Alteration of plant species mixtures by virus infection: Managed pastures the forgotten dimension
Plant Pathology, Volume 71, Issue 6, Page 1255-1281, August 2022., 2022 This review seeks to highlight the major contribution made by past studies in managed pasture towards understanding the impacts of virus infection on the species balance in mixed plant species systems. Abstract What occurs when virus infection is spreading within a mixed plant species population?

Forage conservation in sub‐Saharan Africa: Review of experiences, challenges, and opportunities
Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 1, Page 75-99, January/February 2022., 2022 Abstract Forage conservation is an important potential solution to seasonal variation in feed quality and quantity and herder‐farmer conflicts in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). Considerable variations exist in the type of forages conserved and the preservation methods across SSA. Hay from cultivated forages is commonly made with mechanical mowers and balers

New Insights into the Taxonomy of Bacteria in the Genomic Era and a Case Study with Rhizobia
International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Since early studies, the history of prokaryotes taxonomy has dealt with many changes driven by the development of new and more robust technologies. As a result, the number of new taxa descriptions is exponentially increasing, while an increasing number of others has been subject of reclassification, demanding from the taxonomists more effort to ...

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 This experiment was conducted with the objective of evaluating the effects of intercropping vetch species and harvesting age on the morphological characteristics, forage yield, and chemical composition of sole and intercropped forages. The experiment was laid out using a randomized complete block design (RCBD) in a factorial arrangement consisting of ...

Predicting and managing plant invasions on offshore islands
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 3, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021 Abstract Resources for biodiversity conservation are limited and it is therefore imperative that management actions that have the best chance of success are prioritized. Non‐native species (NNS) are one of the key problems facing biodiversity conservation, so understanding how NNS disperse and establish can inform more effective conservation planning ...

Pest categorisation of the non‐EU phytoplasmas of tuber‐forming Solanum spp.
EFSA Journal, Volume 18, Issue 12, December 2020., 2020 Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of four phytoplasmas of tuber‐forming Solanum spp. known to occur only outside the EU or having a limited presence in the EU. The only tuber‐forming species of Solanum reported to be phytoplasma infected is S. tuberosum.

Biological Reviews, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 1442-1466, October 2020., 2020 ABSTRACT Although most plants produce all of their fruits (seeds) aboveground, amphicarpic species produce fruits (seeds) both above‐ and belowground. Our primary aims were to determine the number of reported amphicarpic species and their taxonomic, geographic, life form and phylogenetic distribution, to evaluate differences in the life history of ...

EFSA Journal, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2020., 2020 Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of nine phytoplasmas of Cydonia Mill., Fragaria L., Malus Mill., Prunus L., Pyrus L., Ribes L., Rubus L. and Vitis L. (hereafter “host plants”) known to occur only outside the EU or having a limited presence in the EU.
