A quickscan pest risk analysis for the Meloidogyne mali

Interdepartmental Thematic Scientific Collection of Plant Protection and Quarantine, 2016
A quickscan pest risk analysis for the apple root-knot nematode Meloidogyne mali for the territory of Ukraine was performed. This assessment was initiated in response to the recent (2012/2013) interception of the apple root-knot nematode in the Netherlands and Italy and because of the species inclusion on the EPPO Alert List in 2014.

An eco-epidemiological model with prey-taxis and slow diffusion: Global existence, boundedness and novel dynamics [PDF]

arXiv
In this manuscript, an attempt has been made to understand the effects of prey-taxis on the existence of global-in-time solutions and dynamics in an eco-epidemiological model, particularly under the influence of slow dispersal characterized by the $p$-Laplacian operator and enhanced mortality of the infected prey, subject to specific assumptions on the

Manipulation of Chemistry and Biology with Visible Light Using Tetra‐ortho‐Substituted Azobenzenes and Azonium Ions

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Tetra‐ortho‐Azobenzenes (TOABs) in broad daylight: in recent years, TOAB photoswitches became indispensable tools for all‐visible‐light manipulation of chemistry, biology and materials. This review explores their unique photochemical properties, design and synthetic approaches, offering support in choosing a TOAB for a given application.
