A Review on Drip Irrigation System

INTERANTIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH IN ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT
Irrigation can be defined as the process of applying artificial water to soil or land in order to promote the growth of agricultural crops such as corn and wheat. Water irrigation has a number of advantages,including an increase in crop yield, protection against famine, revenue generation, and the avoidance of mixed cropping.

Field resistance of orange fruit to citrus black spot and citrus canker in D‐limonene synthase downregulated trees

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2949-2959, April 2026.
Genetically modified (GM) sweet‐oranges with downregulated CitMTSE1 gene showed reduced citrus black spot severity and citrus canker incidence, confirming terpene modulation as a promising strategy for sustainable field citrus disease resistance. Abstract BACKGROUND Citrus black spot (CBS), caused by Phyllosticta citricarpa, and citrus canker (CC ...

How effective are entomopathogenic nematodes for vine weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) biological control? A meta‐analysis

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3427-3438, April 2026.
Entomopathogenic nematodes provide reliable biological control of vine weevil larvae, reducing populations by 63% on average. All five tested species are effective, with temperature (18–30 °C) being the strongest predictor of success. Abstract BACKGROUND Vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) is a globally important pest of soft fruit and ornamental crops

Climate Change Impacts on Hydrology in the Upper James Watershed, Virginia

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydrological modeling of the Upper James Watershed (UJW), Virginia, is critical for predicting water availability, flood management, agriculture, ecosystem protection, and hydropower production under increasing climate change. The Hydrologic Engineering Center–Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC‐HMS) is applied to evaluate climate change impacts ...

Pollinator Visitation Alters Cranberry Flower Fungal Communities in Wisconsin Cranberry Agroecosystems

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
A two‐year study reveals shared fungal communities between cranberry flowers and insect visitors, including Apis mellifera, Bombus species, solitary bees and hover flies. Greater fungal richness was present in pollinator‐accessible flowers compared to those that were tented.

When Numbers Mean Money: Pest Precision Sampling in High‐Density Mango Crops

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 3, Page 333-339, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The development of sampling plans is essential for assertive decision‐making in integrated pest management programs. The present study aimed to develop a plan for monitoring major mango pests in high‐density mango crops in Brazil. For this purpose, the influence of the position of the branch to be sampled in the canopy (internal and external ...

Interactive effects of high planting density and drought on physiological traits and yield in tomato

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 5, Page 2648-2655, 30 March 2026.
Abstract Background This study investigated the combined effects of high planting density and drought stress on morpho‐physiological traits, yield, and fruit quality in tomato plants. The research addresses knowledge gaps in plant responses to multiple concurrent stressors and explores strategies for maximizing yield per cultivation area under water ...
