Abstract:
... Mosaic is the most widespread viral disease of fig, affecting the crop wherever it is grown. The causal agent of the disease was poorly characterized and until recently it was considered a virus-like agent with double membrane bound semispherical bodies transmitted by eriophyid mites. During the molecular characterization of the Fig mosaic virus we discovered two new closteroviruses and a new badn ...

Abstract:
... In the mutualism between figs (Ficus spp., Moraceae) and their species-specific fig wasp pollinators (Hymenoptera: Agaonidae), location of a receptive host tree by the adult insect is a critical step. The adult female wasp lives only a few days, and must usually fly to a different tree than her natal tree to locate receptive figs. Trees in receptive phase often occur at very low densities. Reprodu ...

Different fungi differed in their association with Aspergillus Section Nigri (causal agents of fig smu ...

Abstract:
... Boron is generally considered to be phloem immobile or to have only limited phloem mobility in higher plants. Evidence suggests, however, that B may be mobile in some species within the Pyrus, Malus and Prunus genera. These genera utilize sorbitol as a primary translocated photosynthate and it has been clearly demonstrated that B forms stable complexes with sorbitol in vitro. In the research prese ...

Abstract:
... Flower fragrances are important stimuli in attracting insect pollinators. Different odours attract different pollinators and can, in some cases, achieve specific relationships. Among highly specific pollination systems, the genus Ficus (Moraceae) represents one extreme example, as each Ficus is pollinated by its specific wasp species. The identification of a receptive fig occurs in two steps and c ...

Abstract:
... Pollination of the edible fig (Ficus carica cv. Calimyrna) is mediated by a small symbiotic wasp, Blastophaga psenes, that inhabits the syconium cavity of the spring crop of fig pollinator trees (caprifigs). These fig wasps also carry propagules, mainly of Fusarium verticillioides (formerly F. moniliforme) and other Fusarium spp., which cause endosepsis, from pollinator figs to the edible Calimyrn ...
