As a bioaccumulative and carcinogenic compound, mirex at its current levels in Lake Ontario is a concern because of the potential for trophic level transfer and biomagnification in top predators. As a part of the NOAA’s National Status and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Diversity as a Biological Control Mechanism for Fruit Tree Diseases: A Comparative ApproachZhichao TangThe traditional methods of fruit tree pest control have long relied on chemical pesticides. This not only leads to increased resistance of pests and diseases but also adversely affects the ecological environment and fruit safety. Although biological control has gradually received attention, the current research on how to systematically use microbial diversity to achieve efficient control and prevention is still … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2026 · 1,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioactivity of Sumac (Rhus Coriaria) Extract as a Green Alternative for Plant Pathogen InhibitionMohammed H. Al-Mamoori, Meisam Zargar, Elena N. Pakina, Fatih DadaşoğluEnvironmental stress caused by pathogenic fungi leads to considerable losses in global crop productivity. Plant-derived extracts are eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives that can inhibit biotic stresses. Sumac (Rhus coriaria) is widely used in industrial and medicinal applications due to its extract rich in secondary metabolites, similar to those found in chemical pesticides and pharmaceuticals. This study aimed to characterize the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 25 Nov 2025 · 2,211 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBotanic Products as a Sustainable Alternative in the Control of Rice and Grape Pests in South AmericaRicardo Diego Duarte Galhardo de Albuquerque, Frank Romel Leon-Vargas, Carmen Cerdeña del Aguila et al.Pests present a major threat to agricultural crops, leading to diminished yields, economic losses, and potential food insecurity. In South America, rice and grape cultivation have become increasingly significant due to their economic value, contribution to food security, and role in exports. However, these crops are vulnerable to pests such as Oebalus poecilus, Hydrellia wirthi, and Pseudococcus viburni. The reliance … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 19 Feb 2025 · 5,315 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcofriendly Management of Two Spotted Spider Mites on Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum (Mill.) in Eastern EthiopiaBelachew DabaloOne of the most widely grown vegetable crops in Ethiopia is the tomato (Solanum lycopersicon). Two Spotted Spider Mites (TSSM) are the primary pests that pose a threat to tomato production in Eastern Ethiopia. Synthetic pesticides remain the primary method of controlling TSSM, but because of the pest's high fecundity, inbreeding, arrhenotokous reproduction, high mutation rate, and short life cycle, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 12 Oct 2024 · 6,347 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBio-Exploration of Plant Growth-Promoting Fungus Trichoderma as a Potent Candidate for Plant Disease Management: An OverviewMd. Tanbir Rubayet, Md. Motaher HossainChemical pesticides are widely used to control plant diseases, but their widespread use can have a detrimental impact on the environment and human health. This has led researchers and growers to seek out alternative solutions. One promising approach is the use of the Plant Growth-Promoting Fungus (PGPF) Trichoderma spp. as a biological control agent. This method is effective, cost-efficient, and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 21 Sep 2024 · 5,111 accessesView PDFCite
