Optimizing Sampling and Extraction Methods for Plant-Parasitic and Entomopathogenic Nematodes

Plants, 2021
Plant-parasitic and entomopathogenic nematodes (PPNs and EPNs) are key groups in crop production systems. This study aims at optimizing nematode sampling and extraction methods to benefit integrated pest management (IPM) through (a) management of PPNs ...

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

The integration of nematode communities into the soil biological health framework by factor analysis

Ecological Indicators, 2022
A critique of the soil health framework is that biological indicators currently lag behind chemical and physical indicators of soil health. Incorporating nematode communities into the soil health framework could help to better reflect key aspects of soil

Estuarine benthic diversity declines with temperature across a tropical–temperate gradient

Ecography, EarlyView.
Estuarine benthic sediments are important habitats that support ecosystem health and productivity, but the drivers of large‐scale patterns in benthic diversity are not well documented. Using 18S amplicon sequencing of 425 sediment DNA samples from estuaries spanning 20° of latitude along Australia's east coast, we assessed tropical–temperate patterns ...

Control de la pudrición apical del fruto y secamiento del árbol mediante manejo integral del cultivo del guayabo (psidium guajava l.) Control of stylar end rot and plant wilting by integrated pest management in guava (Psidium guajava L. )

Bioagro, 2003
El cultivo del guayabo tiene un gran potencial en el estado Zulia; sin embargo, el manejo que se le da al cultivo parece ser una de las principales causas de los bajos rendimientos. En este estudio se evaluó una forma integrada de prácticas agronómicas y

Bridging the Gap Between Human Toxicology and Ecotoxicology Under One Health Perspective by a Cross‐Species Adverse Outcome Pathway Network for Reproductive Toxicity

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Cross‐species extrapolation of adverse outcome pathway network on reproductive toxicity under the One Health perspective using new approach methodologies. AOP = adverse outcome pathway. Abstract Although ecotoxicological and toxicological risk assessments are performed separately from each other, recent efforts have been made in both disciplines to ...

Biological control agents in the integrated nematode management of potato in Egypt

Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2020
Background Potato represents Egypt’s largest vegetable export crop. Many plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) are globally inflicting damage to potato plants. In Egypt, their economic significance considerably varies according to PPN distribution, population
