From settler gardens to digital naturalists: human aesthetic preferences and land use changes facilitate the biogeographical expansion of a wild plant–virus interaction

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic facilitation of wild plants based on aesthetic preferences for particular traits can change the biogeography and ecology of natural communities. We use a mixed‐methods socioecological approach to characterize the ways in which humans interact with a common, widely distributed plant and a generalist viral symbiont that induces an ...

Passion Fruit Cultivation: An Approach to Internal Leaf Anatomy

International Journal of Plant Biology
Some species of the genus Passiflora have leaf morphological adaptations that grow to influence the development of the plant in producing areas. Hence, the objective of this work is to quantify and characterize the leaf anatomy of passion fruit species ...

Within‐tree spatial heterogeneity of sap flow velocities and wood properties and its effect on the uncertainty of tree level sap flux estimates

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As forests are important for biodiversity and recreation and provide vital resources globally, it is essential that their health can be accurately monitored, for example, by using sap flow probes to measure tree water uptake. We investigated whether sap flow measurements might differ at various locations within the same tree due to variation in wood ...

Sublethal herbicide exposure alters cotton susceptibility to aphid infestation

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Sublethal herbicide exposure altered cotton susceptibility to aphids. Aphid severity was highest when applications occurred at early vegetative stages and declined as the crop matured. In glasshouse, herbicide effects were dose‐dependent. Abstract BACKGROUND Herbicides remain vital tools for weed control, yet their effects can extend beyond weeds to ...

Methomyl resistance in Dalbulus maidis (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae): selection, inheritance and multiple‐resistance

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The inheritance of methomyl resistance in Dalbulus maidis is autosomal, incompletely dominant and polygenic. No cross‐resistance was found between methomyl and chlorfenapyr, cyantraniliprole and isocycloseram. Abstract BACKGROUND Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor insecticides have been important tools for the management of Dalbulus maidis in Brazil;

Host‐induced silencing of the Minc09294 effector gene impairs Meloidogyne incognita and M. Enterolobii infection

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Host‐induced gene silencing of the effector candidate Minc09294 significantly impairs Meloidogyne incognita parasitism, markedly reducing gall formation, reproduction, and the development of specialized giant cells, with partial cross‐species effects on M.

Absorption and translocation of 14C‐propiconazole associated with two adjuvants in young coffee plants

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Experimental workflow evaluating 14C‐propiconazole absorption and translocation in Coffea arabica with two biodegradable adjuvants, quantified at six post‐application time points using radioscanner and liquid scintillation spectrometry. Abstract BACKGROUND This study evaluated the absorption, translocation and distribution of 14C‐propiconazole applied ...

Epidemiological drivers of turnip yellows virus and its vector Myzus persicae in Australian canola (Brassica napus) systems: a 3‐year study of commercial crops and noncrop vegetation

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A 3‐year study across southern Australia aimed to characterize drivers of infection in the Myzus persicae–turnip yellows virus–Brassica napus pathosystem. Identification of key reservoir hosts and the strong association between earlier sowing and increased disease incidence highlight opportunities for targeted weed management, strategic sowing ...

Influence of natural fibers on physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined the influence of natural fibers on the physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete, in comparison with conventional polypropylene fibers used in cement composites. The fibers were characterized by FTIR and TGA/DSC to assess their composition and thermal stability, and FTIR was also performed after ...
