© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Cacao swollen shoot virus is a member of the family Caulimoviridae, genus Badnavirus and is naturally transmitted to Theobroma cacao (L.) by several mealybug species. CSSV populations in West African countries are highly variable...

Journal Article
Floyd, K. G., Hopewell, H., Burnell, D., Hancock, J. T., Allainguillaume, J., Ladomery, M., & Wilson, I. D. (2017). Residual ground-water levels of the neonicotinoid thiacloprid perturb chemosensing of Caenorhabditis elegans. Ecotoxicology, 26(7), 981-990. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10646-017-1826-z

© 2017, The Author(s). This study investigated the neurological effects of residual ground-water levels of thiaclopridon the non-target organism Caenorhabditis elegans. Nematodes treated with thiacloprid showed a dose-dependent and significantly incr...

GM risk assessment: Pollen carriage from Brassica napus to B. rapa varies widely between pollinators (2017)
Journal Article
Wilkinson, M. J., Ford, C. S., Ronca, S., Allainguillaume, J., & Warren, J. (2017). GM risk assessment: Pollen carriage from Brassica napus to B. rapa varies widely between pollinators. Basic and Applied Ecology, 19, 36-44. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.baae.2017.01.007

© 2017 Gesellschaft für Ökologie Characterizing insect pollen carriage between closely related plant species is especially challenging where source species possess morphologically identical pollen and share many pollinators in common. Here, we use an... Read More about GM risk assessment: Pollen carriage from Brassica napus to B. rapa varies widely between pollinators.
