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

Pest risk assessment of Spodoptera frugiperda for the European Union
Abstract EFSA was asked for a partial risk assessment of Spodoptera frugiperda for the territory of the EU focussing on the main pathways for entry, factors affecting establishment, risk reduction options and pest management. As a polyphagous pest, five commodity pathways were examined in detail. Aggregating across these and other pathways, we estimate

Pest categorisation of Scirtothrips aurantii
Abstract The Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the South African citrus thrips, Scirtothrips aurantii Faure (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), for the European Union (EU). This is a well‐defined and distinguishable species, recognised as a pest of citrus and mangoes in South Africa, which has been cited on more than 70 different plants ...

EFFECT OF LIQUID SEAWEED EXTRACT ON POTTED GROWTH OF Eustoma grandiflorum (Raf.) Shinners)
Background. The use of liquid algae extract as a biostimulant when applied to leaves or roots, improves crop development and consequently yield, since by stimulating natural processes they benefit from the use of nutrients and increases resistance to ...

Phylogenetic and expression analysis of terpenoid synthase gene family in Eustoma grandiflorum
Terpenoids are one of the main components of floral fragrance, and terpenoid synthase (TPS) plays a key role in the synthesis of terpenoids. In this study, 26 full-length TPS genes were identified using bioinformatics methods, and their molecular ...

Anatomical Analysis of Inflorescence Development in Eustoma Grandiflorum
Inflorescence refers to the spatial and temporal patterns of flowers and analysis of the branching pattern would facilitate understanding of the entire structure of inflorescence. To gain an insight into the inflorescence architecture of Eustoma, the popularity of which has soared worldwide, we conducted a detailed characterization of inflorescence ...

“Metabolight”: how light spectra shape plant growth, development and metabolism
Abstract Innovations in light technologies (i.e. Light Emitting Diodes; LED) and cover films with specific optical features (e.g. photo‐selective, light‐extracting) have revolutionized crop production in both protected environments and open fields.

This study aimed to assess the effects of three plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and chitosan either singly or in combination on maize seeds germination and growth and nutrient uptake. Maize seeds were treated with chitosan and bacterial solution. The germination and growth tests were carried out in square Petri dishes and plastic pots.

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.

Abstract Efficient use of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) is essential to reduce fertilizer costs and nutrient pollution and to lower the carbon footprint of agriculture. This requires a better understanding of N and P limitations on photosynthesis and biomass generation in one of the world's most important crops, wheat (Triticum aestivum).
