The bactericide zhongshengmycin, used in Xinjiang for more than 30 years to control bacterial plant diseases, currently faces a low resistance risk from Erwinia amylovora, the pathogen behind pear fire blight. Fire blight is one of the most destructive bacterial diseases…
A single-season field trial in semi-arid India found that organic and integrated management with Ghanajeevamrut, Beejamrut and mulching maintained larger soil nitrogen pools and higher microbial activity than conventional fertilization.
A 35-member trained panel in Zacatecas, Mexico, profiled 41 sensory attributes across three prickly pear cultivars, identifying distinct aromatic and textural identities and proposing a preliminary sensory wheel for the species.
