“…As an eco‐friendly pest management approach, the theory of biotremology has recently found practical applications, such as using vibrational energy deter leafhoppers in European vineyards 34 and applying 300 Hz vibration to control T. vaporariorum on greenhouse tomato crops 10 . However, critical aspects of insect vibrational signals, including their complexity and flexibility of the multimodal interactions, and environmental context influences like light/dark have been rarely considered 35,36 . This study emphasizes the significance of light‐dependent behavioral rhythm and specific courtship signals in BPH, aiming to incorporate these findings into future vibrational pest control strategies.…”

BACKGROUNDVibrational signal plays a crucial role in courtship communication in many insects. However, it remains unclear whether insect vibrational signals exhibit daily rhythmicity in response to changes in environmental cues.RESULTSIn this study, we observed daily rhythms of both female vibrational signals (FVS) and male vibrational signals (MVS) in the brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens (Stål), one of the most notorious rice pests across Asia. Notably, oscillations of FVS and MVS in paired BPHs were synchronized as part of male‐female duetting interactions, displaying significant day‐night rhythmicity. Furthermore, we observed light dependency of FVS emissions under different photoperiodic regimes (18L:6D and 6L:18D) and illumination intensity levels (>300 lux, 50 lux, and 25 lux). Subsequently, the potential role of circadian clock genes cryptochromes (Nlcry1 and Nlcry2) in regulating FVS daily oscillations was examined using gene knockdown via RNA interference. We observed sharp declines and disrupted rhythms in FVS frequencies when either of the Nlcrys was downregulated, with Nlcry2 knockdown showing a more prominent effect. Moreover, we recorded a novel FVS variant (with a dominant frequency of 361.76±4.31 Hz) emitted by dsNlcry1‐treated BPH females, which significantly diminished the impact of courtship stimuli on receptive males.CONCLUSIONWe observed light‐dependent daily rhythms of substrate‐borne vibrational signals (SBVS) in BPH and demonstrated essential yet distinct roles of the two Nlcrys. These findings enhanced our understanding of insect SBVS and illustrated the potential of novel precision physical control strategies for disrupting mating behaviors in this rice pest.This article is protected by copyright.

“…Observations were made to determine the motor skills of students at two different schools. The results showed that students from both schools, on average, had very good abilities (Soomro et al, 2018;Stritih-Peljhan & Virant-Doberlet, 2021). Then what makes this ability need to be measured?…”

Technology development in the 5.0 era has been rapid, including in education and sports. One example of technology in sports education is a sports skills test kit. This study aims to develop and test the cricket batting test robotic-based equipment using sensor cameras with the grid system. The experiment was carried out by measuring student responses regarding using a robotic-based batting test tool using a camera sensor with a grid system. This student response is useful for knowing the extent of student responses and reactions to the products used so that they can be used as reflection material and references in designing products. The research method used in this study is Research and Development. The instrument used in this study is a test instrument in the form of an observation sheet. Product validation is divided into two, media validation and learning evaluation. The final assessment results are 160 and 162, indicating that the product is very suitable for use. They are synchronized by looking for whether there is an effect of student responses on student abilities. The results show 53,4% of the effect of students' positive responses on the object's ability. Based on the study's results, it was stated that the development of the tool was feasible to use and validated by media transfer and evaluation experts. In addition, this research is also developing research inspired by previous research. Further research is needed on implementing modified tools to see the effectiveness of training using an Android-based cricket batting test tool using a sensor camera with a grid system.
