1. Development of a Label-free Electrochemical Biosensor for Detection of Infectious Hepatitis a VirusOne of the leading causes of foodborne viral illnesses in the world is Hepatitis A Virus, which is frequently involved in causing outbreaks linked to contaminated produce and shellfish (e.g., green onions and berries) due to contamination during cultivation, processing, or handling. HAV is highly stable in environment capable of remaining infectious on food matrices and in water for extended periods. Humans get infected primarily via the fecal-oral route... D. Kaur, R.P.

2. Soil Factors Affecting Severity of Verticillium Wilt in Kiwifruit (Actinidia Deliciosa)Verticillium wilt, caused by the soil-borne fungal pathogens Verticillium albo-atrum and V. dahliae, represents a highly destructive vascular disease in kiwifruit, with pronounced impact on gold kiwi (Actinidia chinensis). The disease manifests as acute wilting, shoot dieback, foliar necrosis, and, in severe cases, complete plant mortality. Conversely, green kiwi (Actinidia deliciosa) exhibits greater resistance to Verticillium wilt; while the disease does not typically cause vine death, it adversely... H. Poblete, R.A. Ortega, M.M.

3. Spatial Variability of Biochemical Soil Properties and Its Relationship to Physical and Chemical Properties and Vegetation IndicesBiochemical soil properties, particularly enzymatic activity, are increasingly recognised as important indicators of soil quality within the context of regenerative agriculture. However, limited information exists regarding the spatial variability of these properties in fruit orchards at varying scales, as well as their relationships with other soil characteristics, such as texture and soil organic matter, and with plant quality. This study aimed to investigate the spatial variability... R.A. Ortega, M.M. Martinez, H. Poblete, I. Ortega |
