The multifaceted role of ABA in disease resistance
(Elsevier, 2009)
Long known only for its role in abiotic stress tolerance, recent evidence shows that abscisic acid (ABA) also has a prominent role in biotic stress. Although it acts as a negative regulator of disease resistance, ABA can ...
Can summer and fall vegetative growth regulate the incidence of Tetranychus urticae Koch on clementine fruit?
(Elsevier, 2008)
Fruit scarring caused by Tetranychus urticae is one of the main pest problems faced by Spanish clementine growers as it can downgrade the quality of the fruit completely. T. urticae infestations concentrate on fruit at the ...
Potential of an indigenous strain of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana as a biological control agent against the Red Palm Weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus
(Elsevier, 2010)
The potential of a strain of Beauveria bassiana (Ascomycota: Clavicipitaceae) obtained from a naturally infected Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) pupa as a biological control agent against this weevil ...
Replacement of CTV-susceptible sour orange rootstock by CTV-tolerant ones may have triggered outbreaks of Tetranychus urticae in Spanish citrus
(Elsevier, 2010)
The two spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) is a major pest of citrus in Spain. Commercial citrus plants are always propagated asexually by bud-grafting onto a seedling rootstock. During the ...
Common and divergent physiological, hormonal and metabolic responses of Arabidopsis thaliana and Thellungiella halophila to water and salt stress
(Elsevier, 2010)
To explain the higher tolerance of Thellungiella to abiotic stress in comparison to Arabidopsis, several studies have focused on differences in ion absorption and gene expression. However, little is known about hormone ...
