How safe are peat‐free growing media? An exploration of plant pathogen risks to the horticultural industry and recommendations for risk mitigation

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The UK's horticultural industry is shifting from reliance on unsustainable peat‐based growing media to products that contain alternative constituents, including coir, bark, wood fibre and composted green waste. Some peat‐alternatives carry an elevated risk of harbouring plant pathogens, including the potential to introduce novel pathogens from overseas,

Copper Nanowire‐Immobilized Coatings for Antibacterial Application

open access: yesParticle &Particle Systems Characterization, EarlyView.
Bacterial contamination on inanimate surfaces poses major risks to human health. Here, an antimicrobial coating is developed by immobilizing Cu NWs using a mussel‐inspired PDA coating technique. The coating exhibits strong antibacterial activity against both gram‐positive and gram‐negative bacteria, demonstrating the potential for reducing microbial ...

Downwind drift from almond airblast spray applications: field measurement to aid mechanistic model development

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Spray drift deposit measured in almond orchard significantly decayed downwind until termination at 531.1 m for artificial foliage sampler and 232.8 m for horizontal string samplers based on logarithmic curve fitting. Drift variability among spray trials was significantly affected by variation in weather condition (wind direction, wind speed, and ...
