Pest categorisation of Milviscutulus mangiferae
EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Milviscutulus mangiferae (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Coccidae), the mango shield scale, for the EU. The native range of M. mangiferae is uncertain. This species occurs widely in tropical and warmer subtropical regions throughout the world.

Pest categorisation of Aonidiella orientalis
EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022 Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Aonidiella orientalis (Hemiptera: Diaspididae), the oriental scale, for the EU. A. orientalis is a species mostly occurring in tropical and subtropical areas. It is not listed in Annex II of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2072.

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2021 Cut flowers of Strelitzia reginae Aiton (Strelitziaceae) generally have a short vase life. Vascular blockage is a major reason for this. In this paper, we evaluated the effects of pulse treatment with disinfectants including cobalt chloride (CoCl2 ...

American Journal of Botany, Volume 108, Issue 7, Page 1066-1086, July 2021., 2021 Premise Resolving relationships within order Commelinales has posed quite a challenge, as reflected in its unstable infra‐familial classification. Thus, we investigated (1) relationships across families and genera of Commelinales; (2) phylogenetic placement of never‐before sequenced genera; (3) how well off‐target plastid data integrate with other ...

Pollen sterols are associated with phylogeny and environment but not with pollinator guilds
New Phytologist, Volume 230, Issue 3, Page 1169-1184, May 2021., 2021 Summary Phytosterols are primary plant metabolites that have fundamental structural and regulatory functions. They are also essential nutrients for phytophagous insects, including pollinators, that cannot synthesize sterols. Despite the well‐described composition and diversity in vegetative plant tissues, few studies have examined phytosterol diversity

Host evolutionary relationships explain tree mortality caused by a generalist pest–pathogen complex
Evolutionary Applications, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1083-1094, April 2021., 2021 Abstract The phylogenetic signal of transmissibility (competence) and attack severity among hosts of generalist pests is poorly understood. In this study, we examined the phylogenetic effects on hosts differentially affected by an emergent generalist beetle–pathogen complex in California and South Africa. Host types (non‐competent, competent and killed‐
