Insect–microbe interactions and their influence on organisms and ecosystems
Insect‐symbiont interactions can have a variety of impacts on organisms and the ecosystem. These multitrophic interactions can result in differential attraction of beneficial insects or natural enemies. Additinoally, these interactions can influence plant and/or soil health as well as microbiome composition.

In summary, we found that landscape‐scale crop diversity impacts plant virus prevalence at spatial scales of >1 km. This suggests that potato growers could reduce PVY prevalence by geographically isolating potato fields from other potato or other PVY hosts.

Estimating perennial crop supply response: A methodology literature review
Abstract Perennial crops are important both economically and as a component of a healthy and nutritious diet (e.g., many fruits and nuts). However, the study of perennial crop production and farmer response to output price changes (i.e., supply response) is complex thanks to the dynamic nature of investment and decision making in these industries.

Abstract Olive psyllid, Euphyllura straminea Loginova has been reported as a key pest of olive in Iran. Field observations have shown that infestation rate of various olive cultivars to olive psyllid are different. This study aimed to determine the levels of total phenol and 3, 4-dihydroxyphenylethanol (DHPE), as well as the horticultural ...
