Efficacy of fungicides against peanut smut in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2020-09-28)Peanut smut, caused by Thecaphora frezii, increased its incidence and prevalence in the main growing region of Argentina in the last decade becoming the main peanut disease. Despite this fact, growers continue producing ... -
Examples of Risk Tools for Pests in Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) Developed for Five Countries Using Microsoft Excel
(Entomological Society of America, 2022-08-03)Suppressing pest populations below economically-damaging levels is an important element of sustainable peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production. Peanut farmers and their advisors often approach pest management with similar ... -
Exploring species composition and population dynamics of thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) in peanut crops in Argentina
(Springer, 2021-04-26)Thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) are major pests of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.). They cause feeding damage and indirect injuries transmitting plant viruses. In Argentina, peanut is commonly affected by thrips. The crop ... -
Low water availability increases susceptibility to peanut smut (Thecaphora frezzii) in peanut crop
(Wiley, 2023-10-23)Peanut smut (causal agent Thecaphora frezzii) and seasonal drought are the two main factors reducing peanut yields in Argentina. There are no previous studies about the effect of drought on peanut smut occurrence. We ... -
Molecular detection of Thecaphora frezzi in peanut (Arachis Hypogaea L.) seeds
(2016)Thecaphora frezii is the causal agent of peanut smut, important disease in the Argentine production area. The pathogen can be dispersed by kernels, through surface contamination or small lesions. The aim of this work was ... -
Molecular sequence data of Thecaphora frezii affecting peanut crops in Argentina
(Springer, 2013-12)In Argentina, Thecaphora frezii is the causal agent of peanut smut, causing severe yield losses in peanut growing areas. In this work sequence data of the large ribosomal subunit (28S rDNA) of four T. frezii specimens from ... -
Orthotospovirus disease epidemic: molecular characterization and incidence in peanut crops
(Springer, 2020-10-13)Argentina is one of the main peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) exporting countries with the major peanut-growing area located in the province of Córdoba. During the 2015–2016 growing season, severe outbreaks of an orthotospovirus-like ... -
Peanut Smut : from an emerging disease to an actual threat to Argentine Peanut production
