ABSTRACT Background Sitophilus zeamais (Mostschulsky), the maize weevil, and Prostephanus truncatus (Horn), the larger grain borer, are two notorious insect pests of farm‐stored products in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). The goal of this study was to determine whether there were interactions between P. truncatus and S. zeamais during storage.

Pd(II)‐Catalyzed Strategies for the β‐Arylation of α‐Amino Acids: An Overview
The graphical abstract summarizes the review “Pd(II)‐Catalyzed Strategies for the β‐Arylation of α‐Amino Acids: An Overview”, highlighting representative Pd(II)‐catalyzed methods for the β‐arylation of α‐amino acids. Key mechanistic features, substrate diversity, and synthetic relevance of these transformations are showcased. Abstract Metal‐catalyzed C─

The development of chemoselective catalysts that operate across structurally diverse substrates remains a long‐standing challenge. Here, we demonstrate that a random heteropolymer bearing carboxylic acid and urea residues functions as a general epoxidation catalyst for olefinic quaternary ammonium salts.

Asymptotic properties of cross‐classified sampling designs
Abstract We investigate the family of cross‐classified sampling designs across an arbitrary number of dimensions. We introduce a variance decomposition that enables the derivation of general asymptotic properties for these designs and the development of straightforward and asymptotically unbiased variance estimators.
