First report of stubby root nematode, Paratrichodorus teres (Nematoda: Trichodoridae) from Iran [PDF]
During a survey of plant-parasitic nematodes in fruit tree nurseries in Iran, a species of the genus Paratrichodorus from the family Trichodoridae was found in the rhizosphere of apricot seedlings in Shahrood, central Iran, then subsequently in Karaj orchards. Morphological and morphometric characters of the specimens were in agreement with P.

The role of the microbiome in the neurobiology of social behaviour
ABSTRACT Microbes colonise all multicellular life, and the gut microbiome has been shown to influence a range of host physiological and behavioural phenotypes. One of the most intriguing and least understood of these influences lies in the domain of the microbiome's interactions with host social behaviour, with new evidence revealing that the gut ...

Abstract The sporadically occurring high and low yielding field sites is a commonly observed manifestation of the within‐farm spatial heterogeneity of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] yield in Pennsylvania. Understanding the causes behind this phenomenon is important for implementing site‐specific management practices, leading to greater attainable ...

Quantifying the economic cost of invertebrate pests to New Zealand’s pastoral industry
ABSTRACT The invertebrate pests most commonly affecting New Zealand’s pastoral‐based production in ‘average’ years cause losses of between $1.7B and $2.3B p.a. of which up to $0.9B occur on sheep and beef farms and $1.4B on dairy farms. The native scarab grass grub is the most costly pest causing losses of $140–380 M on dairy farms and $75–205 M on ...
