Primeras citas de dos especies de mosquitos antropófilos en Segovia. Implicación en la transmisión de patógenos by Josué Martínez-de la Puente, Mikel A. González

“…Abstract: The aim of this field note is to report the presence of new mosquito species (Diptera: Culicidae) in the province of Segovia and discuss their potential role in pathogen transmission. In August 2024, two female mosquitoes were captured and identified as Aedes geniculatus (Olivier, 1791) and Anopheles petragnani (Del Vecchio, 1939) through a combination of traditional morphological identification and molecular analysis of their COI gene sequences. …”

A PRELIMINARY RESULTS ON THE CONTROL OF CERCOSPORA LEAF SPOT ATTACK IN SOME SUGAR BEET HYBRIDS WITH DIFFERENT DOSES OF FUNGICIDES by Manuela Hermeziu, Lorena Adam, Diana Petre, Carmen Chelmea

“…To the National Institute of Research and Development for Potato and Sugar Beet Brasov, in 2023, two polyfactorial experiments were carried out on the sugar beet crop which aimed to determine the effect of fungicides, full dose, respectively half dose, on beet plants affected by the pathogen Cercospora beticola. The experiments included five variants each, an untreated (control) variant, two variants with the recommended dose of fungicide (250 g/l difenoconazole active substance, respectively 14.1 g/l Bacillus subtilis strain QST 713) and two variants with 50% of the recommended fungicides dose. …”
