Abstract Common voles ( Microtus arvalis ) are widespread in the European agricultural landscape from central Spain to Russia. During population outbreaks, significant damage a variety of crops is caused and risk pathogen transmission people increases. In 2019, increasing or unusually high common vole densities have been reported several countries. This highly important terms food production public health. Therefore, authorities, extension services farmers need be aware rapid increase take...
The distinctness of, and overlap between, pea genotypes held in several Pisum germplasm collections has been used to determine their relatedness test previous ideas about the genetic diversity of Pisum. Our characterisation among 4,538 accessions 7 European Genebanks identified sources novel variation, both reinforces refines interpretations overall structure Molecular marker analysis was based upon presence/absence polymorphism retrotransposon insertions scored by a high-throughput...
A total of 122 accessions different wild and cultivated Pisum sp. were analysed using retrotransposon-based insertion polymorphisms (RBIP) markers. The materials included (landraces cultivars) from the World core collection John Innes Centre (JI) representing all generally recognized taxa, landraces Spanish collection, commercial pea cultivars largely sown in Spain. overall polymorphism detected by RBIP marker was high accessions, except two pairs, could be distinguished their pattern....
Common voles are a main European facultative, fossorial, farmland rodent pest that can greatly reduce crop yields during population outbreaks. Crop protection against common is complex task requires the consideration of set preventive and control measures within an integrated management strategy. A possible option could be to modify farming practices availability refuges for rodents damage crops they subsequently cause. Farming, however, must simultaneously meet multiple goals including...
Pseudomonas syringae pv. causes extensive yield losses in the pea crop worldwide, although there is little information on its host specialization and interactions with pea. A collection of 88 putative P. strains (including 39 isolated from pea) was characterized by repetitive polymerase chain reaction (rep-PCR), multilocus sequence typing (MLST), syrB amplification evaluated for pathogenicity virulence. rep-PCR data grouped into two groups (1B 1C) together other hosts; a third group (1A)...
Frost is one of the main abiotic stresses limiting plant distribution and crop production. To cope with stress, plants evolved adaptations known as cold acclimation or chilling tolerance to maximize frost tolerance. Cold a progressive acquisition freezing by subjected low non-freezing temperatures which subsequently allows them survive exposure frost. Lentil cool season grain legume that challenged winter in some areas its cultivation. better understand genetic base differential gene...
In this study, tularemia outbreaks associated with humans and several domestic wild animals (Iberian hares, rabbits, voles, mice, grey shrews, sheep, dogs, foxes, wolves, ticks, river crayfish) are reported in Spain from 2007 to 2020. Special attention was paid the 2007–2009 2014–2015, when most important waves occurred. Moreover, positive rates of lagomorphs were detected 2007–2010, followed by negative results 2011–2013, before again returning 2014 2017 2019–2020. Lagomorphs role spreading...
A total of 242 Pisum accessions were screened for resistance to Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi under controlled conditions. Resistance was found all races, including race 6 and the recently described 8. Fifty‐eight further tested P. conditions, with some highly resistant identified. Finally, a set 41 evaluated spring‐ winter‐sowing field R2 , R3 R4 race‐specific genes protected pea plants in field. sources identified conditions ineffective Frost effects also relation disease response. Results...
Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi is a seedborne pathogen distributed worldwide that causes pea bacterial blight. Previous characterization of this has been carried out with relatively small and/or geographically limited samples. Here, collection 91 strains are examined include from recent outbreaks in Spain (53 strains) and 14 other countries, represent all races the new race 8, including type strains. This was characterized on basis 55 nutritional tests, genetic analysis (rep‐PCR,...
A new and sensitive analytical method is presented to determine nine anticoagulant rodenticide (chlorophacinone, bromadiolone, pindone, diphacinone, warfarin, coumatetralyl, brodifacoum, floucomafen, difenacoum) residues in water soil samples by LC-ESI-MS. Rodenticides were extracted from using a methanol ammonium formate 30 mM mixture, while ethyl acetate was employed the samples. Gemini 5 μm C18 column employed, mobile phase comprising mixture of di-n-butylamine (pH 3.5), 20 4.4), 6.5),...
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik. subsp. culinaris) is a traditional crop in Spain although current grain yield relatively low and unstable. The effect of an early sowing date (winter sowing) on the Spanish Central Plateau (meseta) was analyzed comparing it to spring sowing. Yield from eleven cultivars currently available for two F6:7 populations recombinant inbred lines (RIL), ´Precoz´ × ´WA8649041´ (89 lines) ´BGE016365´ ´ILL1918´ (118 lines), evaluated winter dates three seasons (2005/06,...
Real-time polymerase chain reaction is currently being used for the identification and quantification of plant animal species as well microorganisms in food or feed samples based on amplification specific sequences low copy genes. We report here development a new real-time PCR method detection pea (Pisum sativum) region legS gene. The specificity was evaluated wide range (51 varieties Pisum sp., 32 other taxonomically related nonrelated). allows 21.6 pg DNA, which corresponds to 5 haploid...
Common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) is an important legume crop used for livestock feed in the Mediterranean Area. This has role sustainable agriculture dryland rotations Spain, where Castilla y León Region major production area. During springs of 2007 and 2008, necrotic lesions on stems, leaves, flowers were observed five different common plots around Medina de Rioseco (Castilla León). Four sown with cv. Buza. No information was available about cultivar fifth plot. In many cases, had expanded...
Because production of dry peas (Pisum sativum L.) is increasing in Spain, disease surveys were carried out from 2004 to 2006 Castilla y Leon, the largest pea-producing region. In May 2004, a leaf and stem blight caused an estimated 25% loss yield pea (cv. Messire) fields El Cerrato (Palencia). Bacteria isolated on King's B medium 10 symptomatic plants different (3). Thirty gram-negative isolates produced fluorescent, yellowish mucoid colonies. All showed oxidative glucose metabolism...
The common vole has invaded the agroecosystems of northwestern Spain, where outbreaks cause important crop damage and management costs. Little is yet known about factors causing or modulating fluctuations. Here, we used 11 years abundance monitoring data in 40 sites to study density-dependence weather influence on dynamics. Our objective was identify population dynamics structure determine whether there direct delayed density-dependence. An evaluation climatic variables followed, they...
The common vole (Microtus arvalis) is a very destructive agricultural pest. Particularly in Europe, its monitoring essential not only for adequate management and outbreak forecasting, but also accurately determining the vole's impact on affected fields. In this study, several alternatives estimating damage to alfalfa fields by voles through unmanned vehicle systems (UASs) multispectral cameras are presented. Currently, both farmers agencies involved integrated pest (IPM) programs of do have...
