Optimal claim behaviour for third-party liability insurances with perfect information [PDF]
In this paper we analyse the optimal claim behaviour of a policy holder having a third-party liability insurance in which one is allowed to decide at the end of an insurance year which damages occurred during that year should be claimed.

Lecanicillium aphanocladii: a biocontrol agent against insect pests and phytopathogens
Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4089-4103, May 2026.Recent research findings on the biocontrol potential of Lecanicillium aphanocladii fungus against insect‐pests and plant diseases were highlighted. This review indicates that several L. aphanocladii strains show great potential to be developed as multipurpose biocontrol agents active against several insect‐pests, plant diseases and plant parasitic ...

Modern approaches for breeding high quality apples with durable resistance to scab, powdery mildew and fire blight [PDF]
, 2008 New methods to allow for more precise selection of tree and fruit characters in breeding programmes were developed in recent years. Marker-assisted selection (MAS) is common practice in the ACW apple breeding programme at Wädenswil.

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT The Australian Crop Mirid (ACM), Sidnia kinbergi Stål (Hemiptera: Miridae), is highly polyphagous and is endemic to Australia. It is widely distributed across Australia and New Zealand and feeds on a wide range of agricultural crops. ACM has traditionally been a pest of forage crops and legumes but has recently emerged as a key pest of several

Evolution of crop phenotypic spaces through domestication
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1948-1963, May 2026.Summary We used domestication as an in vivo replicated experiment to investigate how divergent selection has shaped the evolution of multivariate phenotypic spaces. We measured 11–57 qualitative and quantitative traits in 13 species, either unique or shared between species, and established a framework for cross‐species comparisons. Our results revealed

WRKY Transcription Factors: Integral Regulators of Defence Responses to Biotic Stress in Crops
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2939-2955, May 2026.ABSTRACT Crops are continually challenged by biotic stresses, including fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens and insect pests, which cause substantial yield and quality losses worldwide. WRKY transcription factors constitute a plant‐specific and functionally diverse family that is central to immune regulation.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3012-3031, May 2026.ABSTRACT Low temperature is a critical abiotic stress that imposes major constraints on the sustainable development of the fruit tree industry. Although exogenous dopamine has been shown to enhance cold tolerance in plants, its molecular mechanisms in apple (Malus domestica) remain poorly understood.
