Orbis Litterarum, EarlyView.Abstract The present essay turns the received view of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty‐Four on its head, arguing that Orwell's dystopian classic mobilizes the modernist techniques of T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land to lampoon the ideological fatalism of Eliot and other cultural conservatives.

Planococcus citri in coffee trees by supervised classification using multispectral images
Ciência Rural: One of the obstacles to the cultivation of coffee trees is the occurrence of the mealybug Planococcus citri. These insects occur in clusters, and can infest branches, leaves, flower buds, and fruits, reaching all the rosettes of the plant and leading ...

Population and Development Review, EarlyView.Abstract It is well established that women's labor force participation drops markedly with marriage and childbearing, however, little is known about women's labor market transitions, especially in developing countries. This article uses the Indonesian Family Life Survey to track the employment histories of over 5000 women for more than 20 years ...

Vegetation growth conditions strongly indicate coffee flowering anomalies
Abstract Quantifying the timing of vegetation growth, particularly coffee plant flowering, is vital for estimating yield in advance. While satellite-based vegetation indices are effective in mapping crop growth and have a strong correlation with coffee yield, the potential contribution of plant conditions alongside climate factors in predicting

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.

Additive Variance and Open‐Pollinated Progenies Under Mixed Mating
Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Open‐pollinated progeny tests are still widely interpreted as if all the individuals within a maternal family were true half‐sibs. However, in species with mixed mating systems, this assumption is often biologically unrealistic and may bias the estimation of the additive variance, narrow‐sense heritability and expected selection gains.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Sand made from recycled glass cullet could supplement limited dredged river sand (dredge) in coastal wetland restorations; however, its suitability for wetland plants is unknown. In two experiments, we compared the biomass of several wetland plants in recycled glass sand to growth in dredge.
