Abstract Three polyphagous agromyzid leafminers, Liriomyza sativae Blanchard, Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) and Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess), have recently invaded mainland Australia, posing a threat to horticultural crops. Overseas, these species are often effectively controlled by local hymenopteran parasitoids.

This study compared the traditional cardoon cropping system with the option of temporary intercropping during the first year of cultivation with treatments: Vicia villosa, Eruca sativa, and Camelina sativa. Results show that temporary intercropping reduced weed biomass by 24%, while intercropping with V. villosa increased cardoon yield (in the year II)

Predicting the Impact of Alternative Splicing on Plant MADS Domain Protein Function [PDF]
Several genome-wide studies demonstrated that alternative splicing (AS) significantly increases the transcriptome complexity in plants. However, the impact of AS on the functional diversity of proteins is difficult to assess using genome-wide approaches.

A point mutation in IAA34 confers resistance to the auxin herbicide 2,4‐D in Sisymbrium orientale
A point mutation in domain IV of SoAux/IAA34‐R provides resistance to 2,4‐D. Abstract BACKGROUND Sisymbrium orientale has evolved resistance to 2,4‐D in Australia due to a 27 bp deletion in SoIAA2. However, one population of Sisymbrium orientale resistant to 2,4‐D (R1) did not contain the SoIAA2Δ27, suggesting another 2,4‐D resistance mechanism was ...

The effect of flower position on variation and covariation in floral traits in a wild hermaphrodite plant [PDF]
Background Floral traits within plants can vary with flower position or flowering time. Within an inflorescence, sexual allocation of early produced basal flowers is often female-biased while later produced distal flowers are male-biased.
