First report in Italy of Thrips parvispinus (Karny, 1922) (Thysanoptera, Thripidae), a major threat for Sicilian horticulture and floriculture

EPPO Bulletin, Volume 56, Issue 1, Page 130-137, April 2026.
Abstract The presence of Thrips parvispinus (Karny, 1922) is reported for the first time in Italy. Prior to this finding, within Europe the pest was only known to be established in Spain. The discovery happened in a greenhouse cultivating gerberas in south‐eastern Sicily, a region recognized as Italy's primary and one of Europe's most important ...

First Report of Tomato yellow leaf curl virus Infecting Tomato, Tomatillo, and Peppers in Guatemala

Plant Disease, 2010
In Guatemala and other Central American countries, whitefly-transmitted geminiviruses (begomoviruses) cause economically important diseases of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and pepper (Capsicum annuum). Disease symptoms include stunted and distorted growth and leaf curling, crumpling, light green to yellow mosaic, purpling, and vein swelling.

Tobamoviruses CP Proteins Hijack Light‐Induced Protein (NbLIP1) to Promote Viral Replication by Facilitating VRO Formation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2419-2438, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Tobamoviruses establish viral replication organelles (VROs) on the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for their replication, a process demanding substantial different types of lipids. However, how viruses efficiently transfer these lipids from other compartments like chloroplasts remains incompletely understood.

Defense heterosis as a novel plant protection strategy: From theory to breeding practice

New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Defense heterosis, the enhanced disease resistance of hybrids compared to their parents, has evolved from early observations of hybrid vigor to a novel research concept. Advances are now clarifying its diverse genetic and molecular mechanisms across various plant–pathogen interactions.

Identification and Genome Characterization of Begomovirus and Satellite Molecules Associated with Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) Leaf Curl Disease

Plants
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) plants showing leaf curl and vein enation symptoms were found in Yunnan province, China. PCR detection with genus-specific primers revealed that symptomatic lettuce plants were infected with Begomovirus.

The combined effects of Golden2‐like 2 and Pseudo‐Response Regulator 2 control the fruit pigmentation in pepper

The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 5, March 2026.
SUMMARY Fruit pigmentation mainly controlled by chlorophyll, carotenoids, and flavonoids is an important phenomenon for fortifying the nutritional and esthetic value of humans. Our previous study identified Pseudo‐Response Regulator 2 (PRR2) as a regulator of fruit pigmentation through its association with the c1 locus.
