Optimal strategies for utilizing host plant distributions to slow the spread of plant pests
Containment of invasive species can be made markedly more cost‐effective by prioritizing landscape features that naturally impede spread. Targeting treatments around host‐plant gaps supports a clear operational rule: use mating disruption where densities are low to prevent establishment and concentrate pesticides where densities are high to suppress ...

Functionality Enhancement of Pullulan‐Based Composites for Food Packaging Applications
ABSTRACT Contemporary research in food packaging is focused on developing sustainable alternatives to petroleum‐based materials. Pullulan, a microbial biopolymer traditionally employed as a food additive, is harnessing interest for food packaging applications due to its exceptional film‐forming ability, biodegradability, and nontoxic nature.

Differing Responses to Cryphonectria parasitica at Two Indiana Locations
Chestnut blight, a disease that has spread rampantly among American (Castanea dentata (Marsh.) Borkh.) and European chestnut (C. sativa Mill.) trees, results from infection by the fungal pathogen Cryphonectria parasitica (Murrill) M.E.

ABSTRACT Chrysoporthe cubensis was reported to cause wilting that later progressed to dieback and death in eucalypt mini‐stumps. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of various factors on the in vitro development of C. cubensis and to reproduce the wilting symptoms in eucalypt following artificial inoculation. Conidial production by C.

Toxicity of plant essential oils to Cryphonectria parasitica (Murr.) Barr, the causal agent of chestnut blight [PDF]
Twenty-two essential oil samples from Germany and Albania were assayed to test their inhibitory and fungicidal activity against Cryphonectria parasitica (Murr.) Barr., the major causal agent of chestnut blight on chestnut trees, using the fumigant ...
