Resisting Xylella fastidiosa: xylem anatomical changes in the susceptible olive cultivar Cellina di Nardò after long‐term infection

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
After long‐term infection, the susceptible O. europaea cultivar Cellina di Nardò modified its wood anatomical traits as an adaptive response to counteract Xylella fastidiosa, exhibiting spontaneous canopy restoration. Abstract The Xylella fastidiosa subsp.

Host plant richness and abundance drive populations of a super‐generalist xylem‐feeding insect

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 570-579, June 2026.
Philaenus spumarius abundance was assessed across 93 sites and four habitat types (olive groves, vineyards, meadows, and field margins) within eight heterogeneous agricultural landscapes over the year. In spring, nymph abundance was positively associated with herbaceous plant species richness and vegetation cover, highlighting that even super ...

Using deep learning to assess the toxicological effects of sublethal exposure of a novel green pesticide in a stored‐product beetle

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4319-4331, May 2026.
This study employs an AI‐driven multidisciplinary approach to increase our understanding of the toxicological effects of sublethal concentrations of carlina oxide on Prostephanus truncatus. Sublethal exposure to the carlina oxide induced changes in motor patterns and thigmotaxis, highlighting its potential role in integrated pest management strategies.

Lecanicillium aphanocladii: a biocontrol agent against insect pests and phytopathogens

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4089-4103, May 2026.
Recent research findings on the biocontrol potential of Lecanicillium aphanocladii fungus against insect‐pests and plant diseases were highlighted. This review indicates that several L. aphanocladii strains show great potential to be developed as multipurpose biocontrol agents active against several insect‐pests, plant diseases and plant parasitic ...

FISH Illumination of the Oak Wilt Pathogen, Bretziella fagacearum, on Vectoring Insects and in the Red Oak Host Tissues

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Oak wilt, caused by Bretziella fagacearum, is a destructive vascular disease of oaks in North America, yet fine‐scale spatial localisation of the pathogen in host tissues and on insect vectors remains poorly characterised. In this study, we developed and validated a species‐specific fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) probe targeting the

PRED-CLASS: cascading neural networks for generalized protein classification and genome-wide applications

, 2001
A cascading system of hierarchical, artificial neural networks (named PRED-CLASS) is presented for the generalized classification of proteins into four distinct classes-transmembrane, fibrous, globular, and mixed-from information solely encoded in their ...
