GCB Bioenergy, Volume 13, Issue 9, Page 1561-1575, September 2021., 2021 Napier grass is a promising feedstock for lignocellulosic biofuel production due to its superior biomass production and persistence. However, data supporting breeding efforts of Napier grass are scarce. Crosses were made between genetically distant parents with contrasting biomass traits.

Pest categorisation of Phenacoccus solenopsis
EFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2021., 2021 Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Phenacoccus solenopsis (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) for the European Union (EU) territory. This species is not included in EU Commission Implementing Regulation 2019/2072. P. solenopsis is native to North America and has spread to all continents except Antarctica. It has recently

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 22, Issue 5, Page 508-521, May 2021., 2021 Expression of the effector gene PWL2 of the rice blast fungus is controlled by tandem repeat cis‐regulatory sequences in response to unknown signals from living cells of host (rice) or non‐host (onion). Abstract During plant infection, fungi secrete effector proteins in coordination with distinct infection stages.

Herbicide tolerance in 11 grass species for minimal‐to‐no‐mow golf course rough
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 4, Issue 3, 2021., 2021 Abstract Research was conducted to determine the tolerance of 11 grass species used in minimal‐to‐no‐mow turf areas to three postemergence herbicides applied at one‐ and twofold the maximum label rates in 2018 and 2019. Grasses were transplanted into field plots in West Lafayette, IN, in 2018 and 2019, allowed time to establish (∼1−2 mo), and then ...

Magnaporthe grisea Pathogenicity Genes Obtained Through Insertional Mutagenesis
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1998 We have initiated a mutational analysis of pathogenicity in the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea, in which hygromycin-resistant transformants, most generated by restriction enzyme-mediated integration (REMI), were screened for the ability to infect ...

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002 The AVR1-CO39 gene that came from a Magnaporthe grisea isolate from weeping lovegrass controls avirulence on the rice cultivar CO39. AVR1-CO39 was not present in the genome of the rice-infecting M. grisea isolate Guy11 from French Guyana, suggesting that

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 10, October 2025.ABSTRACT Native temperate grasslands are among the most widespread biomes in Australia, and they have been extensively modified, primarily for livestock grazing and cropping on the fertile soils ideal for agriculture. In the 1980s and 1990s, foundational work by Jamie Kirkpatrick and others brought attention to the widespread loss of these ecosystems ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 7, Page 1799-1814, July 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In the plant community with a shrub–grass mosaic, the main types of litter include herbaceous litter and its mixed forms with shrub leaves and stems. However, the quantitative relationship between the litter composition type and the litter decomposition, as well as how ...

A Logistic Regression Model for the Prediction of Vegetation Recruitment in the Kinu River, Japan
River Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 786-796, May 2025.ABSTRACT Vegetation overgrowth in rivers worldwide is a considerable problem because it can potentially reduce the flood‐flowing capacity and cause biodiversity loss. In this study, we developed a model to predict vegetation recruitment during the initial stages of secondary succession, which leads to vegetation overgrowth.

Austral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2025.Abstract The genus Tetramesa Walker (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) comprises over 200 species of herbivorous wasps that feed exclusively on grasses. Recent field surveys in South Africa for grass biological control programs have uncovered a large diversity of potential Tetramesa on African grasses.
