Earliness, leaf surface wax and sugar content predict varietal differences for thrips damage in cabbage [PDF]

, 2010
When cabbage is cultivated for storage in the Netherlands, it is usually harvested around mid-October. This type of cabbage crop may be severely damaged by thrips (Thrips tabaci).

The pristine atomic structure of MoS2 monolayer protected from electron radiation damage by graphene

, 2013
Materials can, in principle, be imaged at the level of individual atoms with aberration corrected transmission electron microscopy. However, such resolution can be attained only with very high electron doses.

Prognostic Impact of Treatment Modalities, Including Targeted Compartmental Radio‐Immunotherapy, in a Cohort of Neuroblastoma Patients With CNS Metastases at Relapse

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neuroblastoma (NB) with central nervous system (CNS) metastases is rare at diagnosis, but occurs more often during relapse/progression. Patients with CNS metastases face a dismal prognosis, with no standardized curative treatment available.

Fatigue, Fracture, and Damage Tolerance of Ultrahigh-Strength Martensitic Tendon-Rods for Structural Engineering

Applied Sciences
The paper addresses the fatigue resistance, fracture behavior, and damage tolerance of a new type of ultrahigh-strength bar for prestressing concrete made of a low-alloy lath martensitic steel. The fracture tests show that the bar steel has a medium-high

Toward an Understanding of Beaver Management as Human and Beaver Densities Increase

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Estimates of beaver (Castor canadensis) density play an important role in wildlife managers’ decisions about beaver population management, because managers anticipate higher incidence of problem complaints when a beaver population increases.
