Genetic diversity of Bemisia tabaci species colonizing cassava in Central African Republic characterized by analysis of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I by Tocko-Marabena, B.K., Silla, S., Simiand, C., Zinga, I., Legg, James P., Reynaud, B., Delatte, H.

“…Phylogenetic analysis of the whitefly mtCOI sequences indicated that SSA1 (-SG1, -SG2), SSA3, MED, MEAM1 and Indian Ocean (IO) putative species occur in CAR. One specific haplotype of SSA1-SG1 (SSA1-SG1-P18F5) predominated on most cassava plants and at the majority of sites. …”

Genetic diversity of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) populations and presence of the B biotype and a nonB biotype that can induce silverleaf symptoms in quash,... by Sseruwagi, P., Legg, James P., Maruthi, M., Colvin, J., Rey, M., Brown, J.

“…Ug7 was closely related (at 98–99% nt identity) to biotype Ms from the Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean. Ug4 colonised Cucurbita pepo, Cucurbita sativus, Leonotis nepetifolia and Pavonia urens, while Ug7 colonised Commelina benghalensis, Gossypium hirsutum and Phaseolus vulgaris. …”

The El Nino event of 2015-2016: climate anomalies and their impact on groundwater resources in East and Southern Africa by Kolusu, S.R., Shamsudduha, Mohammad, Todd, Martin C., Taylor, R.G., Seddon, D., Kashaigili, Japhet J., Ebrahim, Girma Yimer, Cuthbert, Mark O., Sorensen, J.P.R., Villholth, Karen G., MacDonald, Alan M., Macleod, D.A.

“…Conversely, over EASE during the 2015–2016 El Niño event, anomalously wet conditions were observed with an estimated return period of ~10 years, likely moderated by the absence of a strongly positive Indian Ocean zonal mode phase. The strong but not extreme rainy season increased groundwater storage, as shown by satellite GRACE data and rising groundwater levels observed at a site in central Tanzania. …”

Spatiotemporal analysis of rainfall and temperature variability and trends for a mixed crop-livestock production system: its implications for developing adaptation strategies by Alemayehu, Sintayehu, Olago, Daniel, Alfred, Opere, Zeleke, Tadesse Terefe, Dejene, Sintayehu Workeneh

“…Correlation with global SST and an examination of atmospheric pressure systems elucidated the mechanisms driving these variations, with significant correlation with the southern and central part of Indian Ocean. This study also found that fluctuations in climate variables significantly impact crop production, particularly wheat and livestock productivity in the region, underscoring the need for adaptive strategies to mitigate adverse effects on agriculture and food security. …”

Spridning och faktorer som påverkar förekomsten av Anisakis spp. hos fisk by Runesson, Rebecca

Tracking states and transitions in semiarid rangelands: A spatiotemporal archetypal analysis of productivity dynamics using wavelets by Bruzzone, Octavio Augusto, Hurtado, Santiago Ignacio, Perri, Daiana Vanesa, Maddio, Rafael Adrián, Sello, Mario Eugenio, Easdale, Marcos Horacio

“…Finally, all three NDVI series representative of archetypes showed a relative peak at approximately four years, which could be linked to the Indian Ocean Dipole variability. These results highlight an abrupt shift in the system's behaviour, primarily related to changes in variability distribution rather than mean values. …”

Distribution and diversity of emergent Banana bunchy top virus infecting banana and plantain in Cameroon, Central Africa by Ngatat, S., Hanna, R., Doumtsop Fotio, A.R.P., Lienou, J.A., Nanga, S.N., Fotso Kaute, A., Osundahunsi, B., Fiaboe, K., Ndemba, B., Dossa, G.S., Alabi, T., Kumar, P.L.

“…Phylogenetic analysis using complete nucleotide sequences of the BBTV-R and BBTV-S gene aligned Cameroon isolates with the sub-Saharan Africa subgroup of the Pacific-Indian Oceans (PIO) group of BBTV isolates, suggesting a likely virus invasion from neighbouring central African countries where BBTV presence had been reported in the 1980s. …”
