The first record of light brown apple moth, Epiphyas postvittana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), in Australian almonds

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Light brown apple moth, Epiphyas postvittana (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), is a major pest of fruit crops, ornamentals and horticultural crops around the world. It is known to feed on over 70 plant species in Australia, where it is native, yet has never been recorded in almonds (Prunus amygdalus Batsch) (Rosales: Rosaceae) in this ...

Current and future global distribution of the peach twig borer, Anarsia lineatella Zeller (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 94-107, February 2026.
Biological invasions and climate change drive species redistribution, threatening biodiversity, agriculture, and public health. Species distribution modelling (Maxent algorithm) predicted Anarsia lineatella current and future global range, identifying risk areas in Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Americas under changing climate conditions.

Persimmon carotenoid extract rich in β‐cryptoxanthin improves glucose homeostasis and reduces liver damage in high‐fat‐diet‐induced type 2 diabetic and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease mice

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 2, Page 1299-1313, 30 January 2026.
Abstract Background Persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) byproducts are a remarkable source of bioactive compounds, particularly carotenoids. Several studies suggest that carotenoids have beneficial effects in prevention of a large number of diseases. This study aims to highlight the effects of a persimmon carotenoid extract (PSCE) rich in β‐cryptoxanthin

Epidemiology of Monilinia laxa, the causal agent of blossom blight in almond orchards within the Ebro Valley

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 228-240, January 2026.
Blossom blight caused by Monilinia laxa in almond orchards in the Ebro Valley. Early stages of mummified fruiting structures infected by M. laxa frequently adhered to branches. Later stages of mummified fruiting structures were predominantly on the ground.

Sensory profiles of various stored fruit species are affected by maturity class assessed by time-resolved reflectance spectroscopy at harvest [PDF]

, 2015
The absorption coefficient measured at harvest at 670 nm (μa670) by timeresolved reflectance spectroscopy (TRS) is a non-destructive maturity index used to evaluate the biological age of fruit, i.e., the fruit maturity stage.

Natural variations in MdBPM2/MdRGLG3‐MdNAC83 network controlling the quantitative segregation of apple fruit storability

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 169-190, January 2026.
During postharvest cold storage of apples, the NAC transcription factor MdNAC83 binds to the promoters and activates the expression of downstream genes and is regulated by E3 ligases, which promote its ubiquitination and degradation. Genetic variants in MdNAC83 and its downstream genes form a network to regulate apple fruit storability.

Research on the Production Process of Fresh Rabat Fruit Soaked in Canned Syrup

International Journal of Food Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum) is a nutritious tropical fruit but has a short shelf life, making it difficult to commercialize. This study is aimed at optimizing the production process of canned rambutan in syrup by examining the input material parameters such as pH, Brix, total sugar (TS), antioxidant capacity (DPPH), vitamin C, and polyphenol content.
