A conditional silencing suppression system for transient expression. [PDF]
RNA silencing is a powerful tool deployed by plants against viral infection and abnormal gene expression. Plant viruses have evolved a suite of silencing suppressors for counter-defense, which are also widely used to boost transcript and protein ...

Have the environmental benefits of insect farming been overstated? A critical review
ABSTRACT Insect farming is frequently promoted as a sustainable food solution, yet current evidence challenges many environmental benefits claimed by industry proponents. This review critically examines the scientific foundation for assessing the environmental impacts of insect farming in both human food and animal feed applications.

Do stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses share the same binding sites?
Here, we tested if different stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses can compete for the same binding sites within the aphid stylets. We conducted sequential transmission assays of a potyvirus (ZYMV) followed by a cucumovirus (CMV) using Aphis gossypii as a vector and melon and pepper as test plants.

Occurrence of beet western yellows virus in sugar beet in Czechoslovakia
The beet western yellows virus (BWYV) was identified in sugar beet plants with leaf yellowing symptoms. When transmitted toSinapis alba L. the virus isolate caused severe symptoms of yellowing and violetting of the interveinal leaf tissue of this plant.

Several common cover crops and flower strip plants are susceptible to BMYV, while susceptibility and attractiveness to Myzus persicae vary widely. These plants may act as virus reservoirs, emphasising the need to prevent green bridges. ABSTRACT Virus yellows (VY), caused by beet chlorosis virus (BChV), beet mild yellowing virus (BMYV) and beet yellows ...

SummaryThe incidence of beet mild yellowing luteovirus (BMYV) and non‐beet‐infecting strains of beet western yellows luteovirus (BWYV) in individual winged aphids, caught in yellow water‐traps, in sugar beet during the spring and early summer, and in oilseed rape plots in the autumn, was monitored using monoclonal antibodies in ELISA tests from 1990 to

Antibiotic Use in Livestock: A Driver of Resistance in Africa and the Path to Safer Alternatives
The incorporation of antibiotics into animal feeds is one of the drivers of antibiotic resistance, a global One Health challenge. To reduce the burden of antibiotic resistance, the use of alternative growth promoters and drugs must be promoted, as well as sensitization and implementation of regulations.
