Factors affecting U.S. sorghum and cotton exports: A dynamic ARDL simulation approach
Abstract The U.S. faces increasing competition from Argentina and Brazil for sorghum and cotton exports. Using a dynamic Auto Regressive Distributed Lag model, this study shows that U.S. sorghum and cotton exports are positively affected by area harvested, yield, and export price.

Recent Advances in Cotton Transformation and Genome Editing Techniques: The Prospects and Challenges
Application of transformed cotton plants. Cotton transformation yields desirable traits, including: (1) strengthening insect and pest resistance, (2) enhancing the resistance to abiotic stress such as drought, heat, cold and salinity, (3) improving herbicide tolerance, (4) increasing the cotton lint and seed yield, (5) boosting nutrient uptake ...

Cotton stalk management and a cover crop produce minimal effects on cotton leafroll dwarf virus
Abstract In 2017, cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) was first reported in the United States. One CLRDV inoculum source includes the previous year's cotton stalks; hence, destroying cotton stalks could be effective for CLRDV management.

Commodity risk assessment of Petunia spp. and Calibrachoa spp. unrooted cuttings from Costa Rica
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to evaluate the probability of entry of pests (likelihood of pest freedom at entry), including both regulated and non‐regulated pests, associated with unrooted cuttings of the genera Petunia and Calibrachoa produced under physical isolation in Costa Rica.

The technique of terrestrial sampling of boll weevil (BW) populations is expensive and inefficient over large areas, but may be cheaper and more efficient without involving the manipulation of cotton squares.

ECONOMIC RISK EFFICIENCY OF BOLL WEEVIL ERADICATION [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to determine the economic risk efficiency of implementing a boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis [Boheman]) eradication (BWE) program in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) producing regions of the Mississippi Delta.

Fungal seed treatments of cotton affect boll weevil development
Fewer boll weevil larvae hatched and fewer adults emerged from fungal‐treated plants. In addition, the developmental time from oviposition to adult emergence was delayed in the fungal‐treated plants. Abstract BACKGROUND Nonpathogenic fungi associated with plants can enhance plant defenses against stress factors, including herbivory. This study assessed
