Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

Attraction of cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) to host plant odors
Oilseed rape (Brassica napus, OSR) cultivation in Europe is threatened by the cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala, CSFB). Limited management options due to resistance and environmental concerns necessitate innovative control strategies. This study explores CSFB responses to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by host and non‐host ...

Detection of refuge from enemies through phenological mismatching in multitrophic interactions requires season-wide estimation of host abundance [PDF]
The concept of ‘‘enemy-free space’’ (EFS) refers to ways of living that reduce or eliminate the vulnerability of a species to natural enemies. It has been invoked to explain host shifts of phytophagous insects.

Spectrum of the pests on cereal crops and influence of soil fertilisation
Our research was realised on spring barley and winter wheat in Nitra-Dolná Malanta during 2004-2006. We found that the total occurrence of the pests had decreasing tendency.

Intercropping mitigates incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex
Intercropping reduces the incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex with a significant impact of the direct visual and physical disruption provided by the companion plant. Abstract BACKGROUND Oilseed rape (OSR, Brassica napus) is a major crop requiring numerous phytosanitary treatments.
