How to develop smarter host mixtures to control plant disease?
A looming challenge for agriculture is sustainable intensification of food production to feed the growing human population. Current chemical and genetic technologies used to manage plant diseases are highly vulnerable to pathogen evolution and are not sustainable. Pathogen evolution is facilitated by the genetic uniformity underlying modern agroecosystems, suggesting that one path to sustainabl...
متن کاملIntegrated Plant Disease Management in Developing Countries
Plant diseases are considered an important biotic constraint, which leads to significant crop losses worldwide. Integrated disease management (IDM), which combines biological, cultural, physical and chemical control strategies in a holistic way rather than using a single component strategy proved to be more effective and sustainable. In practice and in the majority of cropping systems today, em...
متن کاملBacteriophages for plant disease control.
The use of phages for disease control is a fast expanding area of plant protection with great potential to replace the chemical control measures now prevalent. Phages can be used effectively as part of integrated disease management strategies. The relative ease of preparing phage treatments and low cost of production of these agents make them good candidates for widespread use in developing cou...
متن کاملSMARTer discontinuation trial designs for developing an adaptive treatment strategy.
OBJECTIVE Developing evidenced-based practices for the management of childhood psychiatric disorders requires research studies that address how to treat children during both the acute phase of the disorder and beyond. Given the selection of a medication for acute treatment, discontinuation trials are used to evaluate the effects of treatment duration (e.g., time on medication) and/or maintenanc...
متن کاملBehavioural and neurophysiological responses of an insect to changing ratios of constituents in host plant-derived volatile mixtures
In the second paragraph of the ‘Chemicals and mixtures’ section on p. 3389, it is stated that the mixture mimicking bioactive peach shoot volatiles was composed of (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate, (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol, (E)-2-hexenal, benzaldehyde and benzonitrile, at ratios of 69.74:14.62:13.24:2.25:0.15 vol./vol., respectively. The proportions of the compounds in the mixture should read: 69.74:14.62:2.25:13...
