Droplet, EarlyView.A sessile LM‐shaped microdroplet system, featuring by three logical internal layers that represent rapid formation, robust manipulation, and revolutionary applications respectively. Abstract Liquid marbles (LMs) have become a focal point in microfluidics for their efficient manipulation of small liquid volumes.

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 182, Issue 1, Page 37-47, January 2023., 2023 In the present study, we investigated the effects of mixed intercropping winter wheat‐winter pea on activity density and biocontrol potential of epigeal generalist predators. We show that mixed intercropping wheat and pea may represent a valid strategy to favour generalist predators and support conservation biological control compared to wheat ...

Social aggregation in pea aphids: Experimental measurement and stochastic modeling [PDF]
, 2013 An ongoing challenge in the mathematical modeling of biological aggregations is to strengthen the connection between models and biological data by quantifying the rules that individuals follow. We model aggregation of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum. Specifically, we conduct experiments to track the motion of aphids walking in a featureless circular

The evolutionary ecology of symbiont‐conferred resistance to parasitoids in aphids
Insect Science, 2014 Aphids may harbor a wide variety of facultative bacterial endosymbionts. These symbionts are transmitted maternally with high fidelity and they show horizontal transmission as well, albeit at rates too low to enable infectious spread. Such symbionts need

Detect caterpillar, grasshopper, aphid and simulation program for neutralizing them by laser [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The protection of crops from pests is relevant for any cultivated crop. But modern methods of pest control by pesticides carry many dangers for humans. Therefore, research into the development of safe and effective pest control methods is promising. This manuscript presents a new method of pest control.

Integrative biology of injury in animals
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 34-62, February 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Mechanical injury is a prevalent challenge in the lives of animals with myriad potential consequences for organisms, including reduced fitness and death. Research on animal injury has focused on many aspects, including the frequency and severity of wounding in wild populations, the short‐ and long‐term consequences of injury at different ...
