The Vulnerability of New Zealand Forage Plants to Incursions by New Pests, Pathogens and Weeds, and the Case for Greater Protection

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
We outline the diversity of pests, weeds and plant pathogens absent from New Zealand that threaten forage production, examine their potential import pathways, and outline the challenges of managing them should they arrive. The number and diversity of threats and pathways indicates ongoing incursions are inevitable.

Electrophoretic Separation of the Soluble Protein of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, S. trifoliorum and S. Minor

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical and Fundamental Sciences, 2019
. Soluble proteins extracted from 3 species of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, S. trifoliorum and S. minor were separated on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The three species of Sclerotinia could be distinguished by their protein patterns.

Prediction of pathogenicity genes involved in adaptation to a lupin host in the fungal pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum via comparative genomics

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background Narrow-leafed lupin is an emerging crop of significance in agriculture, livestock feed and human health food. However, its susceptibility to various diseases is a major obstacle towards increased adoption. Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Botrytis

Effect of Crop rotation on root-knot nematode control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The paper presents a summary of two studies highlighting the importance of cropping system to prevent or suppress soil-borne pathogens problems (and especially root-knot nematodes)in organic farming, and thus to maintain soil fertility.

Fungal endophytes of Panicum maximum and Pennisetum purpureum: isolation, identification, and determination of antifungal potential

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2018
This study aimed to isolate and identify endophytic fungi from the forage grass P. maximum and evaluate their ability to inhibit the growth of plant pathogenic fungi. One sample from P. purpureum grass was also included.

Distribution of glycan motifs at the surface of midgut cells in the cotton leafworm (Spodoptera littoralis) demonstrated by lectin binding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Glycans are involved in many biological phenomena, including signal transduction, cell adhesion, immune response or differentiation. Although a few papers have reported on the role of glycans in the development and proper functioning of the insect midgut,

Protein tandem repeats that produce frameshifts can generate new structural states and functions

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 3, Page 842-858, February 2026.
We explored an alternative protein structure landscape by analyzing amino acid sequences from frameshifted tandem repeats—regions prone to frameshifts. These frameshifts, especially in short repeats, lead to more drastic changes than in non‐repetitive regions, often altering structure, function, localization, and potentially contributing to disease ...

Emerging and re-emerging fungus and oomycete soil-borne plant diseases in Italy

open access: yesPhytopathologia Mediterranea, 2020
A disease is recognized as emerging if it is new, it occurs in a new host, there is an unexpected outbreak, its economic importance increases, if it attracts public opinion and the scientific community regardless of economic importance, or if it appears ...

CtTLP13 Located in Extracellular Vesicles Enhances the Resistance of Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) to Botrytis cinerea

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Safflower is susceptible to fungal infection, while research on its disease‐resistant genes remains scarce. CtTLP13, which is localised in safflower EVs, was identified by GWAS and multi‐omics analyses. Its antifungal activity was validated through both in vivo and in vitro assays, and safflower EVs themselves exhibit antifungal capacity.
