Trunk anatomy of asymptomatic and symptomatic grapevines provides insights into degradation patterns of wood tissues caused by Esca-associated pathogens

open access: yesPhytopathologia Mediterranea, 2022
Wood colonizing fungi are specialists that exploit the lignocellulose of cell wall components in host wood cylinders as a carbon sources. Some of these specialized fungi, including Fomitiporia mediterranea (Fmed) and Phaeomoniella chlamydospora (Pch ...

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 10, Page 3633-3647, October 2026.
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.

The dark side of fungal competition and resource capture in wood: Zone line spalting from science to application

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2021
On wood surfaces and in planar section, zones lines appear as narrow and sharply delineated dark lines within wood visibly altered (“spalted”) by the decay process. In intact wood, zone lines define an irregular volume of decaying wood.

Fruit‐Piercing Moth Serrodes partita (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) in Soft Citrus: Feeding Behaviour and Damage Patterns for Improved Management in the Eastern Cape, South Africa

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The fruit‐piercing moth, Serrodes partita (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), is a significant pest of soft citrus in South Africa. The adult moth pierces ripe and ripening fruit, leading to fruit rot. The damage is challenging to detect due to the delayed onset of symptoms. The study investigated the feeding preferences and damage patterns of S. partita

Urbanization Effects on the Community Structure of Saproxylic Arthropods in Warm‐Temperate Japan

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study examined saproxylic arthropod communities in various landscapes, ranging from large to fragmented urban forests, and compared the structure and composition of these communities. The results showed that communities could be classified into three types based on species composition and that arthropod community types were correlated with forest ...

Design of a Bacteriophage‐Based Product for Biocontrol of Fire Blight and Black Rot

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 9, September 2026.
Phytopathogenic bacteria threaten crops, and while chemical pesticides are effective, they harm ecosystems. Bacteriophages like ɸEF1, ɸEF2 and ɸXF1 show promise as biocontrol agents. They remain stable at 4°C and 20°C under neutral conditions, with stability enhanced by additives like CaCO3, improving field effectiveness for ecological and sustainable ...

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1099-1113, September 2026.
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...
