Comparing verbenone‐based repellents for ambrosia beetle management in eastern apple orchards

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Non‐native ambrosia beetles (Xylosandrus germanus, X. crassiusculus, Anisandrus maiche) damage high‐density apple orchards across the eastern United States, motivating the search for selective, semiochemical‐based repellent strategies. Across Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania, three verbenone formulations, sachets, SPLAT® VERB and a test SPLAT ...

Sequencing and Analysis of the Pseudomonas fluorescens GcM5-1A Genome: A Pathogen Living in the Surface Coat of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
It is known that several bacteria are adherent to the surface coat of pine wood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus), but their function and role in the pathogenesis of pine wilt disease remains debatable.

Ethnomedicinal Uses of Thai Legumes (Fabaceae) and Their Potential in Industrial Applications

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Thai legumes (Fabaceae) are rich sources of bioactive phytochemicals, including saponins, flavonoids, biochanin A, and daidzein. These compounds contribute to diverse ethnomedicinal properties, including antioxidant, antiviral, anti‐inflammatory, anticancer, and cardioprotective activities.

Mechanistic role of biochar as a geobiochemical amendment: Mitigating abiotic stress and enhancing soil–plant interactions

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Abiotic stressors, including drought, salinity, and heavy metal contamination, pose escalating threats to global food security, challenges further exacerbated by climate change and progressive soil degradation. As a strategic geochemical amendment, biochar is increasingly proposed to enhance soil resilience and agricultural sustainability ...

Genetic insights into bacterial wilt resistance using genomic prediction and association mapping in blueberry

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia spp., poses a major threat to blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) production due to its persistence and rapid spread through soil and infected stock, highlighting the need for genetic insights to guide breeding strategies. This study investigated the genetic basis of bacterial wilt resistance in blueberry using

Forty‐Seven Years of Tree Census Data at the Botanical Gardens of Osaka Metropolitan University, Japan

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
The botanical gardens of Osaka Metropolitan University (OMU botanical gardens) have a unique study site, which exhibits 11 types of Japanese forests for more than 60 years. Here, we report tree census data measured at this “forest types common‐garden‐experiment” which consists of five evergreen forests, three deciduous forests, and three coniferous ...
