Whole Genome Assembly and Annotation of Two Invasive Sitona Species
ABSTRACT Weevils are a highly diversified taxon, comprising about 70,000 described species, including many of high economic importance. Here, we present whole genome assemblies and annotations of two Sitona species (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae).

Effect of Endophytic Fungi on Thrips tabaci Development and Population Dynamics
ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are promising biocontrol agents because they colonise healthy plant tissues asymptomatically while inducing systemic resistance that negatively affects herbivorous insects. We investigated whether treatments with the endophytes Trichoderma harzianum and Beauveria bassiana in two onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.; Sturon and Red ...

ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.

AhBWR15, A Novel RLK Gene, Confers Resistance to Ralstonia solanacearum in Peanut
ABSTRACT Bacterial wilt (BW), a severe soil‐borne disease caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, significantly impedes global peanut production. Despite its impact, the mechanisms underlying BW resistance in peanut remain unclear. Herein, we selected the highly resistant variety Nongdahua108 (H108) and the susceptible variety Nongdahua107 (H107) to develop ...
