Infection efficiency is a key epidemiological parameter that determines the proportion of pathogen spores able to infect and cause lesions once they have landed on a susceptible plant tissue. In this study, an improved method to measure infection efficiency of Zymoseptoria tritici using a replicated greenhouse experiment is presented. Zymoseptoria tritici is a fungal pathogen that infects wheat leaves...
Adaptation of plant pathogens to disease control measures (both chemical and genetic) is facilitated by the genetic uniformity underlying modern agroecosystems. One path to sustainable disease control lies in increasing genetic diversity at the field scale by using genetically diverse host mixtures. In this study, a robust population dynamics approach was used to model how host mixtures could improve...
Summary form only given. By doping a helium nanodroplet with a handful of heavier xenon atoms it can be turned into a highly reactive object which absorbs infrared light very effectively. This finding is unexpected since the pristine droplet cannot be ionized at all with laser light of 780 nm wavelength at an intensity of around 1014 W/cm2 which we will apply. Yet, with a few xenon atoms inside, all...
