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

Structural Basis of the Membrane Association by the Conserved RocS Membrane‐Targeting Sequence in Streptococcus

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 17, 23 March 2026.
Chromosome segregation in Streptococcus pneumoniae depends on RocS, a bitopic protein whose membrane‐anchoring mechanisms were unclear. Using NMR and AFM, this study reveals that the widely conserved RocS anchor binds to membranes via a conserved kink‐helix motif which inserts into lipid nanodomains.

Charge Injection and Transport in an Isoindigo‐Based Polymer Transistor

Advanced Electronic Materials, Volume 12, Issue 6, 23 March 2026.
This study presents the charge injection and transport properties of field‐effect transistors based on an isoindigo‐bithiophene donor‐acceptor polymer semiconductor contacted with thiolated self‐assembled monolayer (SAM)‐functionalized electrodes. Temperature‐dependent contact characteristics are measured and simulated.

Reduced Tillage Intercropping With Thymus hyemalis Reshapes the Rare Soil Microbiome and Co‐Occurrence Networks in a Semi‐Arid Almond Orchard

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmentally friendly farming practices are gaining interest, and intercropping is a promising option to protect soil health, yet its effects on orchard microbiomes and functions remain underexplored. In this study, we assessed a 3‐year intercropping assay of Capparis spinosa (D1) and Thymus hyemalis (D2) with almond and reduced tillage in ...

Diversity Of Xylella Fastidiosa In France

, 2016
While listed as a quarantine pest for Europe Xylella fastidiosa emerged in France and this is evidenced through the survey of coffee plant trading from Latin America as well as the survey of natural settings. Since the discovery of the first contaminated foci of Polygala myrtifolia shrubs showing leaf scorch symptoms in France during 2015 summer ...
