Management of yellow dwarf disease in Europe in a post‐neonicotinoid agriculture     

Louise Mc Namara  Kevin Gauthier  Lael Walsh  Gaël Thbaud  Michael Gaffney  Emmanuel Jacquot 《Pest management science》2020,76(7):2276-2285

Barley/cereal yellow dwarf viruses (YDVs) cause yellow dwarf disease (YDD), which is a continuous risk to cereals production worldwide. These viruses cause leaf yellowing and stunting, resulting in yield reductions of up to 80%. YDVs have been a consistent but low‐level problem in European cereal cultivation for the last three decades, mostly due to the availability of several effective insecticides (largely pyrethroids and more recently neonicotinoids) against aphid vectors. However, this has changed recently, with many insecticides being lost, culminating in a recent European Union (EU) regulation prohibiting outdoor use of the neonicotinoid‐insecticide compounds. This change is coupled with the growing challenge of insecticide‐resistant aphids, the lack of genetic resources against YDVs, and a knowledge deficit around the parameters responsible for the emergence and spread of YDD. This means that economic sustainability of cereal cultivation in several European countries including France and United Kingdom is now again threatened by this aphid‐vectored viral disease. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the YDV pathosystem, describe management options against YDD, analyse the impacts of the neonicotinoid ban in Europe, and consider future strategies to control YDV. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献   

Photosynthesis of a scots pine shoot: simulation of the irradiance distribution and photosynthesis of a shoot in different radiation fields     

Pauline Oker-Blom 《Agricultural and Forest Meteorology》1985,34(1):31-40

Using a model of shoot geometry the distribution of irradiance at the needle surface area of a shoot in different radiation conditions is simulated and shoot photosynthesis calculated. It is shown that the distribution of irradiance is very sensitive to radiation field geometry, affecting the efficiency of the utilization of radiant energy in photosynthesis. As a result, the photosynthetic response of a shoot in natural conditions is, for instance, highly dependent on the proportions of direct and diffuse solar radiation, being higher the greater is the proportion of diffuse radiation.  相似文献

Éléments de biologie chez Nacobbus aberrans (Thorne, 1935) Thorne & Allen, 1944 (Nematoda: Pratylenchidae): 2 – Capacités de développement sur hôtes en conditions in vivo et in vitro     

G. Anthoine  A. Buisson  J. P. Gauthier  D. Mugniéry 《EPPO Bulletin》2006,36(2):365-372

La présente étude, portant sur quatre populations sud-américaines de N. aberrans , s'est attachée à comprendre les capacités de multiplication de ce nématode en conditions in vitro (plante développée sur milieu gélosé) et en conditions in vivo (plante développée en pot). Le développement in vitro de N. aberrans est possible dans une gamme non exhaustive de température de 10°C à 25°C, avec un optimum à 20°C, sur de nombreuses plantes d'intérêt agronomique. Toutefois, cette capacité in vitro varie d'une population à une autre et est fortement conditionnée par la pénétration du nématode au stade J2 dans les racines. Les essais in vivo ont montré que la betterave et la tomate sont de très bons hôtes pour toutes les populations testées, alors que d'autres cultures sont favorables à certaines populations (pomme de terre et populations «race pomme de terre>>, poivron et populations «race betterave>>). Enfin, certaines plantes bien que ne présentant pas de symptômes de parasitisme (galles) sont capables d'héberger le nématode en lui permettant d'atteindre le stade J4 sans pour autant réaliser son cycle biologique en entier, ni se reproduire (haricot, concombre). Ces éléments biologiques soulignent le risque réel et majeur d'établissement pour la zone européenne de N. aberrans en cas d'introduction, nématode apte à se développer sur de nombreuses plantes, quel qu'en soit le mode de culture et parfois en l'absence de tout symptôme.  相似文献

A novel epidemiological model to better understand and predict the observed seasonal spread of Pestivirus in Pyrenean chamois populations     

Ga?l Beaunée  Emmanuelle Gilot-Fromont  Mathieu Garel  Pauline Ezanno 《Veterinary research》2015,46(1)

Seasonal variations in individual contacts give rise to a complex interplay between host demography and pathogen transmission. This is particularly true for wild populations, which highly depend on their natural habitat. These seasonal cycles induce variations in pathogen transmission. The seasonality of these biological processes should therefore be considered to better represent and predict pathogen spread. In this study, we sought to better understand how the seasonality of both the demography and social contacts of a mountain ungulate population impacts the spread of a pestivirus within, and the dynamics of, this population. We propose a mathematical model to represent this complex biological system. The pestivirus can be transmitted both horizontally through direct contact and vertically in utero. Vertical transmission leads to abortion or to the birth of persistently infected animals with a short life expectancy. Horizontal transmission involves a complex dynamics because of seasonal variations in contact among sexes and age classes. We performed a sensitivity analysis that identified transmission rates and disease-related mortality as key parameters. We then used data from a long-term demographic and epidemiological survey of the studied population to estimate these mostly unknown epidemiological parameters. Our model adequately represents the system dynamics, observations and model predictions showing similar seasonal patterns. We show that the virus has a significant impact on population dynamics, and that persistently infected animals play a major role in the epidemic dynamics. Modeling the seasonal dynamics allowed us to obtain realistic prediction and to identify key parameters of transmission.

Local and remote physical processes driving variability of the planktonic system in the Juan Fernández Archipelago: A multidisciplinary framework providing conservation insights

1. The Juan Fernandez Ridge, a vulnerable marine ecosystem located far off the coast of central Chile and formed by several seamounts, guyots and three islands (Robinson Crusoe, Santa Clara and Alejandro Selkirk), has recently been declared a Coastal Marine Protected Area of Multiple Uses with several National Parks embedded in it.
2. Recent studies have highlighted the influence of remote and local oceanographic structures on the hydrographic dynamics of this ridge. However, there is still a gap in understanding how they affect the structure and dynamics of the surrounding insular planktonic communities.
3. A hydroacoustic and oceanographic survey was conducted during the austral spring (October 2016), including hydrographic and zooplankton sampling around Robinson Crusoe Island. Oceanographic features were identified and tracked using satellite data (chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) and sea surface temperature) and modelling results.
4. Two events of Chl-a increase relative to a threshold (>0.45 mg m⁻³) were forced by different physical processes, both affecting the western side of Robinson Crusoe Island. In event A during the cruise period, Chl-a subsurface maxima were associated with the arrival of a coastal meander originating on the continental shelf off Chile (remote process); the zooplankton was dominated by copepods and salps, with an evident coastal–oceanic gradient. In event B, Chl-a maxima were linked to a local upwelling forced by the intensification of a localized SSW wind. No influence of remote eddies or local Von Kármán vortices on Chl-a distribution was observed.
5. These findings highlight the influence of remote and local physical processes on the structure of planktonic communities around Robinson Crusoe Island. Understanding the variability of these mechanisms and their effects at the base of the pelagic food web is critical in adopting an ecosystem-level approach.
