Harnessing entomopathogenic fungi: A meta‐analysis on their role as plant growth promoters
Our meta‐analysis highlights the potential of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) as sustainable alternatives to chemical pesticides and fertilisers. By promoting plant growth and reducing reliance on agrochemicals, EPF can support healthier crops, minimise environmental contamination and improve profitability within food production systems.

Although the importance of light for tomato plant yield and edible fruit quality is well known, the PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTORS (PIFs), main components of phytochrome-mediated light signal transduction, have been studied almost exclusively in ...

Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

2.7. Correlation of compound abundance with site-origin of eggplantlandraces Artificial selection for local preferences of fruit qualities such as flavor, as well as adaptation to local agricultural conditions and ecologies, may contribute to eggplant phenolic diversity just as genetic history does.

Click beetle (Elateridae) olfactory preferences for plant volatiles, including those released by damaged plants, remain poorly understood. Olfactometer and electroantennography experiments revealed sex‐ and plant species‐specific olfactory preferences of Agriotes sputator beetles, with maturity influencing female responses.

Glandular Trichome Rupture in Tomato Plants is an Ultra-Fast & Sensitive Defense Mechanism Against Insects [PDF]
Trichomes, specialized hair-like structures on the surfaces of many plants, play a crucial role in defense against herbivorous insects. We investigated the biomechanics of type VI glandular trichomes in cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and its wild relative (Solanum habrochaites).
