Harnessing entomopathogenic fungi: A meta‐analysis on their role as plant growth promoters

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Our meta‐analysis highlights the potential of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) as sustainable alternatives to chemical pesticides and fertilisers. By promoting plant growth and reducing reliance on agrochemicals, EPF can support healthier crops, minimise environmental contamination and improve profitability within food production systems.

Cuticle of the cypselas of the Asteraceae species

Turczaninowia, 2015
Results of morphological and anatomic researches of cypselas of species of Asteraceae family are presented. It is established that the plicatum of a surface of cypsela exocarpium is manifestation not of folds of a cuticle, but outgrowths of external walls of cypsela exocarpium.

Leveraging machine learning and citizen science data to describe flowering phenology across South Africa

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Recent shifts in flowering times are an index of, and a response to, human driven climate change. However, most information on these flowering changes is heavily skewed to the northern hemisphere. This imbalance limits our understanding of how climate change is affecting ecosystems, including the mismatches of flowering times between species, increased

A deletion upstream of the degron of AcIAA27 leads to auxinic herbicide resistance in Arctotheca calendula

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
An in‐frame deletion was identified in AcIAA27, compared to the susceptible population, which confer resistance to both 2,4‐D and dicamba. Abstract BACKGROUND Two populations of Arctotheca calendula (capeweed) from near Naracoorte, South Australia, were not controlled by 2,4‐D. These populations were investigated for resistance to 2,4‐D and other auxin

Silicon fertilization in maize increases attractiveness of nocturnal herbivore‐induced plant volatiles to Spodoptera frugiperda natural enemies

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Silicon (Si) fertilization enhances the attractiveness of plant volatiles emitted by fall armyworm‐infested maize plant to the predatory earwig Doru luteipes by triggering the emission of the terpene neryl acetate. Abstract BACKGROUND Silicon (Si) fertilization has been well‐documented to enhance plant resistance against insect pests by increasing the ...
