Effective control of southern blight and root rot of Aconitum carmichaelii Debeaux by endophytic Bacillus velezensis YN-2-6S by Qian Wang, Yujie Qiu, Siyu Wang, Yumei Gou, Hongji Hou, Tianwei Su, Lan Zou, Jing Huang

“…Increase of peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) enzyme activity of A. carmichaelii leaves was detected upon inoculation of YN-2-6S, which indicated that YN-2-6S may induce systemic resistance on A. carmichaelii. Taken together, this study proved that YN-2-6S was a promising biocontrol agent against southern blight and root rot of A. carmichaelii and the underline mechanism may involve the production of antifungal lipopeptides, polyketides, volatile compounds, hydrolysis and induction of host systemic resistance.…”

Influence of volatiles (H$_{2}$O and CO$_{2}$) on shoshonite phase equilibria by Vetere, Francesco, Namur, Olivier, Holtz, Francois, Almeev, Renat, Donato, Paola, Frondini, Francesco, Cassetta, Michele, Pisello, Alessandro, Perugini, Diego

“…This result has important consequences upon the physical properties of the magma because it influences its viscosity and, as a consequence, velocity during its travel to the Earth surface.Assuming that the widths of Vulcanello conduits vary from 0.5 to 1.5 m, estimates of the ascent velocity vary in the range 1.5 ${\times }$ 10$^{-4}$–3.5 ${\times }$ 10$^{-2}$ m${\cdot }$s$^{-1}$ for CO$_{2}$ free systems and from 5.7 ${\times }$ 10$^{-4}$–1.3 ${\times }$ 10$^{-1}$ m${\cdot }$s$^{-1}$ for CO$_{2}$ bearing systems.Since shoshonitic magmas are common not only in the Italian volcanic provinces (Aeolian Arc, Campi Flegrei, Ischia Island, Pontine Islands, Monti Cimini, Monte Amiata, Capraia Island, Radicofani, Roccamonfina) but also in different volcanoes worldwide (Yellowstone, Mariana Arc, Kurile Arc, Tonga Arc, Andean Arc, Kamchatka Arc), we suggest that the new data will be useful to better understand shoshonitic magma behaviour under relevant geological scenarios. …”
