Novel applications of the tomato microbiome: Roles and considerations for agriculture, human health, and society

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plants, like humans, have a microbiome that helps them grow, defend themselves against pathogens, acquire nutrients, and protect themselves against environmental stresses. The microbiome of tomatoes, a staple crop grown worldwide, could be utilized not only to reduce fertilizer and pesticide applications, but also to clean up harmful pollutants ...

Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

Conned by the enemy: the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae lures and kills Drosophila suzukii

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Highly pathogenic isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae attracted Drosophila suzukii. Identifying the responsible compounds for this attraction could help the development of these isolates for pest monitoring and overall pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Drosophila suzukii, commonly known as spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is a highly invasive and ...

Deep Learning–Driven Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering–Lateral Flow Immunoassay With Au Nanostars for High‐Accuracy Respiratory Virus Detection

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The high accuracy in surface‐enhanced Raman scattering‐lateral flow immunoassays (SERS–LFIAs) is critical for reliable point‐of‐care testing (POCT) in clinical diagnostics. Conventional approaches are often affected by sampling variability and uneven distribution of immunoprobes, leading to unreliable signal fluctuations.

Filomicelle‐Embedded Composite Hydrogels for Localized Gelation Within the Anterior Chamber of the Eye

Small, EarlyView.
A composite hydrogel (C‐gel) incorporating PEG‐b‐PPS filomicelles enables localized in situ gelation and sustained nanocarrier release within the anterior chamber. The filamentous structure promotes spatial confinement of multi‐arm polymer crosslinking, even upon injection into large aqueous volumes, and gradually transitions into spherical micelles ...
