Evaluation of electrolyzed water to control fungal trunk pathogens in grapevine nurseries

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1740-1751, April 2025.
Electrolyzed water treatments could have promising applications in the grapevine nursery process to prevent or reduce infections caused by fungal trunk pathogens on grapevine propagation material. Abstract BACKGROUND Grapevine producers demand solutions to control fungal trunk pathogens (FTPs) in nurseries.

Exploiting Phase Partitioning of a Giant Trimeric Fibrous Protein Scaffold to Potentiate Chitinase‐Driven Antifungal Activity

Small, EarlyView.
Cstalk, a giant fibrous protein, selectively partitions into the dextran‐rich phase in polyethylene glycol/dextran aqueous two‐phase systems, functioning as a recruiter for proteins of interest. This phase‐selective recruitment can be extended to fungal cell walls, enabling the targeted localization of enzymes and enhancing antifungal activity through ...

Liquid Phase Backscattered Scanning Electron Microscopy of Bacillus subtilis Spores

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Graphene encapsulation enables liquid‐phase BSE‐SEM to visualize subsurface architecture of whole, hydrated Bacillus subtilis spores without staining. This approach is applied to visualize dormant spores and subsequent structural changes during spore germination, while imaging across a range of beam energies and Monte Carlo simulations provide a ...

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

Establishment of a Human Cell‐Based In Vitro Test System for Investigating and Evaluating Cytotoxic and Immunomodulatory Effects of Indoor Mold

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mold growth in damp indoor environments is a widespread problem associated with respiratory health effects, though causal mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We established a human cell‐based in vitro test system using bronchial epithelial cells (NuLi‐1) and macrophages (THP‐1) to assess inhalation toxicity and immunomodulatory effects ...
