Edge Effect on the Distribution of the Green Shield Bug Palomena prasina in Hazelnut Orchards, and the Role of Adjacent Habitats in Crop Colonization

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 5, Page 461-474, May 2026.
Spring–Summer spatial dynamics of Palomena prasina (L.) and potential IPM strategies. ABSTRACT Palomena prasina (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), the green shield bug (GSB), is an important hazelnut pest in Southern Europe. Currently, its control focuses on insecticide spraying during the crop season. We hypothesized that, as for other pentatomid species,

The C2H2‐GGAT Regulatory Module Fine‐Tunes Glutamate Homeostasis to Improve Fruit Flavour and Enhance Disease Resistance in Peach

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3282-3295, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Free amino acids (FAAs) play a fundamental role in determining fruit quality and stress adaptation, yet their genetic regulation remains poorly understood. Through an integrated approach combining metabolomic and sensory analyses of 120 peach (Prunus persica) hybrids, we identified glutamate as a key metabolite linking FAA content to umami ...

A study of fruit diseases occurring in a mid-western market [PDF]

open access: yes, 1930
Diseases occurring in a market represent to a fair degree the diseases of fruits and vegetables in the field, since, in the majority of cases, the diseases appearing and developing in the markets are but a delayed expression of infection which occurred ...

PLDC‐Net: A Domain‐Specific Base Model for Plant Leaf Disease Classification Domain Adaptation Tasks

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant diseases are the cause of heavy losses of crop production and, therefore, a big contributor to food shortages. Identifying these diseases as early as possible is important to limit the negative effects that these diseases have on the yields, as slow response time will lead to the spread of diseases and further loss.
