“…Grinstein et al found that a 4 s exposure of the pods to a butane-air flame at 740 • C eradicated the pathogen, and even a 6 s exposure did not affect seed vitality or output. This soil flame treatment also significantly reduced the infection of other seed-borne fungi-e.g., Aspergillus niger and Rhizopus stolonifera-in the laboratory and in an open-field experiment [93].…”

Diseases and pests are important factors in vegetable cultivation; they not only affect the growth and appearance of vegetables but also affect the yield and quality. The disease and pest control of vegetables is dominated by chemical sprays, for now. As a result, the excessive use of pesticides has been a crucial factor of pesticides’ non-point source pollution, and it is also the main cause of excessive pesticide residues in vegetables. Therefore, the design of efficient plant protection machinery and technology has become an urgent demand in order to ensure the quality and safety of vegetables. In this review, the machinery and technologies for vegetable protection are introduced from the aspects of chemical control and physical control. In the aspect of chemical control, handheld sprayers, self-propelled or track sprayers, fixed-pipe spray systems, vertical and horizontal boom sprayers, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and vegetable seed treatment techniques are introduced. In the aspect of physical control, soil physical disinfection, pest trapping technologies and ozone sterilizers are introduced. Finally, the existing problems and perspectives of pesticide application sprayers and physical control equipment for vegetables are summarized. This paper can provide references for vegetable growers and researchers.

“…However, since the in‐shell peanut market is strongly dependent on the appearance of the shells, a high degree of infection directly affects market values, endangering entire local industries. Cases of severe damage from PW have also been reported in Egypt, South Africa, and the United States (Kritzman et al, 1996; de Klerk et al, 1997; Grinstein et al, 1997).…”

“…The causal agents of PW are most probably soil‐borne filamentous bacteria from the Streptomyces genus (Grinstein et al, 1997). While most Streptomyces are saprophytic, a few species like Streptomyces scabies have acquired the ability to infect underground plant tissues.…”

“…There are several existing treatments that control PW of peanut under field conditions. Grinstein et al (1997) showed that exposing pods to a butane-air flame at 740°C before sowing reduces both the appearance of microflora on the pod surface and the amount of PW in the soil. Soil sterilization with formaldehyde is an often-used commercial treatment against PW, even though it is expensive and occasionally ineffective.…”

Identification and Genetic Evaluation of a New Source of Pod Wart Resistance for Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.)

et al. 2017

Pod wart disease severely damages in‐shell peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production in areas in which peanut is routinely rotated with potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). It is caused by soil‐borne Streptomyces that cause unsightly scabs that render the affected pods unmarketable. Since all elite peanut cultivars are susceptible to pod wart, a new genetic source of resistance is required. Here, the identification and evaluation of a new genetic source of pod wart resistance is reported. The US mini‐core peanut collection was evaluated under field conditions, and the least susceptible genotypes were reevaluated in three locations. This led to the identification of two “landrace” genotypes that were significantly resistant to pod wart, with an average of 70% less infection than the control line. Two populations were prepared from crosses between these genotypes and an elite cultivar. Genetic analysis of segregating F2 populations showed that pod wart tolerance is polygenic with medium heritability estimations. No significant correlation was found between the incidence of pod wart and pod reticulation, indicating that the deep reticulation does not provide resistance. In addition, no significant correlation was found between the incidence of pod wart and pod yield, seed weight, or seed ratio. However, the incidence of disease was positively correlated with pod weight and pod length, indicating genetic linkage or a pleotropic effect on pod wart resistance. This study suggests that pod wart resistance can be selected in early generations of breeding pedigrees, but large populations are needed for optimal pyramiding of other pod‐ and yield‐related traits.
