Evaluation of electrolyzed water to control fungal trunk pathogens in grapevine nurseries

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1740-1751, April 2025.
Electrolyzed water treatments could have promising applications in the grapevine nursery process to prevent or reduce infections caused by fungal trunk pathogens on grapevine propagation material. Abstract BACKGROUND Grapevine producers demand solutions to control fungal trunk pathogens (FTPs) in nurseries.

Grapevines Pretreated with Biocontrol Bacteria Have an Altered Transcriptional Response to Xylella fastidiosa and a Reduction in Pierce's Disease Severity

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
In a previous DNA-based microbiome study of grapevines in areas of Pierce's disease (PD) pressure, we determined that taxa belonging to the Pseudomonas and Achromobacter genera negatively associated with PD severity and titer of the causal agent, Xylella

Determination of physical characteristics of root vegetables with puncture test [PDF]

Journal on Processing and Energy in Agriculture, 2011
The aim of this research was to analyze the physical characteristics of root vegetables: carrot, parsley, parsnip and celery. These root vegetables are sold fresh on the market which is why it is important to specify its shape, structure and root texture.

Single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas assays for point‐of‐need detection of Stewart's wilt pathogen (Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii) of corn and Maize dwarf mosaic virus

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1988-1999, April 2025.
Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

Investigation of the Evolution Mechanism and Multiphysics Coupling in Tree‐Contact Single‐Phase‐to‐Ground Fault

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tree‐contact single‐phase‐to‐ground fault (TSF) is a common and hazardous type of failure in distribution networks. TSF is likely to occur when overhead conductors contact moist tree branches, potentially leading to insulation breakdown, posing serious threats to grid safety.

Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...

LsFAMeT and LsJHAMT coordinate JH biosynthesis to regulate fecundity in Laodelphax striatellus

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, can trigger large‐scale outbreaks when encountering suitable habitats during migration due to their strong reproductive ability. This study investigated the role of juvenile hormone (JH) in regulating SBPH reproduction.

Sensitivity of stem and petiole hydraulic conductance of deciduous trees to xylem sap ion concentration

, 2010
Hydraulic conductance of stem and petioles increased in response to an increase in xylem sap ion concentration, and decreased in response to a decrease in the ion concentration in six temperate deciduous tree species.

Downstream Passage Performance of European Silver Eels (Anguilla anguilla): The Importance of Phenotypic Variation and Rack Design

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
During their spawning migration, European silver eels frequently encounter hydropower facilities where successful downstream passage is essential for the conservation of this critically endangered species. In this study, we evaluated how three angled rack designs and individual behavioral variation influenced downstream passage success in large‐scale ...

Analysis of Lignin Composition and Distribution Using Fluorescence Laser Confocal Microspectroscopy

, 2017
Lignin is a polyphenolic polymer specifically accumulating in the cell walls of xylem cells in higher vascular plants. Far from being homogeneous, the lignification of xylem cell walls varies in deposition site, quantity, composition and macromolecular ...
