarcane, cabbage and cauliflower, belonging to four major families (Poaceae, Fabaceae, Solanaceae, and Brassicaceae). The detailed studies on pest status revealed that fall armyworm was a major pest on maize in Nagrota, Marh and R.S. Pura Block during both years. Among natural enemies, ten natural enemies categorised into predators and parasitoids of fall armyworm were recorded in the maize ecosystem. Among the parasitoids, Chelonus sp., Campoletis chlorideae, Cotesia sp. and Tetrastichus howardi were recorded parasitising various stages of the fall armyworm life cycle. Alongside the parasitoids, a significant number of predators were meticulously recorded within the maize ecosystem. Among them, the presence of the formidable Asian hornet (Vespa velutina) as a predator of fall armyworm was also observed. Thus, fall armyworm infestation, particularly in maize, with minor infestations observed in chilli, cabbage and sugarcane and in the maize ecosystem, ten natural enemies, comprising predators and parasitoids of fall armyworm, were identified.","PeriodicalId":15023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"28 11","pages":"177-182"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147920300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review examines the historical development of herbicide-resistant canola, focusing on the evolution of resistance mechanisms such as target-site resistance (TSR) and non-target-site resistance (NTSR), as well as the rising prevalence of multiple and cross-resistance in weed populations. Cytogenetic insights, including chromosome mapping and gene duplication studies, provide a deeper understanding of the genetic basis of resistance. Recent advancements in genomic breeding, marker-assisted selection (MAS), and CRISPR-mediated genome editing offer promising strategies for developing resistant cultivars with improved weed management efficiency. Additionally, integrating genomic data with agronomic practices—such as diversified crop rotations, herbicide mixtures, and biotechnological interventions—is essential to mitigate resistance evolution. However, challenges such as gene flow to wild relatives, regulatory constraints, and the environmental impact of genetically modified crops necessitate a balanced approach to herbicide resistance management. This review underscores the importance of combining cytogenetics, molecular breeding, and advanced genome editing tools to develop sustainable and resilient canola cultivars. Future research should focus on novel resistance genes, alternative herbicide targets, and eco-friendly weed management strategies to ensure long-term productivity and environmental sustainability.","PeriodicalId":15023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"28 5","pages":"253-267"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147913857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Asian citrus psyllid (ACP), Diaphorina citri Kuwayama is one of the most important and serious pest of citrus. Both nymphs and adults of psylla suck the cell sap from flower buds, leaves, young shoots which results in leaf distortion, curling and complete defoliation or shedding. It is important to understand pest biology and ecology before initiating control measures. Therefore, the experiment was conducted to study the biometrics and biology of citrus psylla under laboratory conditions on Kinnow. Different life stages, duration along with their morphological parameters were recorded to differentiate between different instars. Eggs were laid in clusters on the half opened tender leaves and tender twigs. There are five nymphal stages with their body length varying from 0.36 to 1.66 mm. The incubation, nymphal and adult longevity were 4.5±0.53, 14.9±0.99 and 26.4±3.03 days, respectively.
