Heterocyclic‐Based Fungicides: Emerging Strategies for Viable Plant Disease Control

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
Heterocyclic compounds have attracted considerable attention because of their structural diversity, potent antifungal activity, and ability to interact with multiple fungal targets, offering broad‐spectrum protection against phytopathogens. Synthetic and semisynthetic/part‐natural scaffolds, particularly azole, quinoline, indole, cyclotryptamine, and ...

Weed Identification using Ultrasonic Sensor in Labview

International Journal of Bio-Resource and Stress Management, 2023
The presence of weeds and pests in the crop field is a common phenomenon. The success of site-specific pest management depends on accurate identification of the pest and weeds in crop field.

The relative abundances of yeasts attractive to Drosophila suzukii differ between fruit types and are greatest on raspberries

Scientific Reports, 2022
Fungal metabolic volatiles attract Drosophila suzukii which oviposits in ripening fruits, but there are few data describing the fungal microbiomes of commercial fruits susceptible to this insect pest. We tested the hypothesis that fruit type and ripening

Engineering compact Physalis peruviana (goldenberry) to promote its potential as a global crop

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1550-1556, September 2026.
Goldenberry (Physalis peruviana) produces sweet, nutritionally rich berries, yet like many minor crops, is cultivated in limited geographical regions and has not been a focus of breeding programs for trait enhancement. Leveraging knowledge of plant architecture‐related traits from related species, we used CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated gene editing to generate a

A Risk‐Based Framework for Ranking Microbiological Hazards and Identifying Mitigation Strategies for Dried Fruits, Vegetables, Herbs, and Spices Used in Ready‐to‐Eat Foods

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Low water activity ingredients, including dried fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices, are widely used in ready‐to‐eat (RTE) and non‐RTE foods. Although low water activity limits microbial growth, bacterial pathogens can survive for extended periods in these products.

A High‐Resolution Method Using Individual Females to Assess the Competitiveness of Sterile Drosophila suzukii Males Under Semi‐Controlled Conditions

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 9, Page 1011-1021, September 2026.
A high‐resolution, novel method to assess the sexual competitiveness of sterile mass‐reared Drosophila suzukii males is calibrated and illustrated using different laboratory and wild type strains. Isolation of individual females after semi‐controlled cage competition tests and subsequent observation of their progeny showed that sterile males from two ...

Evaluation of Monitoring Traps and Lures for Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in Berry Plantings in Florida

Insects, 2019
Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is an invasive insect pest that was detected in Florida in August 2009 in Hillsborough County. Very limited information is available for berry growers to properly detect and monitor this serious pest in ...

Comparative Analysis of Colletotrichum Isolates From Apple Tree Reveals Differences in Response to Temperature, Organ Preference and Cultivar Affinity

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Colletotrichum siamense, C. grossum, C. chrysophilum and C. fioriniae, associated with apple bitter rot and Glomerella leaf spot, exhibited distinct thermotolerance patterns both in vitro and in planta, along with differences in spore germination and the colonization of apple fruits and leaves.

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1805-1829, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Comparative Valorization of Diverse Food Waste Streams Into Functional ZnO Nanoparticles for Postharvest Pathogen Control

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 31, 17 August 2026.
Due to varying amounts of phytochemical constituents, diverse food waste have shown to differentially mediate the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles with unique physicochemical properties and antimicrobial performance. In this study, raspberry pomace (RP) amongst other waste produces well‐dispersed nanoparticles with superior overall activity against food ...
