Weed detection and/or destruction

open access: yes, 2009
A method of determining the position of weeds growing in soil amongst crops comprising the steps of:- Using a camera to acquiring a stereoscopic image of plants growing on soil; - Segmentation plant pixels and soil pixels; - Creating a modelised height profile of the soil at positions at which soil pixels have not been captured by the stereoscopic ...

Field size as a determinant of common vole population density

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Population densities of the common vole, an agricultural pest, increase nonlinearly with forage field size, especially in fields below 20 ha. Reducing the field size may help limit crop damage in farmland. Abstract BACKGROUND Environmental heterogeneity in agricultural landscapes is a key driver of biodiversity and ecological processes, yet its role in

Ozonated irrigation in vineyards: limited effects on soil bacterial and fungal microbiota

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Irrigation with ozonated water caused slight changes in bacterial composition but did not significantly affect microbial diversity, beneficial microbes (plant growth‐promoting bacteria, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi), or grapevine trunk disease‐related pathogens.

Field resistance of orange fruit to citrus black spot and citrus canker in D‐limonene synthase downregulated trees

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Genetically modified (GM) sweet‐oranges with downregulated CitMTSE1 gene showed reduced citrus black spot severity and citrus canker incidence, confirming terpene modulation as a promising strategy for sustainable field citrus disease resistance. Abstract BACKGROUND Citrus black spot (CBS), caused by Phyllosticta citricarpa, and citrus canker (CC ...
