Pseudomonas leaf spot (PLS) disease in peppers caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Pss) is an emerging seedborne phytopathogen. Pss infection can severely reduce the marketable yield of peppers in favorable environmental conditions and cause significant economic losses. The intensive use of copper-sulfate and streptomycin-sulfate to contro...
Udomačitev je proces, s katerim človek preko umetne selekcije in vzreje divjih vrst pride do novih, udomačenih vrst. Ključna značilnost udomačitve je prilagoditev fenotipa na ustvarjene okoljske niše na račun aktivnosti človeka in poudarjanje lastnosti, ki jih favorizira tako okolje. Z raziskavo smo želeli fenotipsko okarakterizirata dva rodova kva...

Many Stramenopile species belonging to oomycetes from the genus Saprolegnia infect fish, amphibians, and crustaceans in aquaculture farms and natural ecosystems. Saprolegnia parasitica is one of the most severe fish pathogens, responsible for high losses in the aquaculture industry worldwide. Most of the molecules reported to date for the control o...

Insecticide resistance has become problematic in tropical and subtropical regions, where Aedes mosquitoes and Aedes -borne arboviral diseases thrive. With the recent occurrence of chikungunya and the Zika virus in Jamaica, the Ministry of Health and Wellness, Jamaica, partnered with the United States Agency for International Development to implemen...
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of sequential applications of plant regulators on growth and seedhead emergence of Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum). The study was carried out on a 15-month-old lawn, in a randomized block design, with four replicates. The treatments consisted of the following plant-growth regulators and dose: trinexapacethyl in...

Alternatives to growth inhibitors for pot plants are welcome. Scientific research points to cultivation practises that can inhibit growth. These offer possibilities where breeding fails to provide a solution.
LED-licht kan als energiebesparende techniek extra meerwaarde krijgen als het ook lukt om met de verschillende kleuren binnen het spectrum de plantkwaliteit te sturen. Voor potplanten zou met name sturen op compactheid een uitkomst zijn. Daarom heeft een onderzoeksteam de korte dag planten kalanchoë en potchrysant onder een vergrootglas gelegd. Daa...

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, fibrotic lung disease with no clear etiology and few therapeutic options. Growth factors that act as mediators in the development of this disease might be important therapeutic targets. Nintedanib is a triple-tyrosine kinase inhibitor and a potent antagonist of growth factors such as pl...
