Changes in the distribution and pest risk of stored product insects in Europe due to global warming: Need for pan-European pest monitoring and improved food-safety
(Elsevier, 2022-05-18)
Global warming affects the distribution of stored product pest insects across Europe in a way comparable to field crop and orchard pests. Nevertheless, stored product research has been neglected in ...
An efficient CRISPR-Cas9 enrichment sequencing strategy for characterizing complex and highly duplicated genomic regions. A case study in the Prunus salicina LG3-MYB10 genes cluster
(BMC, 2022-08-27)
Background: Genome complexity is largely linked to diversifcation and crop innovation. Examples of regions with duplicated genes with relevant roles in agricultural traits are found in many crops. In ...
An LTR retrotransposon in the promoter of a PsMYB10.2 gene associated with the regulation of fruit f lesh color in Japanese plum
(Oxford University Press, 2022-09-13)
Japanese plums exhibit wide diversity of fruit coloration. The red to black hues are caused by the accumulation of anthocyanins, while their absence results in yellow, orange or green fruits. In Prunus, ...
Emission of volatile organic compounds during nectarine-Monilinia laxa interaction and its relationship with fruit susceptibility to brown rot
(Elsevier, 2022-06-27)
Fruit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can be emitted by stone fruit in response to biotic stress. One of the main fungal diseases of stone fruit is brown rot, caused by species of Monilinia spp. Hence, ...
Initial characterisation of Metarhizium anisopliae CPMA1502 for the development of a biopesticide against the oil palm fruit scraper Demotispa neivai (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)
(Malaysian Palm Oil Board, 2022-12-09)
Entomopathogenic fungi are key components of biological pest control programs. Among these, Metarhizium anisopliae is one of the best-studied and has been demonstrated to be particularly effective against ...
