Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

REPRODUCING OPERATIONAL LANDSCAPES: The Rock Mining for Indonesia's New Capital City

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Indonesia's new capital city is designed to become a green and sustainable city. In this article, we examine the (un)sustainability of the process through which the city is coming into being. Using the sociospatial theory of planetary urbanization, we trace the dialectical relationship between the new city and sites beyond it to show how ...

Morphometric variation and fluctuating asymmetry in populations of Closterocerus coffeellae (Ihering) (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) in different management and landscape of coffee agroecosystems

Biological Control
Closterocerus coffeellae (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) is a parasitoid of the coffee leaf miner occurring in coffee farms with high selection pressure caused by pesticides and different landscape patterns on the surrounding crops.

Study of simple sequence repeat markers from coffee expressed sequences associated to leaf miner resistance Estudo de marcadores microssatélites em seqüências expressas de café associadas à resistência ao bicho-mineiro

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2007
The objective of this work was to identify expressed simple sequence repeats (SSR) markers associated to leaf miner resistance in coffee progenies. Identification of SSR markers was accomplished by directed searches on the Brazilian Coffee Expressed ...

The Dynamic Block Universe: Change Independent of Passage

Ratio, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The world appears to be in a constant state of flux, with objects changing and events unfolding over time. I refer to this characterisation as the Manifest Dynamic World. I have argued elsewhere that the Manifest Dynamic World involves two fundamentally distinct kinds of dynamism that cannot be reduced to one another: the dynamic character of ...

Artifex Ars Cartographica: Collaboration Between Portuguese Painters and Cartographers in the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, there was no statutory difference between cartography, drawing and painting. These activities were performed then by craftsmen who were part of a vast group under the umbrella of ‘mechanical arts’ and fell under the ‘artifex’ category. Artifex were experts in any particular art, whether a craftsman,

Effect of coffee alkaloids and phenolics on egg-laying by the coffee leaf minerLeucoptera coffeella

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 2008
AbstractThe recognized importance of coffee alkaloids and phenolics mediating insect-plant interactions led to the present investigation aiming to test the hypothesis that the phenolics chlorogenic and caffeic acids and the alkaloid caffeine and some of its derivatives present in coffee leaves affect egg-laying by the coffee leaf minerLeucoptera ...
