Soil pH and Extractable Elements under Blight-affected and Healthy Citrus Trees on Six Florida Soils
Abstract Citrus trees affected with blight, a disease of unknown cause, were associated with soils having higher pH and Ca levels than soils under healthy trees. A detailed study of soil samples taken in 5-cm increments to a depth of 45 cm under healthy and blight-affected trees from five sites showed that pH ...

Industrial manufacturing processes have transformative effects on the components of food matrix. These transformations in food matrix and components have direct implications for quality assurance (QA), food quality (e.g., nutritional profile and texture), and food safety management (e.g., pathogen control and toxin mitigation). ABSTRACT This systematic

Management of citrus leprosis using lime sulphur and their implications to soil and plant properties [PDF]
Lime sulphur is used worldwide in agriculture to control pests and diseases. Our objective was to determine the effect of lime sulphur applications in an orange orchard on soil chemical properties and foliar nutrients after seven years of use to control ...

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
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‐

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 ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The impacts of elevated surface ultraviolet‐B (UV‐B) on ecological processes, such as anti‐herbivore defence in plants, remain poorly understood. Many cereal crops depend on accumulating silicon (Si) in their tissues to resist insect herbivory.

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,

The ZmRACK1–ZmCDPK7–ZmAPX1 module regulates plant antiviral immunity
In maize, ZmRACK1 acts as a scaffold protein that bridges the cyclin‐dependent kinase ZmCDPK7 and the ascorbate peroxidase ZmAPX1, promoting ZmAPX1 activity to mitigate MCMV infection. Upon viral infection, P31 obstructs formation of the ZmRACK1‐ZmCDPK7‐ZmAPX1 complex, inhibiting ZmCDPK7‐mediated ZmAPX1 activity and promoting reactive oxygen species ...
