Fusarium Wilt of Canary Island Date Palm
Unlike most fungal diseases of palms, this disease is very host specific, with the primary host being Phoenix canariensis (Canary Island date palm). It is caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. canariensis.

Rhynchophorus ferrugineus odorant binding protein 8 and odorant binding protein 11 are validated to be involved in the perception of eight host plant volatiles and aggregation pheromone ferrugineol. Abstract BACKGROUND Rhynchophorus ferrugineus, the red palm weevil (RPW), is a key pest that attacks many economically important palm species and that has ...

Fungi associated with the decline and death of Phoenix canariensis in Mexico City
The decline and death of palms (Phoenix canariensis) in Mexico City is a problem that has increased in the last five years, causing the death of more than 500 palms and others with different degrees of damage. The causal agent has not been determined, so the present study aimed to identify the associated fungi of the decline and death of palms (Phoenix

Urbanization of seed dispersal networks. [PDF]
Abstract Rapid urban expansion is affecting the composition of wild communities and creating novel ecosystems worldwide. Seed dispersal is key for ecosystem persistence, particularly in fragmented landscapes. However, generalizations regarding the impacts of urbanization are still difficult due to the lack of studies encompassing the urban matrix.

The methanolic extract of Phoenix pusilla ripened fruits (PPRF) was analyzed through in vitro porcine pancreatic alpha‐amylase (PPAA) inhibition activity assay and gas chromatography–mass‐spectrometry (GC‐MS). The current study suggested that the methanolic extract of PPRF and its phytoconstituents can be considered as potent antidiabetic agents ...

Abstract Aim Oceanic islands possess unique floras with high proportions of endemic species. Island floras are expected to be severely affected by changing climatic conditions as species on islands have limited distribution ranges and small population sizes and face the constraints of insularity to track their climatic niches.

We report a high species richness of up to seven phoretic mite taxa, including five unspecified taxa, actively using the red palm weevil as a host in the first study of these organisms in Portugal. We also found body size‐dependent effects on the coexistence or exclusion of phoretic mite taxa that ultimately determine their distribution patterns on the
