Effect of Endophytic Fungi on Thrips tabaci Development and Population Dynamics

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 8, Page 1102-1114, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are promising biocontrol agents because they colonise healthy plant tissues asymptomatically while inducing systemic resistance that negatively affects herbivorous insects. We investigated whether treatments with the endophytes Trichoderma harzianum and Beauveria bassiana in two onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.; Sturon and Red ...

A Fungal Glycoside Hydrolase From Colletotrichum asianum Mini‐Chromosomes Targets Host Chitinase to Suppress Plant Immunity

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
CaMutA interacts with MiChi1 and promotes the degradation of the latter by the 26S proteasome, resulting in the inability to activate reactive oxygen species (ROS), PR genes, and MAPK signalling, thereby weakening resistance to C. asianum. ABSTRACT Colletotrichum asianum, the cause of mango anthracnose, is a major threat to mango production worldwide ...

Cucurbit Leaf Crumple Virus: An Important Pathogen of Cucurbit and Snap Bean Crops

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Cucurbit leaf crumple virus (CuLCrV) is an emerging pathogen in the New World. High whitefly abundance and transmission efficiency, mixed infections, weed reservoirs and limited host resistance challenge cucurbit and snap bean production. ABSTRACT Taxonomy Cucurbit leaf crumple virus (CuLCrV); Begomovirus cucurbitae; Geminiviridae; Geplafuvirales ...

Conspecific cueing or cooperative feeding?—Foraging stable flies are visually attracted to conspecific flies

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 512-529, September 2026.
In two‐choice laboratory bioassays, food‐deprived and CO2‐stimulated stable flies were offered paired landing platforms that were baited or not (control) with conspecific flies. The presence of conspecifics prompted the attraction and landing of foraging stable flies.

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 9, Page 5013-5040, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...
