Vegetable Oil–Mediated Transesterification as a Green Route to Tune Ethyl Cellulose Properties

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
An environmentally conscious strategy for augmenting the hydrophobicity of ethyl cellulose polymer via a transesterification reaction using renewable vegetable oil. ABSTRACT The inherent hydrophilicity of biopolymers presents significant limitations to their implementation, particularly in coating and packaging applications.

Effect of adding fungicide to mixtures of triazoles and strobilurins in the control of downy mildew and Asian soybean rust

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2019
Fungicides used to control the Asian soybean rust are composed almost entirely of mixtures involving the systemic (triazoles) and meso-systemic (strobilurins) modes of action.

Breeding for multi‐stress resilience in crops: Myth or possibility?

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change threatens millions of farmers worldwide by exposing crops to multiple concurrent or sequential environmental stresses such as drought, heat, waterlogging, and diseases. Although crops have long been selected under naturally occurring multi‐stress conditions, breeding pipelines largely focus on optimal or single‐stress environments ...

Suppression or Activation of Immune Responses by Predicted Secreted Proteins of the Soybean Rust Pathogen Phakopsora pachyrhizi

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2018
Rust fungi, such as the soybean rust pathogen Phakopsora pachyrhizi, are major threats to crop production. They form specialized haustoria that are hyphal structures intimately associated with host-plant cell membranes.

Soybean Rust Reaches Iowa

open access: yes, 2008
During the 2005 and 2006 growing seasons, soybean rust was not a threat for Iowa soybean growers. This year was a different story, as soybean rust was established fairly early in the season in Texas and Louisiana creating the potential for soybean rust to get to Iowa during the growing season.

Challenges and limitations of introducing pigeonpea as a new crop into smallholder farming systems through farmer‐to‐farmer education in Zambia

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Legume plants offer generous benefits for both the planet and people by supporting sustainable farming, food and feed systems through their ability to symbiotically fix atmospheric nitrogen. While grain legumes are cultivated and consumed globally, their adoption, market development, and integration into cropping systems vary.

Quantitative detection of soybean rust using image processing techniques

open access: yesJournal of Crop Protection, 2016
Rust caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi Syd. is a major constraint to soybean product in Asia. Early detection and possibilities of controlling plant diseases by the integration of several image processing methods has been the subject of extensive research.
