Review on the ecophysiology of important Andean fruits: Solanaceae
The high Andean areas present ecophysiological conditions suitable for the cultivation of many fruit species, especially of the Solanaceae family. The objective of this review is to present important ecophysiological information on four fruit trees grown

Abstract Due to ongoing climate change and the spread of invasive pests, understanding and predicting climatic suitability for invasive insect species has shown growing demand from government and industry biosecurity managers. The invasive pest Bactericera cockerelli, (Šulc) (Hemiptera: Triozidae), commonly known as tomato potato psyllid (TPP), is ...

Fruits of the city: The nature, nurture and future of urban foraging
Abstract Urban foraging is a global informal phenomenon which has been investigated in the Global North more than other parts of the world. Characterising the nature of urban foraging in the Global South is imperative given the rapid urbanisation and sustainable development priorities in the region.

Mutagénesis inducida en plantas de Solanum betaceum Cav. mediante el uso de dietil sulfato (DES)
La materia prima del fitomejoramiento es la variabilidad genética, que se presenta baja, en especies en proceso de domesticación, que no han sido sometidas a selección, como en Solanum betaceum.

Our main objective was to characterize the tri‐trophic interactions between Fopius arisanus, fruit fly and host plant species by long‐term field database and laboratory assays. Results suggest a possible existence of apparent competition between Bactrocera dorsalis and Bactrocera zonata via F. arisanus.

Abstract The EFSA Plant Health Panel performed a pest categorisation of Colletotrichum aenigma, C. alienum, C. perseae, C. siamense and C. theobromicola, five clearly defined fungi of the C. gloeosporioides complex causing anthracnose. The pathogens are widely distributed in at least three continents. C. aenigma and C.

Phylogenomic discordance suggests polytomies along the backbone of the large genus Solanum
Abstract Premise Evolutionary studies require solid phylogenetic frameworks, but increased volumes of phylogenomic data have revealed incongruent topologies among gene trees in many organisms both between and within genomes. Some of these incongruences indicate polytomies that may remain impossible to resolve.

Symptomatology associated with “Purple top”, an emerging disease of solanaceous fruit species
“Purple top” is an emerging disease that affects solanaceous crops, reported mainly on Solanum tuberosum (potato). Additionally, Bactericera cockerelli has been reported as the insect vector of Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum (CaLso), a pathogen ...
