Epidemiological Insights Into Water and Soil‐Mediated Transmission of Tomato Mottle Mosaic Virus
Water and growing substrate can serve as reservoirs for tomato mottle mosaic virus (ToMMV) inoculum. ToMMV can survive in water for up to 27 weeks. ToMMV infects bait plants through roots within 5–17 weeks, depending on the severity of root damage. A rapid, field‐deployable RPA test—requiring no RNA extraction—offers sensitivity comparable to RT‐qPCR ...

Development of a Forecasting and Warning System on the Ecological Life-Cycle of Sunn Pest
We provide a machine learning solution that replaces the traditional methods for deciding the pesticide application time of Sunn Pest. We correlate climate data with phases of Sunn Pest in its life-cycle and decide whether the fields should be sprayed. Our solution includes two groups of prediction models.
