The Microtubule‐Associated Protein CsTON2 Interacts With CsTRM5 and CsSUN to Regulate Fruit Shape Development in Cucumber

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit shape is an important external quality trait that directly determines the market value. Modification of fruit shape has emerged as a key focus in crop improvement, but the regulatory network of fruit shape specifications remains largely unknown.

WRKY Transcription Factors: Integral Regulators of Defence Responses to Biotic Stress in Crops

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crops are continually challenged by biotic stresses, including fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens and insect pests, which cause substantial yield and quality losses worldwide. WRKY transcription factors constitute a plant‐specific and functionally diverse family that is central to immune regulation.

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

MdRLKT1–MdRAX2–MdMKS1 Module Positively Regulating Resistance to Cytospora mali in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Valsa canker (caused by Cytospora mali = Valsa mali. C. mali) is one of the most destructive diseases affecting apple cultivation. The scarcity of natural germplasm resources with high resistance and immunity underscores the importance of exploring plant immune regulation factors of disease‐resistant breeding.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Ultrabithorax is a key regulator for the dimorphism of wings, a main cause for the outbreak of planthoppers in rice

National Science Review, 2020
Rice planthoppers, the most devastating rice pests, occur in two wing forms: the short-wing form for rapid population growth and long-wing form for long-distance migration, which together create the mechanism for outbreak. Here we show that Ultrabithorax

Determining Terminal Velocities of Selected Insects and Substitute Materials to Develop Future Test Procedures for Insect‐Friendly Mowing Technology

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 3, Page 310-320, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural grasslands are vital habitats for insects that provide key ecosystem services. However, conventional rotary mowers are proposed to cause significant insect mortality due to the high rotational speed of their blades and the resulting airflow.

Population of brown planthopper in local rice varieties [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
Brown planthopper (BPH) is the most important pest in rice. In Indonesia, the first of BHP outbreak was happened after the Goverment introduced new rice variety with high production. To control this pest, Goverment released resistance varieties (VUTW), but this pest attack always happens.

Droplet Deposition and Control of Planthoppers of Different Nozzles in Two-Stage Rice with a Quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

Agronomy, 2020
Previous studies have confirmed that choosing nozzles that produce coarser droplets could reduce the risk of pesticide spray drift, but this conclusion is based on a large volume of application, and it is easy to ignore how this impacts the control ...
