In vitro and in vivo control of yam dry rot nematodes using pyroligneous extracts from palm trees [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Ceres, 2020
ABSTRACT Dry rot of yam (Dioscorea spp.) caused by Scutellonema bradys and Pratylenchus spp. has restricted yam production in Brazil. Plant-based products can be useful reducing nematode damages. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the nematostatic and nematicidal in vitro activities of pyroligneous extracts from Cocos nucifera, Syagrus ...

Biocontrollers in the management of yam dry rot nematodes

open access: yesDiversitas Journal, 2021
ABSTRACT: One of the main diseases affecting yam crops (Dioscorea spp.) in Brazil is the dry rot caused by Scutellonema bradys, Pratylenchus brachyurus and P. coffeae nematodes. The use of biological control agents is an auspicious procedure which has been tested in order to reduce losses by pathogens.

“Wrap and Plant” Seed Treatment: A Sustainable Management Practice for Yield Improvement and Storability of Yam Against Plant‐Parasitic Nematodes in Ghana

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Yam is an important food and income security crop for people in Ghana. Plant‐parasitic nematode infestation in soils and seed yams is a hindrance to peak production and profitability of the yam business. The key yam nematodes are Scutellonema bradys, Meloidogyne spp., and Pratylenchus spp., which cause dry rot in yam in the field, and in storage ...

Socio-Ecological Significance and Anthropogenic Threats to <i>Berlinia</i> (Sol. ex Hook.f., 1849) and <i>Isoberlinia</i> (Stapf, 1911) Species in Côte d'Ivoire. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Species of the genera Isoberlinia and Berlinia are threatened with extinction due to the abusive exploitation of their distribution area including various forms of use. However, their availability and socio‐cultural importance are little known and/or neglected.

Small Extracellular Vesicle-Derived Nicotinamide Phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) Induces Acyl-Coenzyme A Synthetase SLC27A4-Mediated Glycolysis to Promote Hepatocellular Carcinoma. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Extracell Vesicles
NAMPT delivered by metastatic HCC cells‐derived sEV upregulates SLC27A4 expression via TLR4/NF‐кB dependent pathway. SLC27A4 acts as an acyl‐CoA synthetase and increases the level of intracellular TG, leading to DHAP‐mediated transition between lipogenesis and glycolysis.

Organic-matter effects on populations of dry rot of yam nematodes

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Agricultural Research Vol Pp, 2016
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of organic-matter incorporated into the soil on population densities of the causal agents of the dry rot disease of yam, under field conditions. The experiment was performed in a natural infested area with a mixed population of Pratylenchus coffeae and Scutellonema bradys, in Quebrangulo county ...

Morphological Characteristics of Scutellonema bradys Populations Responsible for Yam Dry Rot in Côte d’Ivoire

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology, 2021
The great diversity of agroecological factors that cover the yam production area in Côte d’Ivoire can be a source of morphological variability within Scutellonema bradys species, responsible for yam dry rot. This study aims at identifying the morphological group(s) of S. bradys which infect(s) yam Dioscorea cayenensis-rotundata.

Influence of Field and Storage Diseases and Pests on Tuber Yield and Quality of Exotic and Local Yam (Dioscorea spp.) Genotypes

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
Field and storage trials were conducted to assess the response of exotic and local yam genotypes to major diseases (anthracnose, yam mosaic virus (YMV) and dry rot) and pests (i.e., mealy bug and nematodes) for the identification of parents with desired ...
