Soil beneficial bacteria: Harnessing tools for optimizing citrus growth and soil health in pH‐stressed soils

Journal of Environmental Quality
Abstract Rhizosphere bacteria can support crop production by promoting plant health, soil fertility, and resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the potential role of soil‐beneficial bacteria, particularly plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), remains inadequately explored in citrus production ...

Rootstock impacts on citrus flush dynamics, vegetative growth, and Diaphorina citri infestation and dispersion: Implications for huanglongbing management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Dwarfing citrus rootstocks restrict flush shoot growth on the scion, thereby reducing Asian citrus psyllid infestation, dispersal, and huanglongbing (HLB) progression. These findings support the use of dwarfing rootstocks as an effective cultural strategy in integrated HLB management for citrus orchards.

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas assays for point‐of‐need detection of Stewart's wilt pathogen (Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii) of corn and Maize dwarf mosaic virus

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1988-1999, April 2025.
Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

Converse Responses of Biochar Application on N2O Emissions in Soils at Different pH Values in a Subtropical Citrus Orchard

Agronomy
The aim of this study was to explore the effect of biochar on N2O emissions in soils with different pH levels. Soils with five pH levels (4.0, 5.1, 5.8, 6.6, and 7.2) were incubated in two conditions, with 0% biochar (CK) and 1% biochar (BC), for 23 days. N2O emissions were measured at nine time points, and soil chemical properties, AOA-amoA, AOB-amoA,
