Managing pests by increasing predators through late termination of cover crops
Adding cover crops to crop rotations can improve the sustainability and ecosystem functioning of agroecosystems. By delaying cover‐crop termination, growers can effectively increase natural enemy populations and reduce the need for chemical controls. Abstract BACKGROUND Adding cover crops to crop rotations can improve the sustainability and ecosystem ...

Uncertainty surrounding the mechanism and safety of the post-harvest fungicide fludioxonil [PDF]
Fludioxonil is a phenylpyrrole pesticide that is applied to fruit and vegetable crops post-harvest to minimize losses to mold, both during transport and at point of sale. Its effectiveness is reflected in the dramatic increase in its production/usage since its introduction in 1994, an increase that has peaked in recent years as it became licenced for ...

ABSTRACT Phytophthora sojae is an oomycete responsible for causing seedling damping‐off and root and stem rot in soybean. Seed treatment with chemical products is one of the management strategies that can be used to control the disease. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the in vitro sensitivity of P.

The Variability of Fungicide Efficacy
Analysing the data set generated by AHDB in the fungicide performance trials project, covering 25 years and 3–6 sites, we find that (i) intrinsic differences between the fungicide modes of action analysed do not affect the variability in efficacy, (ii) intrinsic differences between the pathogens analysed do not affect the efficacy variability, and (iii)

Molecular Identification of Stromatinia cepivora Causing White Rot in Allium Species and Evaluation of Fungicide Efficacy [PDF]
White rot of Allium crops is a soil-borne disease in which sclerotia play a crucial role in pathogen survival and infection. This study aimed to re-identify the causal agent of white rot isolated from garlic and chives and to evaluate the effects of ...

Abstract BACKGROUND The control of fungal diseases in organic fruit production remains a major challenge due to the limited availability of authorized phytosanitary tools. This study evaluates the efficacy of two antagonistic yeasts – Metschnikowia pulcherrima L672 and Hanseniaspora uvarum L793 – in organic peach ( Prunus persica ) and plum ( Prunus ...
