Techniques for distributing non‐fumigant nematicides in soil to control potato cyst‐nematodes, Globodera rostochiensis and G. pallida

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, 1981
SUMMARYPotato cyst‐nematodes can be controlled and potato yields increased by applying aldicarb or oxamyl in vertical bands 12.5 or 25 cm apart in the top 15 cm of infested soil and incorporating it by rotary harrowing. This new ‘Vertical Band‐Roterra’ technique spreads the nematicides almost as uniformly in the soil as does spreading them on the soil ...

PbrIDD2‐PbrAPX14 Module Functions in the Ethylene‐Mediated Ripening and Senescence Process of Pear Fruit

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endogenous H2O2 participated in the ethylene‐dependent ripening and senescence process of horticultural fruit as a secondary messenger; however, the molecular mechanism beneath such a phenomenon has not been fully clarified until recently. By a conjoint analysis of metabolite, enzyme activities, gene expression profiles in AsA‐GSH cycle of ...

Living in the Mycelial World

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...
