Crop Production 12/11/2012 Crop Production ISSN: 1936-3737 Released December 11, 2012, by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), Agricultural Statistics Board, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Cotton Production Down 1 Percent from November Forecast Orange Production Down 4 Percent from October Forecast All cotton production is forecast at 17.3 million 480-pound bales, down 1 percent from last month but up 11 percent from last year. Yield is expected to average 793 pounds per acre, up 3 pounds from last year. Upland cotton production is forecast at 16.6 million 480-pound bales, up 13 percent from 2011. Pima cotton production, forecast at 657,000 bales, was carried forward from last month. The United States all orange forecast for the 2012-2013 season is 9.01 million tons, down 4 percent from the previous forecast and down fractionally from the 2011-2012 final utilization. The Florida all orange forecast, at 146 million boxes (6.57 million tons), is down 5 percent from the October forecast and down slightly from last season’s final utilization. Early, midseason, and Navel varieties in Florida are forecast at 67.0 million boxes (3.02 million tons), down 9 percent from the October forecast and down 10 percent from last season. Projected droppage is the highest since the 1969-1970 season while size is projected to be below average. The Florida Valencia orange forecast, at 79.0 million boxes (3.56 million tons), is down 1 percent from the October forecast but up 9 percent from the 2011-2012 crop. California and Texas orange production forecasts are carried forward from October. Florida frozen concentrated orange juice (FCOJ) yield forecast for the 2012-2013 season is 1.61 gallons per box at 42.0 degrees Brix, unchanged from the October forecast, but down 1 percent from last season’s final yield of 1.63 gallons per box. Projected yield for the 2012-2013 early-midseason and late varieties will be published in the January Crop Production report. All projections of yield assume the processing relationships this season will be similar to those of the past several seasons. This report was approved on December 11, 2012.

    Crop Production ISSN: 1936-3737 Released September 12, 2011, by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), Agricultural Statistics Board, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Corn Production Down 3 Percent from August Forecast Soybean Production Up 1 Percent Cotton Production Up Fractionally Corn production is forecast at 12.5 billion bushels, down 3 percent from the August forecast but up fractionally from 2010. If realized, this will be the third largest production total on record for the United States. Based on conditions as of September 1, yields are expected to average 148.1 bushels per acre, down 4.9 bushels from the August 1 forecast and down 4.7 bushels from 2010. If realized, this will be the lowest average yield in the United States since 2005. Soybean production is forecast at 3.09 billion bushels, up 1 percent from August but down 7 percent from last year. Based on September 1 conditions, yields are expected to average 41.8 bushels per acre, up 0.4 bushel from last month but down 1.7 bushels from last year. Compared with last month, yield forecasts are higher in the Central Great Plains and along much of the Atlantic Coast. If realized, the forecasted yield in Nebraska will be a record high. Yield forecasts are below last month across the Southern Great Plains and portions of the Southeast as hot, dry conditions persisted during August. Area for harvest in the United States is forecast at 73.8 million acres, unchanged from August but down 4 percent from 2010. All cotton production is forecast at 16.6 million 480-pound bales, up fractionally from last month but down 9 percent from last year.

  • Biological and Molecular Characterization of Potato Yellow Blotch Virus, a New Species of the Genus Potyvirus
    Plant Pathology (2019) 68, 251–260 Doi: 10.1111/ppa.12943 Biological and molecular characterization of Potato yellow blotch virus, a new species of the genus Potyvirus C. Nisbet* , W. A. Monger, S. Ross, R. F. Holmes, Y. Nova, C. Thomson, H. A. Goodfellow, C. Lacomme and C. J. Jeffries SASA, Roddinglaw Road, Edinburgh, EH12 9FJ, UK A new species of the genus Potyvirus infecting potatoes, with the proposed name Potato yellow blotch virus (PYBV), was discovered in a breeding line 99m-022-026 in Scotland. The infected plants show isolated yellow blotches on the leaves. The genome of PYBV contains a large open reading frame encoding a single polyprotein of 3054 amino acids. Sequence analysis shows that PYBV is closely related to Potato virus A (PVA), with an overall 72% identity at the nucleotide level for the whole genome. The least conserved P1 protease gene shares only 50% nucleotide identity with PVA. The host range of PYBV was comparable to PVA on solanaceaous and non-solanaceous indicator plant species with the exception of Solanum demissum A and Y. Different symptoms were also observed for PYBV and PVA in Nicotiana benthamiana, Nicotiana hesperis and Nicotiana occidentalis P1. The susceptibility of potato (Solanum tuberosum) cultivars to PYBV and PVA was similar. In over 5 years of investigation, PYBV has not been found in com- mercial seed and ware potato crops in Scotland. Keywords: diagnosis, host range, incidence, new potyvirus, potato, Potato yellow blotch virus Introduction of PVY (type member of the genus) is composed of two open reading frames (ORFs), a major ORF encoding a Viruses have co-evolved with their hosts in order to adapt single large polyprotein (c.
