Edge Effect on the Distribution of the Green Shield Bug Palomena prasina in Hazelnut Orchards, and the Role of Adjacent Habitats in Crop Colonization

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Spring–Summer spatial dynamics of Palomena prasina (L.) and potential IPM strategies. ABSTRACT Palomena prasina (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), the green shield bug (GSB), is an important hazelnut pest in Southern Europe. Currently, its control focuses on insecticide spraying during the crop season. We hypothesized that, as for other pentatomid species,

Row-Middle Weed Management Methods

open access: yesEDIS, 2020
Maintaining vegetation between the tree rows is essential in citrus groves to reduce soil erosion from rain and wind. However, the growth of this vegetation needs to be suppressed effectively to prevent their invasion into herbicide treated tree rows or

Harnessing benzamides as plant stress inhibitors, growth promoters and in management of crop resilience—A review

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Benzamides boost crop resilience by inhibiting poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) to enhance stress tolerance and, through their antimicrobial, herbicidal, and insecticidal derivatives, they offer broad protection for sustainable crop improvement. Abstract Benzamides have emerged as potent stress inhibitors and growth promoters in plant biotechnology ...

Don’t Let Vine Weeds Trip You Up

open access: yesEDIS, 2018
Weedy vines are among the problematic group of weeds in citrus due to their aggressive growth and difficulty in management. They compete for resources and hinder harvesting operations.

Phytotoxic potential of Citrus essential oils on weed species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Environmental constraints of crop production systems have stimulated interest in alternative weed management strategies. In fact, the continued use of synthetic herbicides may threaten sustainable agricultural production and result in serious ecological ...

Agriculture and forest rodent problems and control in Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Rodent pest problems and their control in Italy are reviewed. Two rats, Rattus norvegicus and Rattus rattus, and the field mouse, Apodemus sylvaticus, are often important pests both in rural and forestry areas.

Disarming the Pathogen's Metabolic Weapon: A Novel Route to Durable Disease Resistance

open access: yesModern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
Two routes to sugar acquisition in pathogenic bacteria and corresponding ‘pathogen‐starvation’ strategies. TAL effectors activate plant SWEET transporters to promote sucrose efflux into the apoplast, which can be blocked by editing SWEET promoter effector‐binding elements to prevent TAL binding. The T3E AvrBs2 converts host UDP‐galactose into xanthosan,

Tables describing the use of various inputs during organic growing of important horticultural and arable crops across Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This Annex presents the results of the survey carried out in the frame of Tasks 3.1. and Task 5.1 in the Organic PLUS project. A common table/questionnaire for both tasks was used in order to map the use of contentious inputs linked to plant protection ...
