Factors affecting U.S. sorghum and cotton exports: A dynamic ARDL simulation approach

Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 285-303, September 2025.
Abstract The U.S. faces increasing competition from Argentina and Brazil for sorghum and cotton exports. Using a dynamic Auto Regressive Distributed Lag model, this study shows that U.S. sorghum and cotton exports are positively affected by area harvested, yield, and export price.

Semiochemicals from herbivory induced cotton plants enhance the foraging behaviour of the cotton boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis

, 2012
The boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis, has been monitored through deployment of traps baited with aggregation pheromone components. However, field studies have shown that the number of insects caught in these traps is significantly reduced during cotton ...

Cotton stalk management and a cover crop produce minimal effects on cotton leafroll dwarf virus

Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract In 2017, cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) was first reported in the United States. One CLRDV inoculum source includes the previous year's cotton stalks; hence, destroying cotton stalks could be effective for CLRDV management.

A CC‐NB‐ARC‐LRR Gene Regulates Bract Morphology in Cotton

Advanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 44, November 26, 2024.
This research article focuses on cotton bracts. The authors clone the gene of the frego bract, construct a single‐cell atlas of cotton and excavate genes related to bract type‐related and analyze the mechanism of the different cell morphology of the two bracts.

Commodity risk assessment of Petunia spp. and Calibrachoa spp. unrooted cuttings from Costa Rica

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to evaluate the probability of entry of pests (likelihood of pest freedom at entry), including both regulated and non‐regulated pests, associated with unrooted cuttings of the genera Petunia and Calibrachoa produced under physical isolation in Costa Rica.
