Sensitivity to demethylation-inhibiting fungicides and induced expression of CYP51 associated with tebuconazole resistance in Alternaria species on mandarin in Brazil. [PDF]
Tebuconazole‐resistant isolates overexpress CYP51 and, when tested at field rates, did not reduce ABS severity, whereas difenoconazole and mefentrifluconazole remained effective. Abstract BACKGROUND Alternaria brown spot (ABS), caused by Alternaria spp., is an important disease affecting mandarin production in several citrus‐growing regions worldwide ...

Parallel host shifts in a bacterial plant pathogen suggest independent genetic solutions. [PDF]
In Xylella fastidiosa, two parallel host shifts to infect olive trees occurred in Brazil and Italy, but the lack of genetic convergence in olive‐infecting strains across the two distinct clades suggests independent genetic solutions. Abstract While there are documented host shifts in many bacterial plant pathogens, the genetic foundation of host shifts

Strategies for Enhancing Resilience in Horticultural Crops Against Combined Abiotic Stresses. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Horticultural crops are increasingly exposed to simultaneous abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, and temperature extremes, which often exacerbate each other's effects, leading to severe yield and quality losses. Addressing these multifaceted challenges necessitates the development and application of integrated and innovative strategies.

Sweet orange trees grafted on selected rootstocks fertilized with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium [PDF]
The majority of citrus trees in Brazil are grafted on 'Rangpur lime' (Citrus limonia Osb.) rootstock. Despite its good horticultural performance, search for disease tolerant rootstock varieties to improve yield and longevity of citrus groves has ...

Summary In Citrus, the response to environmental floral inductive signals is inhibited by the presence of developing fruits. The mechanism involves epigenetic activation of the CcMADS19 locus (FLC orthologue), encoding a floral repressor. To understand how this epigenetic regulation is reverted to allow flowering in the following season, we have forced

Water vapor pressure deficit in Portugal and implications for the development of the invasive African citrus psyllid trioza erytreae [PDF]
African citrus psyllid (Trioza erytreae (Del Guercio)) is a vector insect of the bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter africanus, the putative causal agent of Huanglongbing, the most devastating citrus disease in the world.
