Hymenochaetales associated with esca-related wood rots on grapevine with a special emphasis on the status of esca in South African vineyards

open access: yesPhytopathologia Mediterranea, 2015
Esca disease is a problem on grapevines worldwide. This disease complex is characterised by several external and internal symptoms including foliar tiger-stripe chlorosis and necrosis, dieback, wood necrosis and white rot.

Domestic composters as winter reservoirs for the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii in temperate climates

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Domestic composters enable year‐round emergence of Drosophila suzukii, buffering winter temperatures and supporting larval development, potentially enhancing overwintering survival and early‐season crop reinfestation. Abstract BACKGROUND Drosophila suzukii is an invasive pest established worldwide, including in temperate regions with harsh winters.

Evaluation of the Effect of Thermo-mechanical Treatment on the Resistance of Commercial OSB to Decay Fungi

open access: yesMedžiagotyra, 2019
insertion of chemical agents, which are subject to leaching when exposed to weathering. In this context, the thermo-mechanical modification seeks to increase the durability of wood, without polluting the environment.

The GSTome Reflects the Chemical Environment of White-Rot Fungi

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2015
White-rot fungi possess the unique ability to degrade and mineralize all the different components of wood. In other respects, wood durability, among other factors, is due to the presence of extractives that are potential antimicrobial molecules. To cope with these molecules, wood decay fungi have developed a complex detoxification network including ...

Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Differential Mechanisms of Soft Rot Resistance in Lettuce Grown Under White and Blue Light

open access: yesFood and Energy Security
Specific light wavelengths can affect plant responses to pathogens. In this study, we investigated the soft rot resistance of lettuce grown under different light conditions and analyzed the underlying molecular mechanisms using RNA‐seq data.

MRPose: Multi‐Robot Relative 6D Pose Estimation for Unseen Objects From RGB Images

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Relative pose estimation under the query–reference paradigm has emerged as a practical alternative for estimating the 6D pose of unseen objects without relying on CAD models or extensive annotations. However, many existing approaches remain difficult to deploy in practice, as their reliance on geometric matching makes robustness highly ...

Effects of White and Brown Rot Decay on Changes of Wood Ultrastructure

open access: yesBioResources, 2014
Fungal decay results in gradual decomposition of compounds of wood cell walls. Mass loss of wood is usually applied to characterize the decay. However, mechanisms of brown and white rot decay are significantly different, resulting in different ...

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.
