2‐Amino‐3H‐phenoxazin‐3‐one is a lead inhibitor of Cuscuta campestris early development: structure–activity relationships of o‐aminophenol‐derived allelochemicals

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Phenoxazinones caused differential types of phytotoxic effects in C. campestris early development. APO is a coherent lead inhibiting C. campestris germination and early seedling growth. Abstract BACKGROUND 2‐Amino‐3H‐phenoxazin‐3‐one (synonym: questiomycin A; abbreviated as APO or Phx‐3) is a naturally occurring phenoxazinone‐type allelochemical with ...

Controlled incubation, leachate, and pot assays of shrimp shell‐based compost for suppressing Verticillium dahliae in olive

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Shrimp shell compost suppresses Verticillium dahliae microsclerotia, enhances chitinase activity, lowers olive wilt severity and improves plant recovery under controlled conditions. Abstract BACKGROUND Verticillium wilt of olive (Olea europaea L.), caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb., is difficult to manage because long‐lived microsclerotia persist in

Harnessing the microbiome to control plant parasitic weeds

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2019
Microbiomes can significantly expand the genomic potential of plants, contributing to nutrient acquisition, plant growth promotion and tolerance to (a)biotic stresses. Among biotic stressors, root parasitic weeds (RPWs), mainly of the genera Orobanche, Phelipanche and Striga, are major yield-limiting factors of a wide range of staple crops ...

Soybean plant architecture influences the capacity of Telenomus podisi to parasitize Euschistus heros eggs: implications for field releases

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Increasing soybean plant architectural complexity reduces the ability of Telenomus podisi to parasitize Euschistus heros eggs, highlighting the need to adjust parasitoid release rates in the field according to plant complexity (arrow direction and thickness correspond to the increasing strength of the variable) . Abstract BACKGROUND Plant architectural

Early warning signals of common vole population growth in continental Mediterranean farmlands recurrently affected by outbreaks

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Rodent outbreaks have significant socio‐economic impacts worldwide, and anticipation is crucial for timely management decisions. We combined rainfall and periodicity data to provide an early warning signal of vole population growth in Mediterranean farmlands, a year in advance of a peak.
