Whole orchard recycling in California's Central Valley: Benefits, management, and adoption

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Whole orchard recycling (WOR) has become a common practice in California (CA) orchards and vineyards due to declining options for agricultural biomass disposal. WOR is the process by which entire orchards or vineyards are shredded into chips, spread onto the soil surface, and incorporated into the soil before replanting a new crop.

The development of an immunoassay to identify and quantify the two species of the potato Cyst Nematode, G.rostochiensis & G.pallida. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The potato cyst nematodes (PCN) G.rostochiemis (Woll.) and G.pallida (stone) are sedentary endoparasites and serious economic pests of potato crops throughout the temperate world.

Selective Packaging of miR‐22 and miR‐29 Orthologues into Extracellular Vesicles of the Porcine Whipworm Trichuris Suis

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Helminths modulate host immunity, and in this respect, the porcine whipworm Trichuris suis has been explored clinically as an immunotherapy for inflammatory diseases. T. suis secretes a complex mixture of excretory/secretory products (ESP), including extracellular vesicles (EVs), nanosized membranous particles with bioactive cargoes of lipids,

Insect-Parasitic Nematodes Resembling Plant-Parasitic Forms

open access: yes, 1988
Entomo-nematology is a large discipline. Poinar (1975) records 3150 cases of association between nematodes and insects, and there are 1140 entries in Shephard (1974). However, only a small fraction of these nematodes resemble plant-parasitic forms. They are found among Aphelenchida and Tylenchida, and they represent about 450 species distributed among ...

First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...

Plant-parasitic nematodes - small animals, big impact

open access: yes, 2004
Small in size and devastating in impact, nematodes take a vast toll on farming revenues. Their ability to feed may owe more than a little to bacteria - and may also allow us to control them without harmful nematicides.

Edible Insect Allergens: An Emerging Food Safety Challenge

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.
Allergic responses to edible insects arise via two main pathways: cross‐reactivity with homologous arthropod allergens and primary sensitization to edible insect proteins, both leading to IgE‐mediated immune activation. ABSTRACT Edible insects are increasingly promoted as sustainable protein sources; however, their allergenic potential remains a ...

The afterlife of a horizontally transferred gene: Expansion and functional diversification of a C1A peptidase in wild Hordeum species

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) can accelerate plant adaptation, but the evolutionary fate of newly acquired nuclear genes is often unclear. Here, we analyzed a papain‐like cysteine peptidase horizontally transferred from Panicoideae to wild Hordeum (Poaceae). Using chromosome‐level assemblies of 21 diploid Hordeum species, we assessed presence/

Role of steroid compounds in relationship of plants and parasitic nematodes

open access: yesРоссийский паразитологический журнал, 2016
Literature data on steroid metabolism of plant-parasitic nematodes and own research on the feasibility of regulating the number of pathogenic nematodes using plant steroids are presented.
