Preface Citrus huanglongbing (HLB) is a complex, challenging, and devastating disease that threatens a major United States crop despite intense management efforts. Research on HLB over the past decade has involved scientists, growers, industry representatives, regulators, and administrators who have explored multiple fac- ets of the disease syndrome and the many environmental, horticultural, sociological, and economic factors that impact it. This National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine study committee, follow- ing its Statement of Task to review and assess these research efforts, has relied upon many sources of information including refereed scientific journal articles, extension publications, websites, presentations

Details are given for substances with IC50 values £ 11 mM. Key findings Malaria is a major parasitic disease in many tropical and subtropical regions and is responsible for more than 1 million deaths each year in Africa. The rapid spread of resistance encourages the search for new active compounds. Nature and particularly plants used in traditional medicine are a potential source of new antimalarial drugs as they contain molecules with a great variety of structures and pharmacological activities. Summary A large number of antimalarial compounds with a wide variety of structures have been isolated from plants and can play a role in the development of new antimalarial drugs. Ethnopharmacological approaches appear to be a promising way to find plant metabolites that could be used as templates for designing new derivatives with improved properties. Keywords antiplasmodial; malaria; plant compounds; Plasmodium falciparum; traditional medicine Introduction Malaria is a parasitic disease caused by Plasmodium species transmitted from the blood of an infected person and passed to a healthy human by a female Anopheles mosquito.

  • Inventory and Review of Quantitative Models for Spread of Plant Pests for Use in Pest Risk Assessment for the EU Territory1
    EFSA supporting publication 2015:EN-795 EXTERNAL SCIENTIFIC REPORT Inventory and review of quantitative models for spread of plant pests for use in pest risk assessment for the EU territory1 NERC Centre for Ecology and Hydrology 2 Maclean Building, Benson Lane, Crowmarsh Gifford, Wallingford, OX10 8BB, UK ABSTRACT This report considers the prospects for increasing the use of quantitative models for plant pest spread and dispersal in EFSA Plant Health risk assessments. The agreed major aims were to provide an overview of current modelling approaches and their strengths and weaknesses for risk assessment, and to develop and test a system for risk assessors to select appropriate models for application. First, we conducted an extensive literature review, based on protocols developed for systematic reviews. The review located 468 models for plant pest spread and dispersal and these were entered into a searchable and secure Electronic Model Inventory database. A cluster analysis on how these models were formulated allowed us to identify eight distinct major modelling strategies that were differentiated by the types of pests they were used for and the ways in which they were parameterised and analysed. These strategies varied in their strengths and weaknesses, meaning that no single approach was the most useful for all elements of risk assessment. Therefore we developed a Decision Support Scheme (DSS) to guide model selection. The DSS identifies the most appropriate strategies by weighing up the goals of risk assessment and constraints imposed by lack of data or expertise. Searching and filtering the Electronic Model Inventory then allows the assessor to locate specific models within those strategies that can be applied.

The main hosts of economic importance are Citrus spp., especially oranges (C. sinensis) but the insect has also been recorded on a wide range of other crops, mostly fruit crops and ornamentals, including Annona muricata, bananas (Musa paradisiaca), Capsicum, coconuts (Cocos nucifera), guavas (Psidium guajava), Hibiscus, jackfruits (Artocarpus heterophyllus), kumquats (Fortunella), pineapples (Ananas comosus), Poncirus trifoliata and Tillandsia usneoides. The main potential hosts in the EPPO region are Citrus spp. growing in the southern part of the region, around the Mediterranean. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION U. citri originated in Asia and has spread widely in tropical and subtropical regions. EPPO region: A closely related species, the arrowhead scale (Unaspis yanonensis (Kuwana)), also a pest of citrus, has recently been introduced into France and possibly into Italy (EPPO/CABI, 1996). Specimens of U. citri were collected in Portugal (Azores) in the 1920s, but there have been no records since; there is no suggestion that the pest is established there now. There has recently been an isolated record in Malta.

Hawaii 96822 and Plant Production and Protection Division. Food and Agriculture Organization. Rome. Italy The armored scales (Family Diaspididae) constitute one of the most successful groups of plant-parasitic arthropods and include some of the most damaging and refractory pests of perennial crops and ornamentals. The Diaspididae is the largest and most specialized of the dozen or so currently recognized families which compose the superfamily Coccoidea. A recent world catalog (19) lists 338 valid genera and approximately 1700 species of armored scales. Although the diaspidids have been more intensively studied than any other group of coccids, probably no more than half of the existing forms have been recognized and named. Armored scales occur virtually everywhere perennial vascular plants are found, although a few of the most isolated oceanic islands (e.g. the Hawaiian group) apparently have no endemic representatives and are populated entirely by recent adventives. In general. the greatest numbers and diversity of genera and species occur in the tropics. subtropics. and warmer portions of the temperate zones.

    Plant Systematics and Evolution (2020) 306:7 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00606-020-01633-3 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Phylogenetic placement of Ivodea and biogeographic afnities of Malagasy Rutaceae Marc S. Appelhans1,2 · Jun Wen2 Received: 6 December 2018 / Accepted: 8 January 2020 / Published online: 1 February 2020 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract The genus Ivodea is endemic to Madagascar and the Comoros and consists of 30 species. This study is the frst to include the genus in a molecular phylogenetic analysis. We sequenced the plastid trnL–trnF and the nuclear ITS regions for three Ivodea species and revealed that the genus is monophyletic and most closely related to the African and Malagasy Vepris, refuting earlier suggestions of a close relationship between Ivodea and the Asian, Malesian, Australasian and Pacifc genera Euodia and Melicope. Ivodea and Vepris provide another example of closely related pairs of Rutaceous groups that have drupaceous and capsular/follicular fruits, respectively, thus further confrming that fruit types are not suited to delimit sub- families in Rutaceae, as has often been done in the past. Ivodea was the last of the seven Malagasy genera to be included in the Rutaceae phylogeny, making it possible to conduct an assessment of biogeographic afnities of the genera that occur on the island. Our assessments based on sister-group relationships suggest that the eight lineages (representing seven genera) of Malagasy Rutaceae either have African or have Asian afnities. Two lineages have an African origin, and one lineage has an Asian origin. Taxon sampling is insufcient to interpret the directionality of dispersal events in the remaining lineages.
