Abstract This article documents the addition of 220 microsatellite marker loci to Molecular Ecology Resources Database. Loci were developed for following species: Allanblackia floribunda, Amblyraja radiata, Bactrocera cucurbitae, Brachycaudus helichrysi, Calopogonium mucunoides, Dissodactylus primitivus, Elodea canadensis, Ephydatia fluviatilis, Galapaganus howdenae howdenae, Hoplostethus atlanticus, Ischnura elegans, Larimichthys polyactis, Opheodrys vernalis, Pelteobagrus fulvidraco,...
Sour rot, a disease affecting berries of cultivated Vitis spp. worldwide, has not been clearly defined. Reported symptoms the include browning berry skin, oozing disintegrated pulp, and smell acetic acid, all in presence fruit flies (Drosophila spp.). We determined acid concentrations multiple collections symptomatic berries, isolated identified microbes from them, inoculated commonly organisms into healthy with without concurrent exposure to wild-type or axenic Drosophila melanogaster....
Recent advances in distributed information technologies are providing the means to capture and process abundant data, reveal associations between variables describing crop-environment-management interaction. This review describes determinants moderating factors influencing how much value a crop producer his or her advisor can derive from derived data. We describe social, technological, entrepreneurial processes needed progress nonlinear pathway data an on-farm decision, explore meaning of...
Twenty six populations of potato cyst-nematodes from Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia were examined identified as Heterodera rostochiensis Woll. or H. pallida Stone. North 15.6°S only was found, but south this latitude most a mixture the two species. Possible reasons for distribution species being dependent on are discussed, particularly influence daylength.
Summary Potato cyst nematodes (PCN) have been known to occur in the UK for nearly a hundred years. They are most problematic pests of potatoes and can cause severe yield losses. Previous work has shown two species, Globodera rostochiensis G pallida , be distributed throughout UK. This paper reports results first structured statistically unbiased survey undertaken assess their occurrence distribution potato growing land England Wales. The showed that PCN were present 64% sites sampled. Of...
An apparatus which uses a controlled water current passing through sintered plate to separate nematodes from soil particles is described. Nematodes of all types and sizes can be extracted, the particularly useful for extracting white Heterodera females. Construction simple, so cheap, robust valuable where only limited facilities are available. It may prove other small invertebrates, or their eggs.
Ten commercial potato cultivars, one resistant to Globodera rostochiensis Ro1 and the others susceptible, were grown on two sites, heavily infested with G. other uninfested. The only cultivar, Maris Piper, suffered least yield loss; of susceptible cultivars Pentland Crown loss early maturing Peer most. degree tolerance nematode attack was related amount calcium accumulated in dry matter plants growing uninfested site this relationship may have been due efficiency which different used water....
Botrytis bunch rot (botrytis) can reduce grape yield and wine quality Standardised assessment methods are needed to allow greater precision in making the use of disease management decision support models production This study developed a botrytis key assist accuracy visual Associated computer training software designed improve assessments was also tested The mean absolute error estimates percentage severity significantly (P
We inoculated muskmelon leaves with a conidial suspension of Alternaria cucumerina and subjected the to various controlled environments determine influence temperature leaf wetness duration on disease establishment. Disease severity, as measured by «number lesion area equivalents» method, increased increasing dur- ation (2-24 h) at all temperatures tested (12-30 C). The optimum was 18 C, least 8 h were required for significant establishment 15-21 C (...)
Abstract Plant pathogens are playing an increasing role in classical biological control of weeds worldwide. This paper presents explicit framework consisting various interconnected steps to facilitate and streamline the selection process for pathogen agents. It also highlights discusses critical issues associated with such as climatic‐matching approach find well‐adapted agents, host–pathogen matching genetic structure. Processes relating then contrasted those usually adopted arthropod weed...

Background and Aims. Botrytis bunch rot (BBR) in cool temperate climates is a key constraint to the consistent supply of grapes winery specifications. BBR severities have been correlated with specific environmental conditions; however, data-driven applications intended support crop protection decisions are restricted access and/or unknown commercial value. The aims this study were evaluate variables providing within-vineyard awareness risk Riesling vines. Methods Results. Descriptors...
