Beyond Current Borders: Modeling the Climate‐Mediated Invasion of Fusarium incarnatum Into New Agricultural Frontiers

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study models the global distribution of Fusarium incarnatum under current and future climate scenarios using MaxEnt and Bioclim approaches. Model projections identify regions of high suitability across temperate and subtropical zones, with consensus between modeling methods indicating the most reliable predictions.

Climate Change Projected to Increase Rates of Background Tree Mortality Across Eastern North America

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
Background tree mortality is the ambient, natural death of trees that occurs without major disturbances. Using data from more than 24,000 forest plots across Canada and the United States, we found that warmer temperatures are linked to higher background tree mortality for many common tree species in eastern North America.

Epidemiology of Diplodia Shoot Blight Outbreaks in Pine Forests After Hailstorm Events

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
The analysis of Diplodia shoot blight outbreaks in pine stands following hailstorms showed that the disease seems to follow a monomolecular model, with 80% of canopy damage occurring within 40 days after the hail event. Low accumulated precipitation in the days preceding the hailstorm appeared to predispose stands to outbreaks.

Soil Pathobiome in Agroecosystems and Forests

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
This review synthesises current knowledge on the soil pathobiome across agroecosystems, horticulture, and forests, highlighting how climate change and intensive management disrupt microbial communities and promote pathogen accumulation. It emphasises soil health as a key component of the One Health framework, linking ecosystem, plant, animal, and human

Systematic review of modelling approaches assessing eradication and containment measures for the pinewood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract This Scientific Opinion reviews existing models that assess eradication and containment strategies of the pinewood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. The objective was to characterise modelling approaches, validation data and methods used to investigate possible interventions.
