Antioxidant processes involving epicatechin decreased symptoms of pine wilt disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Since the pine wood nematode (PWN, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) invasion of Northeast China, both symptomatic and asymptomatic PWN carriers have been found. Asymptomatic PWN carriers, which are more dangerous than symptomatic carriers, constitute a source

CRISPR-based diagnostics detects invasive insect pests

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, 2023
AbstractRapid identification of organisms is essential across many biological and medical disciplines, from understanding basic ecosystem processes and how organisms respond to environmental change, to disease diagnosis and detection of invasive pests. CRISPR-based diagnostics offers a novel and rapid alternative to other identification methods and can
