Plant pathogens as biocontrol agents of Cirsium arvense : an overestimated approach? [PDF]
Cirsium arvense is one of the worst weeds in agriculture. As herbicides are not very effective and not accepted by organic farming and special habitats, possible biocontrol agents have been investigated since many decades.

Alkaline soils comprise 30% of the earth and have low plant-available iron (Fe) concentration, and can cause iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC). IDC causes soybean yield losses of $260 million annually.

Fullerenol affects maize plants depending on their iron status
Although fullerene (C60) has attracted great interest as a carbon-based nanomaterial with unique properties, today, little is known about the interaction of its water-soluble derivates, including fullerenol with higher plants.

Cultivation in a Natural Microbial Community Enhances the Industrial Performance of a Genetically Engineered Cyanobacterium for Bioplastic Production. [PDF]
We developed a hybrid photosynthetic microbiome, in which the native cyanobacterium of a natural microbial consortium was replaced with a genetically engineered Synechocystis strain optimised for polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) production. The hybrid system demonstrated improved tolerance to abiotic stresses, making it suitable for upscaling.

A spatial analysis of physiological changes associated with infection of cotyledons of marrow plants with cucumber mosaic virus [PDF]
Changes in host primary metabolism associated with the compatible interaction between cucumber mosaic virus and cotyledons of the marrow plant (Cucurbita pepo L.) have been localized, first by measuring activities of key enzymes in infected and ...

Field-Based Scoring of Soybean Iron Deficiency Chlorosis Using RGB Imaging and Statistical Learning
Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) is an abiotic stress in soybean that can cause significant biomass and yield reduction. IDC is characterized by stunted growth and yellowing and interveinal chlorosis of early trifoliate leaves. Scoring IDC severity in the

FeEDDHA-facilitated Fe uptake in relation to the behaviour of FeEDDHA components in the soil-plant system as a function of time and dosage. [PDF]
FeEDDHA products are widely used to prevent and remedy Fe chlorosis in crops grown on calcareous soils. These products consist of a mixture of FeEDDHA components: racemic o,o-FeEDDHA, meso o,o-FeEDDHA, o,p-FeEDDHA and rest-FeEDDHA. The FeEDDHA components

EFFECT OF CONTINUOUS LIGHT ON PHOTOSYNTHETIC PIGMENTS IN SOLONACEA SPECIES
Photosynthetic pigments and photosynthetic activity of three Solanacea species –Solanum lycopersicum L., Solanum melongena L. and Capsicum annuum L. in response to continuous lighting (CL) during pre-reproductive period were studied.

Evaluation of the resistance of few citrus rootstocks to alkalinity by applying a faste test of secreening [PDF]
Alkalinity of Moroccan soils is the major abiotic constraint on citrus production area. The best choice of citrus rootstocks adequate and resistant is a better solution to avoid this problem.
