The destructive #bacterium Xylella fastidiosa has caused severe #disease outbreaks of #olive trees in Italy. Xylem morphology like vessel diameter could help to identify olive cultivars #resistant to the disease - article in the journal Plant Pathology (2023, vol. 72, issue 3, pp. 521-535) by Nancy C. Walker and others - https://doi.org/10.1111/ppa.13674

Bacteria really eat plastic (bionity)
Laboratory experiment shows that the #bacterium Rhodococcus ruber eats and actually digests #plastic. #Bacteria are able to break down about one percent of the fed plastic per year into #CO2 and other harmless substances.
Not a solution to the problem in our ocean - but another part of the answer to the question of where all the "missing plastic" in the oceans has gone.
