PhytoFrontiers, 2021 Until the early 1990s, cyst nematodes were abundant pathogens in fields where hosts of Heterodera spp. were frequent members of crop rotations along California’s Central Coast. To mitigate damage caused by Heterodera schachtii and H. cruciferae, the soil

Diffusion and adsorption of the nematicide 1,3-dichloropropene in soil [PDF]
, 1972 After soil fumigation the concentration of the nematicidal compounds cis and trans 1,3-dichloropropene at various depths in the soil was estimated by electron-capture gas-chromatography.

Quantum Chemical Molecular Dynamics Simulations of 1,3-Dichloropropene Combustion
, 2015 Oxidative decomposition of 1,3-dichloropropene was investigated using quantum chemical molecular dynamics (QM/MD) at 1500 and 3000 K. Thermal oxidation of 1,3-dichloropropene was initiated by (1) abstraction of allylic H/Cl by O2 and (2) intra-annular C ...

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.This study investigated short‐term impacts of seed treatment‐derived neonicotinoids on soil bacterial communities in wheat‐planted microcosms. Over 10 days, significant Day and Day × Treatment effects on bacterial community structure were observed, with selective enrichment and suppression of specific taxa despite limited overall changes in alpha ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.Abstract Phytophthora crown rot, caused by Phytophthora cactorum, is a soilborne disease with broad impacts on cultivated strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa). A resistance locus, RPc2, was previously identified in octoploid strawberries, but the underlying genomic architecture and causal genes remained uncharacterized.

Methyl bromide alternatives evaluated for California strawberry nurseries
California Agriculture, 2008 The recent phase-out of the soil fumigant methyl bromide (MB) due to its impact on stratospheric ozone presents a huge challenge to strawberry nursery producers. We evaluated the effectiveness of alternative fumigants on soil pests and plant productivity,

The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica
Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...

Non-Chemical Soil Fumigation for Sustainable Strawberry Production in Southern Italy
Agronomy, 2021 In intensive strawberry production, monoculture is a common practice worldwide; however, prolonged replanting can cause plant disorders and jeopardize profitable cultivation of this highly valuable crop.
