Abstract Rice weevils (Sitophilus oryzae), a major storage pest, cause both qualitative and quantitative losses of stored grains. Normally, chemical insecticide along with fumigation is practiced for the management, but it creates health hazards. So, this study investigates the effects of temperature and duration of exposure on rice weevils. Completely

Co‐application of Bacillus strains TM22 and MCM61 suppressed Fusarium wilt of cotton. Seed biopriming with Bacillus strains performed better than soil drenching. TM22 + MCM61 improved vegetative and physiological aspects in cotton plants. TM22 + MCM61 enhanced the activity of defense enzymes and defense gene expression.

Impacts of Biofumigation and Anaerobic Soil Disinfestation on Strawberry Production [PDF]
Due to the phase-out of methyl bromide, there is a need for alternative, nonchemical fumigation treatments in strawberry production. Anaerobic soil disinfestation and biofumigation are two non-chemical methods for controlling soilborne plant pathogens of

A multilocus phylogeny and phenotypic assays were used to analyse large‐spored Alternaria spp. from the section Porri affecting tomatoes in the Baltic region. Two novel taxa were described as causal agents of early blight in tomatoes. ABSTRACT Early blight caused by large‐spored Alternaria spp.

Managing for soil health can suppress pests
A “healthy” soil can be thought of as one that functions well, both agronomically and ecologically, and one in which soil biodiversity and crop management work in synergy to suppress pests and diseases. UC researchers have pioneered many ways of managing

Organic intercropping legacy reduces Fusarium pathogens and root rot in subsequent durum wheat
Abstract Intercropping is a sustainable practice becoming increasingly popular in the Canadian Prairies. However, its long‐term impact on diseases in subsequent sole crops is not well understood. We examined root rot and associated fungal communities in durum wheat [Triticum turgidum L. ssp.

Root rot suppression mechanisms in lentil promoted by organic intercropping
Abstract Intercropping a grain legume with a grain nonlegume is of increased interest by producers in the Canadian Prairies, especially under organic production where intercropping is an alternative to the lack of economic returns of green manure or summer fallow.
