Postharvest Disease Control of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Penicillium expansum on Stored Apples by Gamma Irradiation Combined with Fumigation

The Plant Pathology Journal, 2016
To study the control of postharvest decay caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Penicillium expansum, gamma irradiation alone or in combination with fumigation was evaluated to extend the shelf life of apples in South Korea. An irradiation dose of

Long‐Term Management Shapes Soil Microbial Communities Primarily Through Modulating Soil Habitat Quality in Swiss Croplands

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities are key drivers of soil functioning in agricultural systems. Yet the relative influence of soil properties and cropping practices on their diversity remains insufficiently understood. We investigated 60 cropland sites in western Switzerland, covering a broad range of soil properties and cropping practices, to explore

Web-based phosphine fumigation monitoring with active sensor validation confirms lethality in stored grains

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018
The predominant measurement technologies for fumigation gases over the past 60 years include colorimetric tubes, photoionization detectors, and electrochemical sensors. Their limitations and inaccuracies are well documented.

A conceptual model for the diapause intensity curve and termination in overwintering Japanese pine sawyer larvae, Monochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 226-236, June 2026.
Larval diapause intensity of Monochamus alternatus follows a declining curve, beginning with an initial refractory phase and reaching termination after approximately 110 days of chilling at 9°C. Residual inhibitory state strongly influenced post‐chilling development; additional chilling shortened the diapause period more at 18°C than at warmer ...

Brassica biofumigation cover crops in US agroecosystems: A systematic review of research from 2014 to 2024

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Mode of action of non-fumigant nematicides

, 1987
Passant en revue la plupart des études réalisées en vingt ans (1966-1986) sur le mode d’action des nématicides non-fumigants, l’auteur s’efforce de mettre au jour la progression des connaissances des effets biologiques et biochimiques des anticholinestérasiques (organo-phosphorés, carbamates) d’une part et des benzimidazoles d’autre part.

Enhancing Stored Wheat Shelf Life: Advances in Storage Technologies, Integrated Pest Management, and Climate‐Responsive Approaches

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent advances in agricultural production and storage systems have contributed to a significant enhancement in annual wheat production and preservation, aimed at satisfying increasing consumer demands. Despite such potential developments, there are still significant post‐harvest losses in stored wheat, induced by destructive pests, grain ...

Incorporating soil biological and functional attributes to advance ecological restoration

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 735-746, May 2026.
Earth is currently experiencing a mass extinction crisis, predominantly driven by anthropogenic activities, with land use change causing widespread loss and degradation of native ecosystems and indigenous species. There is an urgent need to halt this trend and restore degraded habitat to preserve biodiversity and protect threatened plants and animals ...
