Host suitability of Mediterranean olive (Olea europaea L.) varieties to two root‐knot nematode species (Meloidogyne javanica and M. incognita) under greenhouse conditions

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Root‐knot nematodes significantly threaten olive production in Morocco. Screening of seven olive varieties revealed strong resistance in Koroneiki and Picholine Marocaine, characterized by suppressed nematode reproduction, sustained plant growth, and enhanced defense responses.

Ethnobotanical and genetic assessments of Central American avocado landraces reveal novel sources of biodiversity and ancient migration patterns

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Avocados are a multibillion‐dollar global commodity, but their growing export market pressures local farmers to abandon local fruit tree diversity in favor of commercial cultivar production. Interviews with rural avocado farmers and households from the Southern Mexican Highlands, Pacific Coastal Honduras, and Western Nicaragua, as well as the genetic ...

Genomic and culture-based analysis of Cyclaneusma minus in New Zealand provides evidence for multiple morphotypes

open access: yesPhytopathology Research
Cyclaneusma needle cast, caused by Cyclaneusma minus, affects Pinus species world wide. Previous studies suggested the presence of two distinct morphotypes in New Zealand, ‘verum’ and ‘simile’. Traditional mycological analyses revealed a third morphotype

Conservation gap analysis for wild grapevines (Vitis L.) of the Americas

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wild grapevines (Vitis L.) native to the Americas are ecologically and culturally important plants that are also critical to the global cultivated grape industry as sources of traits for crop innovation, but many of these species are poorly documented and insufficiently conserved.
