Robust Citrus Disease Diagnosis: A Hybrid CNN Framework for Multi‐Task Classification, Severity Estimation, and Cross‐Species Adaptation

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
We propose a hybrid CNN–ML approach to accurately classify diseases in lemon and orange leaves and assess their severity. Our model achieves high accuracy and demonstrates generalizability, showing promise for automated disease detection and management in citrus crops.

Effect of seed circulation systems on the spread and diversity of Xanthomonas phaseoli pv. manihotis infecting cassava crops of the Colombian Caribbean

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 353-364, January 2026.
Cassava is a lifeline for millions of people across the tropics, but its productivity is at risk from a disease called Cassava Bacterial Blight (CBB). In this study, we explore how the everyday practices of farmers exchanging cassava cuttings—a long‐standing tradition—can shape how the disease spreads and evolves in the Colombian Caribbean.

Overexpression of Anthocyanidin Reductase Increases Flavonoids Content to Combat Fusarium Wilt in the Root Xylem of Vernicia montana

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Root xylem extract of resistant V. montana inhibited Fof‐1 growth. After Fof‐1 infection, we screened the increased 13 types of flavonoids and the up‐regulated eight genes in the flavonoid biosynthesis in V. montana. VmANR overexpression enhanced the flavonoid content, with catechin, (−)‐epicatechin and (−)‐epigallocatechin inhibiting Fof‐1 growth ...

The TALE PthA4 of Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri Indirectly Activates an Expansin Gene CsEXP2 and an Endoglucanase CsEG1 via CsLOB1 to Cause Citrus Canker Symptoms

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
Citrus canker caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) is an important citrus disease worldwide. PthA4 is the most important pathogenicity gene of Xcc and encodes a transcription activator-like effector (TALE) secreted by the type III secretion ...

Fungal Species of Botryosphaeriaceae Associated With Avocado Dieback in Southern Spain

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
In southern Spain, water scarcity has favoured avocado diseases, causing branch dieback, mummified fruits and cankers. Between 2019 and 2022, 252 fungi were isolated; the most common were Neofusicoccum spp. and Lasiodiplodia sp. Their pathogenic role was confirmed, with Botryosphaeriaceae identified as the main cause of avocado dieback.

CROP ALERT: A Citrus Canker Fact Sheet for Homeowners

EDIS, 2003
Citrus canker (CC) is caused by the bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri. The pathogen enters host tissues through wounds and natural openings called stomata. It is a serious disease of all citrus and some citrus relatives.

Application of Plant‐Derived Silver Nanoparticles for Control of Economically Important Bacterial Plant Pathogens

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
The obtained through green synthesis nanoparticles—AgNPs can be used for control of the important plant pathogenic bacteria. ABSTRACT Plant‐pathogenic bacteria pose a serious threat to crop production, and although several methods have been established, preventive strategies remain the most widely applied.

Commodity risk assessment of oak and walnut logs from the US

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission submitted to the EFSA Panel on Plant Health a Dossier from the United States proposing the use of a vacuum–steam–heat treatment as a stand‐alone phytosanitary measure to mitigate the risk of entry of Bretziella fagacearum, Geosmithia morbida and its vector Pityophthorus juglandis (thousand cankers disease complex) into ...
