Comparative biology of different plant pathogens to estimate effects of climate change on crop diseases in Europe (2012, background): “However, introductions of new pathogens adapted to new conditions (Anderson et al. 2004; Flood 2010), changes in farm practices including new crops grown (Barnes et al. 2010), and complexities of climate change projections and the biotic responses to them (Semenov and Stratonovitch 2010) makes…”

Sustainable intensification in agricultural systems. (2014, background): “Pathogens, weeds and invertebrates result in up to 30 % losses in particular locations for particular crops (Oerke and Dehne, 2004; Flood, 2010).”
Increasing numbers and intercontinental spread of invasive insects on eucalypts (2016, unknown): “Biological invasions pose one of the greatest threats to global biodiversity as well as to the sustainable production of food and fibre for the needs of a growing world population (Pimentel et al. 2001; Wingfield et al. 2008; Flood 2010; Wingfield et al. 2011; Bebber et al. 2014a).”
Clay nanosheets for topical delivery of RNAi for sustained protection against plant viruses (2017, background): “1), we demonstrate that (1) LDH nanosheets can load large dsRNA to form dsRNA–LDH complexes referred to as BioClay; (2) the dsRNA in BioClay is protected from nuclease activity, and can be detected on the leaf surface even 30 days after topical spray; (3) BioClay facilitates sustained release of dsR”
Climate Change and Global Food Systems: Potential Impacts on Food Security and Undernutrition. (2017, background): “Insects, pathogens, fungi, and weeds are estimated to be responsible for reducing the production of major crops by roughly 25–40% (54), although systematic global data are limited.”
Climate change, plant diseases and food security: an overview (2011, background): “Since Sr31 has previously been effective there is great reliance on this gene across much of the world’s wheat area, and its breakdown will therefore have very serious consequences in food security terms in vulnerable parts of the world where alternative crop protection methods and resistant cultiva”
The Top 10 fungal pathogens in molecular plant pathology. (2012, background): “As a result of its adaptive capacity, fitness and virulence attributes (90% of the world’s wheat is susceptible), the Ug99 race group has been recognized as a major threat to food security (Flood, 2010; McIntosh and Pretorius, 2011; Singh et al., 2011; Vurro et al., 2010).”
