Pest categorisation of Davidsoniella virescens [PDF]

, 2017
Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH) performed a pest categorisation of Davidsoniella virescens, a well‐defined and distinguishable fungal species of the family Ceratocystidaceae.

Could large‐scale silicon supplementation of crop‐lands mitigate the impacts of climate change?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Intervention strategies that involve supplementing crop‐lands with silicon have significant scope for carbon capture and drought mitigation, offering wide‐ranging societal impacts. These include contributing to decarbonisation goals, enhancing food security, providing economic benefits and reducing environmental damage associated with intensive ...

Camera traps reveal cryptic species‐specific seed removal preferences in a seasonal small‐mammal foraging study

Ecosphere
Seasonal changes in plant–animal interactions, such as seed dispersal and predation, remain poorly understood in temperate ecosystems. We examined seed removal of three woody species (Acer saccharum, Tsuga canadensis, and Lonicera spp.) by small mammals (

Quantization of surface plasmon polariton by Green's tensor method in amplifying and attenuating media [PDF]

Plasmonics, Volume 11, Issue 3, pp 875-884 (2016), 2015
In this paper we will present a quantization method for SPP (Surface Plasmon Polariton) based on Green's tensor method, which is applied usually for quantization of EM-field in various dielectric media. This method will be applied for a semi-infinite structure, which contains metal and dielectric regions with one interface. Moreover, by introducing the

Melanaphis sacchari/sorghi complex: current status, challenges and integrated strategies for managing the invasive sap‐feeding insect pest of sorghum

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 5, Page 2427-2441, May 2025.
We have assembled a group of scientists that work on different aspects of SCA and hereby submit a comprehensive review of the species and its management, with ideas for future research avenues. We believe this review will be of interest to scientists studying plant–insect interactions, and extension entomologists, among others, who work with the ...

Excitation of SPP's in graphene by a waveguide mode [PDF]

Europhysics Letters 126, 27001 (2019), 2019
We present a semi-analytical model that predicts the excitation of surface-plasmon polaritons (SPP) on a graphene sheet located in front of a sub-wavelength slit drilled in thick metal screen. We identify the signature of the SPP in the transmission, reflection, and absorption curves.

Single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas assays for point‐of‐need detection of Stewart's wilt pathogen (Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii) of corn and Maize dwarf mosaic virus

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1988-1999, April 2025.
Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

In Vitro Evaluation of Trichoderma spp. against Sugarcane Eye Spot Disease (Bipolaris sp.)

Jurnal Ilmu Pertanian Indonesia, 2023
Sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum L.) is the main ingredient in sugar production. Sugarcane is widely cultivated in warm and tropical areas and is widely used as a sweetener because it contains a lot of fructose and glucose.

Variation in prevalence and intensity of macroparasites in moose and their interactions with winter tick load in eastern Canada

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wild animals are infected with a large diversity and abundance of parasites that can affect their behavior, growth, body condition, and ultimately their survival. Although the adverse effects of parasites and the mechanisms involved in the interactions between a host and its parasites are generally well studied, much less is known about the additive or
