SPRAY DEPOSITION FROM AN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE ON A COFFEE CROP [PDF]
Engenharia AgrícolaThe use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to apply pesticides has grown significantly, but technical data to support improvements in application efficiency are lacking, especially for perennial crops.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Description of the application method in technical and scientific work on insecticides
Acta Scientiarum. Agronomy, 2016 Chemical control is a viable and practically indispensable tool in the control and management of cultivated plant pests, but insufficient detail in documenting the methods used for applying phytosanitary products has been reported in the majority of ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Activity-induced droplet propulsion and multifractality
Physical Review Research, 2023 We elucidate the crucial role that confinement plays in collective and emergent behaviors in active- or living-matter systems by developing a minimal hydrodynamic model, without an orientational order parameter, for assemblies of contractile swimmers ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Characteristics of Aerosol and Cloud over the Central Plain of North China in Summer
应用气象学报, 2021 The vertical distribution of aerosols and clouds is a key issue in the indirect climate effects of aerosols. Based on the aerosol and cloud droplet number concentration data observed by 6 aircrafts over the central plain of North China from July to ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
