Nematode Management in Cucurbits (Cucumber, Melons, Squash)

open access: yesEDIS, 2002
Plant-parasitic nematodes are small microscopic roundworms that live in the soil and attack the roots of plants. Crop production problems induced by nematodes therefore generally occur as a result of root dysfunction; nematodes reduce rooting volume and

Cucurbit Grafting

open access: yesCritical Reviews in Plant Sciences, 2008
[EN] Due to limited availability of arable land and high market demand for off-season vegetables, cucurbits (plants in the family Cucurbitaceae) are continuously cultivated under unfavorable conditions in some countries. These conditions include environments that are too cold, wet, or dry, or are cool low-light winter greenhouses.

Designing Tailored Molecular Cavities Using Calix[5]arenes as Building Blocks

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
This account focuses on the shape and dimensions of cavities formed by precisely designed molecular frameworks. It highlights our efforts to construct synthetically tailored cavities based on calix[5]arenes. This study examines the shapes and dimensions of cavities defined by well‐designed molecular structures.

Attractiveness of Melon Genotypes to Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) Mediated by Foliar Morphological and Biochemical Traits

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study identifies melon genotypes resistant to Bemisia tabaci by integrating morphological and biochemical leaf traits. Using free‐choice and no‐choice assays, we demonstrate that resistance is primarily mediated by antixenosis. Genotypes CNPH 11‐1071‐43, CNPH 06‐1047‐343, CNPH 13‐1076, and BG MEL 16 significantly reduced whitefly settling and ...

Anastrepha grandis: Distribution, Host Plants, and Management—A Review

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This graphic summary illustrates the databases and languages used in the bibliographic search for the review of the geographic distribution of Anastrepha grandis (Diptera: Tephritidae) in the Americas and different regions of Brazil, the main host plants of the Cucurbitaceae family, the management strategies used, and the main challenges related to the

Cartographic Representation of Averaged Pairwise Information (CRAPI): a new exploratory tool to investigate spatial structures illustrated with genetic data from the Watermelon mosaic virus. [O.15] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Dedicated analyses in landscape genetics require a priori knowledge on species dispersal abilities. When little is known about the species under study these methods are difficult to apply and, therefore, we rely on exploratory approaches allowing to ...

Drought Stress Promotes Aphis gossypii Growth but Decreases Host Attractiveness in Melon

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought stress is a significant environmental factor that affects plant physiology and growth, leading to considerable detrimental effects on crop productivity. Cucumis melo, which is widely cultivated for its economic value, is particularly susceptible to water scarcity.

Development of an Artificial Liquid Diet for Allelochemical Delivery in Lycorma delicatula

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula White (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), is an invasive phloem‐feeding planthopper native to Asia, which poses a growing threat to US agriculture due to its broad host range and rapid spread since its 2014 detection. To better understand how L.

Performance of augmentorium as a sanitation technique against fruit flies (Diptera: tephritidae) in Reunion Island [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background. Tephritid fruit flies cause severe damage to fruit and vegetable crops in Reunion Island. Instead of the curative approach to reduce existing populations, the first step proposed for their management is sanitation.
