Tall fescue performance in response to natural organic and synthetic granular fertilizers and Rhizoctonia solani inoculation

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Repeated applications of natural organic based fertilizers can benefit soil health and potentially suppress some turfgrass diseases. One of the major summer diseases affecting many lawns is brown patch (caused by various Rhizoctonia and Rhizoctonia‐like species).

Wheat fertilization affects oviposition preference of wheat midge, Sitodiplosis mosellana (Géhin) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6740-6748, July 2026.
Wheat fertilization increased plant growth, nitrogen and protein levels, influencing the wheat volatile profile and affecting female wheat midge choice to lay eggs. This could partly result from the observed changes in the VOC profile. Abstract BACKGROUND In Canada, the orange wheat blossom midge (hereafter called wheat midge), Sitodiplosis mosellana ...

Treatment of cotton with plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria consortium alters host location and oviposition of Spodoptera exigua

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 7123-7136, July 2026.
Two plant‐growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) consortia (AU8 and TX1) induced a deterrence of host plant location and oviposition behavior of Spodoptera exigua females in both susceptible and resistant cotton plants. Most of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased in PGPR‐treated plants compared to untreated plants. # indicates treatments not

Effects of applying Trichoderma asperellum to rice (Oryza sativa) on phytobiome and plant responses

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 1, July 2026.
We investigated the effect of dipping at transplanting or post‐transplanting spray application on the root‐associated microbiome or leaf epiphytes via amplicon sequencing, and on plant responses via RNA‐seq. Both root dipping and foliar application with Trichoderma asperellum spore suspension only had a limited impact on the leaf epiphytes and root ...

Drought Stress Promotes Aphis gossypii Growth but Decreases Host Attractiveness in Melon

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 770-779, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Drought stress is a significant environmental factor that affects plant physiology and growth, leading to considerable detrimental effects on crop productivity. Cucumis melo, which is widely cultivated for its economic value, is particularly susceptible to water scarcity.
