Recent Advances in Biology, Epidemiology and Host Resistance to Potato Powdery Scab

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
This review highlights recent advances in understanding powdery scab and potato resistance, providing new perspectives for developing durable and integrated strategies to manage the disease. ABSTRACT Powdery scab of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) is caused by the soil‐borne protist Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea (Sss).

A Soil Probe System to Evaluate Weed Seed Survival in Soil Disinfestation Trials

open access: yes, 2017
Weed seed viability is an important parameter to assess the efficacy of soil disinfestation methods like fumigation and steam. In field experiments, seed samples are commonly placed in permeable bags and buried at several depths in soil before the ...

Effect of temperature on growth and development of rice weevil [Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)] on polished rice

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Rice weevils (Sitophilus oryzae), a major storage pest, cause both qualitative and quantitative losses of stored grains. Normally, chemical insecticide along with fumigation is practiced for the management, but it creates health hazards. So, this study investigates the effects of temperature and duration of exposure on rice weevils. Completely

Comparative efficacy of seed biopriming and soil drenching with Bacillus altitudinis TM22 and Bacillus atrophaeus MCM61 on the suppression of Fusarium wilt of cotton

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2424-2445, March 2026.
Co‐application of Bacillus strains TM22 and MCM61 suppressed Fusarium wilt of cotton. Seed biopriming with Bacillus strains performed better than soil drenching. TM22 + MCM61 improved vegetative and physiological aspects in cotton plants. TM22 + MCM61 enhanced the activity of defense enzymes and defense gene expression.

A solar collector for soil disinfestation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A solar collector to be used for disinfestation of substrates for plant propagation is described. At a high solar radiation intensity, one day of treatment was sufficient for disinfestation of soil infested with Sclerotium rolfsii, Sclerotiorum, Fusarium

Organic intercropping legacy reduces Fusarium pathogens and root rot in subsequent durum wheat

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Intercropping is a sustainable practice becoming increasingly popular in the Canadian Prairies. However, its long‐term impact on diseases in subsequent sole crops is not well understood. We examined root rot and associated fungal communities in durum wheat [Triticum turgidum L. ssp.

Root rot suppression mechanisms in lentil promoted by organic intercropping

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Intercropping a grain legume with a grain nonlegume is of increased interest by producers in the Canadian Prairies, especially under organic production where intercropping is an alternative to the lack of economic returns of green manure or summer fallow.

Commodity risk assessment of oak and walnut logs from the US

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission submitted to the EFSA Panel on Plant Health a Dossier from the United States proposing the use of a vacuum–steam–heat treatment as a stand‐alone phytosanitary measure to mitigate the risk of entry of Bretziella fagacearum, Geosmithia morbida and its vector Pityophthorus juglandis (thousand cankers disease complex) into ...
