Applications of nanocarrier‐delivered RNA interference in agricultural biological control (2009–2025)

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Despite 17 years of development, the effectiveness of nanocarrier‐delivered RNAi pesticide (NDRP) for agricultural biological control remains limited. The successful development of effective NDRP development requires the coordinated optimization of target gene selection and nanocarrier properties, including RNA dosage, multi‐gene targeting, protection ...

M genes as a new frontier in plant protection

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Microbiome genes, or M genes, are host genes involved in shaping microbial communities. In plant protection, microbiome engineering via M genes shows great promise for the development of new production strategies in the face of increasing pathogen pressure.

Water relations and drought sensitivity of Folsomia candida eggs (Collembola: Isotomidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2019
Drought tolerance of juvenile and adult life stages is relatively well understood, but very little is known about the tolerance of eggs to drought in this group of animals. The aim of the present study was therefore to investigate the water relations and

Modelling of permanent wilting point from routine soil properties on a typical alfisol

Peruvian Journal of Agronomy
La capacidad de retención de agua del suelo en el punto de marchitamiento permanente es fundamental para el estrés hídrico de las plantas en un tipo de suelo específico. Este estudio se llevó a cabo para formular un modelo de regresión o ecuación para predecir los puntos de marchitamiento permanente (PWP) de los suelos en un Alfisol típico de origen ...

Development and deployment of a risk assessment index as a decision‐support tool for managing whitefly‐transmitted viruses affecting squash

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A data‐driven framework identified planting date and row cover as dominant drivers of whitefly‐transmitted virus complex (WTVC) risk in squash. Integration into the SquashRx mobile application enables real‐time risk assessment and supports improved decision‐making for integrated pest management.

Effects of compost on water availability and gas exchange in tomato during drought and recovery

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2012
Compost can increase soil water availability and nutrient uptake by plants, but it is not clear whether it can also improve the ability of plants to recover after drought stress. Tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) were grown in sandy soil without

The potential global distribution of Drosophila suzukii, including consideration of irrigation and Australian host cropping areas

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This CLIMEX model of Drosophila suzukii fits the global distribution very well and includes irrigation effects. It indicates that D. suzukii could threaten all Australian berry and cherry production areas if introduced. Abstract BACKGROUND Spotted wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura), is a major fruit fly pest of cherries and berries across ...

Effect of potassium to bivalent cations ratio in irrigation water on some physical and hydraulic properties of sandy loam soil

Soil & Environment, 2019
Cation ratio of soil structural stability (CROSS) was used to evaluate the effects of potassium to calcium and magnesium ratio in irrigation water on soil properties of a sandy loam. For this purpose, a research was performed as a completely randomized
