Quantification of Ethanedinitrile in Air Using a New and Accurate Gas Chromatography Method

open access: yesMethods and Protocols, 2018
Compared to previously tested fumigants such as methyl bromide, sulfuryl fluoride and phosphine; ethanedinitrile (EDN) is a new fumigant which is being trialled around the world as a pre-plant soil treatment and as a quarantine and pre-shipment (QPS ...

Monitoring of Long-Lasting Effects of Fumigation with Dimethyl Disulfide (DMDS) on Root-Gall Index, Root-Knots, Other Nematode Populations, and Crop Yield over Three Protected Cucumber Crops in Bulgaria

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
In order to evaluate the long-term effect of the new fumigant DMDS and its potential to be a part of IPM of root-knot nematodes, a two-year experiment was conducted on cucumber in a greenhouse in Bulgaria.

Isolates of the Nematophagous Fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia Are Endophytic in Banana Roots and Promote Plant Growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The biocontrol fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia colonizes banana roots endophytically. Root hairs and root surface were colonized by a stable GFP (green fluorescent protein) transformant of the fungus.

Selecting Promising Soil Quality Indicators for Monitoring Soil Management Effects Based on 10 European Long‐Term Field Experiments

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Soil quality can be measured through soil quality indicators that reflect soil processes. Aim: The aim of this study was to (1) identify a limited set of soil quality indicators that are most sensitive to agricultural soil management and that are widely applicable regardless of pedo‐climatic conditions, and (2) link common ...

Control of Meloidogyne incognita in sweetpotato with fluensulfone

open access: yesJournal of Nematology, 2019
In California, sweetpotato is mostly grown on light sandy soils in Merced County. Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) can reduce sweetpotato yields and quality. Fluensulfone is the active ingredient of the new non-fumigant nematicide Nimitz.

Effects of Biochar and Maize Roots on CO2 Emissions and Microbial Biomass C in Loess Soils

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Refractory substances such as biochar and labile substances such as dead fine and coarse roots play important roles in soil organic matter dynamics and have key ecological functions. However, interactions between these substances have only rarely been studied.

Germplasm identification of bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and lettuce ( Lactuca sativa L.) resistant to avirulent populations of Meloidogyne spp. to Mi gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Phytoparasitic nematodes of the genus Meloidogyne spp. are the cause of important losses in horticulture. In recent years, plant resistance has been used to reduce this damage in a sustainable way.

Accelerated Microbial Degradation of Nematicides in Vineyard and Orchard Soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Accelerated microbial degradation (AMD) of organophosphate and carbamate nematicides is aphenomenon whereby biodegradation in the soil is increased, leading to a dramatically shortenedpersistence of nematicides.

Biochar‐Induced Shifts in Fungal Community Structure and Their Association With Soil Physical Properties in Degraded Soil From the Brazilian Semiarid

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil degradation compromises ecosystem functioning. Biochar, a carbon‐rich amendment, has gained attention as a promising strategy to enhance soil structure and restore microbial balance. This study investigated the effects of two biochars, cashew bagasse biochar (CBB) and a co‐pyrolyzed biochar produced from sewage sludge and cashew pruning ...
