Loss‐of‐Function Mutation in CER2‐LIKE1 Reduced Accumulation of Cuticular Wax and Susceptibility to Thrips in Welsh Onion

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 871-883, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes can form a hydrophobic barrier on aerial plant surfaces, which is essential for mediating plant‐environment interactions by providing protection against both biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, a cuticular wax mutant (gl) was identified and characterised in Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum L.), exhibiting a functional ...

The cotton historical lines project—Part I: History and field evaluation

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Common garden experiments have provided great insights into crop adaptation across many systems. Cotton (Gossypium spp.) cultivars have changed in the 20th and 21st centuries, but breeders have not quantified the degree of these changes. We synthesized a panel of 164 non‐genetically modified genotypes, from the private and public sectors ...

Control of Rice Water Weevil with Karate, 1994 [PDF]

Arthropod Management Tests, 1995
Abstract Two rates of Karate 1 EC each applied at 3 postflood treatments were compared with carbofuran (Furadan 3G) and an untreated check for control of RWW. Karate was applied to test the efficacy as an adulticide, hence the applications shortly after permanent flood. Experimental design was a RCB with 4 replications.
