Effect of temperature on growth and development of rice weevil [Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)] on polished rice

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
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

Comparative efficacy of seed biopriming and soil drenching with Bacillus altitudinis TM22 and Bacillus atrophaeus MCM61 on the suppression of Fusarium wilt of cotton

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2424-2445, March 2026.
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]

open access: yes, 2016
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

Two Newly Discovered Taxa From Alternaria Section Porri (Ascomycota, Pleosporaceae) Isolated From Tomatoes in the Baltic Region

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
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

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 2016
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

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
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

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
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.

Sustainable Soil Disinfestation Approaches in Crop Production: From Chemical Dependency to Ecological Resilience

open access: yesHorticulturae
Soil management is crucial for addressing soil-borne pathogens, weeds, and pests, ensuring sustainable crop productivity. Traditional chemical fumigants, such as methyl bromide, have been effective but pose serious environmental risks, including ozone ...
