Kiwifruit bacterial canker in 'Hayward' kiwifruit : the application of observational study design and epidemiological techniques to the study of disease outbreaks affecting plant health : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Veterinary Epidemiology, Institute of Veterinary, Animal and Biomedical Sciences at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]
Bacterial canker of kiwifruit, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) biovar 3, was first recorded in New Zealand in November 2010 and quickly made production of the goldfleshed kiwifruit cultivar, ‘Hort16A’, which is highly susceptible to

ABSTRACT Humanity is dependent on ecosystems and the services they provide, yet unprecedented biodiversity decline continues. Ecosystem service (ES) and natural capital approaches offer a promising framing of the relationship between organisations and ecosystems, although not enough literature exists on their implementation and implications.

Biodiversity Credits: An Overview of the Current State, Future Opportunities, and Potential Pitfalls
ABSTRACT Biodiversity credits are an emerging vehicle for pro‐environmental financing, yet much uncertainty remains around how and when they could boost biodiversity conservation. Here we define what biodiversity credits are and explore impact pathways through a proposed theory of change. Based on evidence from 34 pilot projects and a review of lessons

ABSTRACT This study describes the green synthesis, characterization, and biological evaluation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) obtained from green propolis (AgNPs‐PRO). Before nanoparticles synthesis, a hydroethanolic green propolis extract (GPE) was obtained through ultrasound‐assisted extraction and characterized by high‐performance liquid ...

Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

ABSTRACT The anatomy, histochemistry, and secondary metabolite composition were investigated on the drupes of Piper malgassicum, one of the components of the spice voatsiperifery pepper. The high amount of piperine recorded with high‐performance liquid chromatography with photodiode‐array detection analysis was localized with histochemistry mainly ...
