Averaging of the electron effective mass in multicomponent transparent conducting oxides [PDF]
, 2007 We find that layered materials composed of various oxides of cations with $s^2$ electronic configuration, $XY_2$O$_4$, $X$=In or Sc, $Y$=Ga, Zn, Al, Cd and/or Mg, exhibit isotropic electron effective mass which can be obtained via averaging over those of

Evolutionary Reversals During Viral Adaptation to Alternating Hosts [PDF]
Genetics, 2000 AbstractExperimental adaptation of the bacteriophage ϕX174 to a Salmonella host depressed its ability to grow on the traditional Escherichia host, whereas adaptation to Escherichia did not appreciably affect growth on Salmonella. Continued host switching consistently exhibited this pattern.

New Lepidoptera-Parasitoid Associations in Weedy Corn Plantings: A Potential Alternate Host for \u3ci\u3eOstrinia Nubilalis\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) Parasitoids [PDF]
, 2017 Larvae of the common sooty wing, Pholisora catullus, and pupae of the yellow-collared scape moth, Cisseps Fulvicollis, were collected in corn plantings containing different manipulated, indigenous weed communities to determine if these Lepidoptera had ...

Goats as alternative hosts of cattle ticks
Onderstepoort J Vet Res, 2007 The objective of this study was to compare the presence on goats and cattle of adult ticks that usually infest cattle. To this end ticks collected from sets of five goats were compared with those collected from sets of five cattle at 72 communal dip-tanks in the eastern region of the Eastern Cape Province. Amblyomma hebraeum was present on goats at

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2019 Striga hermonthica, Striga asiatica and Striga gesneroides are obligate root parasites that cause severe yield losses in cereals and legumes in sub-Saharan Africa. Genetic control of Striga through resistance is widely considered to be the most practical

Population Diversity of Puccinia graminis is Sustained Through Sexual Cycle on Alternate Hosts
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2014 A high degree of virulence diversity has been maintained in the population of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt) in northwestern United States. Although Berberis vulgaris is present in the region and Pgt has been isolated from aecial infections on B.

Grass Hosts of Cereal Aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) Between Wheat-Cropping Cycles in South Dakota [PDF]
, 2018 Several grasses may serve as alternative hosts for cereal aphids during the interim between small-grain crops in South Dakota, but field studies to determine which grasses are important have not been undertaken.

A Procedure for Sampling Nymphs of Saratoga Spittlebug, \u3ci\u3eAphrophora Saratogensis\u3c/i\u3e (Homoptera: Cercopidae), Using Percentage of Sample-Units Infested [PDF]
, 2017 A method is proposed for rapidly estimating the nymphal population of the Saratoga spittlebug on alternate host plants in young red pine plantations. The method is based on an assumption that the number of nymphs per sample unit is distributed within an ...
