Does the Application Flow Rate of Nutrient Solutions Prepared in Brackish Water Affect Coriander Production?

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flow rates for applying nutrient solutions in hydroponic systems are empirically known, yet uncertainties remain regarding whether brackish water affects the optimal flow rate and, consequently, biomass production and allocation. This study evaluated whether variations in application flow rate affect coriander biomass when brackish water is ...

Innate immunity shapes the persistent transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
In this review, we focus on two key aspects of the virus–vector interplay: (1) persistently transmitted viruses utilize host factors to overcome transmission barriers; and (2) molecular recognition activates antiviral immunity and subsequent viral counter‐defense. Understanding these interactions offers critical insights for developing novel strategies

Building capacity in vector‐borne plant virus research: The CONNECTED Network

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plant viruses spread by insects decimate crop yields globally, causing food security challenges in vulnerable areas, including regions of Africa. Interdisciplinary research is needed to protect future crop supplies. CONNECTED, the Community Network for African Vector‐Borne Plant Viruses, increased research capacity in Central, East, West and Southern ...

Investigating zeta‐cypermethrin resistance stability in California Drosophila suzukii populations

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
After continuous selection and removal of selection pressure in spotted‐wing Drosophila, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance remained stable over several generations. Following a population bottleneck, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance increased without selection, highlighting the importance of insecticide rotation.
