The importance of root-produced volatiles as foraging cues for entomopathogenic nematodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are tiny parasitic worms that parasitize insects, in which they reproduce. Their foraging behavior has been subject to numerous studies, most of which have proposed that, at short distances, EPNs use ...

Epidemic Percolation Networks, Epidemic Outcomes, and Interventions

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, 2011
Epidemic percolation networks (EPNs) are directed random networks that can be used to analyze stochastic “Susceptible-Infectious-Removed” (SIR) and “Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Removed” (SEIR) epidemic models, unifying and generalizing previous uses ...

The 2024 European Union report on pesticide residues in food

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Under European Union legislation (Article 32, Regulation (EC) No 396/2005), the European Food Safety Authority publishes an annual report assessing pesticide residue levels in food. In 2024, 9842 samples were analysed as part of the EU‐coordinated multiannual control programme subset, of which 1.2% were found to be non‐compliant.

Determining the Factors Affecting the Natural Occurrence of Entomopathogenic Nematodes in Turfgrass: A Principal Components Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We conducted a study to determine the relationship between turfgrass management intensity and natural occurrence of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) on golf courses in Ohio. 159 soil samples were collected from putting greens, fairways and rough areas –

Global Reduction of H3K4me3 Improves Chemotherapeutic Efficacy for Pediatric Ependymomas

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2019
BACKGROUND: Ependymomas (EPNs) are the third most common brain tumor in children. These tumors are resistant to available chemotherapeutic treatments, therefore new effective targeted therapeutics must be identified.
