Evaluation of Agave angustifolia as a Sustainable Alternative to Synthetic Pesticides: Phytochemical Composition and Multi‐Trophic Bioactivity

open access: yesFlavour and Fragrance Journal, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 656-672, May 2026.
The pesticidal potential of Agave angustifolia by assessing its anti‐nematic, antimicrobial, and insecticidal activities, alongside phytochemical profiling. ABSTRACT Plant diseases caused by fungi, bacteria, nematodes, and viruses contribute significantly to annual crop losses and economic hardship. Reliance on chemical pesticides, over a thousand used

Burrowing nematodes from Colombia and their relationship with Radopholus similis populations,R. arabocoffeae and R. duriophilus

open access: yes, 2010
Two burrowing nematode populations from Colombia were characterised using morphological, morphometric and molecular criteria. The morphological and morphometric characters of the two populations did not differ from those of Radopholus similis.

The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...

A Review on Biology and Management of Radopholus similis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The burrowing nematode (Radopholus similis) is an amphimictic species characterized by accentuated sexual dimorphism. Burrowing nematode has migratory endoparasitic habits and it develops and reproduces inside plant tissues of host roots.

Banana breeding by genome design

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 67, Issue 11, Page 2816-2847, November 2025.
Bananas and plantains likely originated from hybridizations of four wild Musa species. This review highlights advances in banana genomics, genetics, and breeding, emphasizing genome sequencing breakthroughs and genomic‐assisted tools like selection and gene editing, and explores future prospects for improving key agronomic traits.

IbPIF1 confers stem nematode resistance by regulating secondary metabolites in sweet potato

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, Page 4650-4664, October 2025.
Summary The stem nematode (Ditylenchus destructor Thorne) is a pervasive and destructive plant‐parasitic nematode worldwide, inflicting severe agricultural and economic losses in a wide range of crops. Despite its global impact, the molecular mechanisms underlying plant resistance to this pathogen remain poorly understood. Our previous studies in sweet

Master of Puppets: How Microbiota Drive the Nematoda Ecology and Evolution?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
The nematode microbiota can influence life‐history traits, thereby shaping the species' ecology and evolutionary trajectories. ABSTRACT In recent decades, the microbiota has emerged as a key driver of biological functions in metazoans, and nematodes are no exception.
