Influence of group size and floral display on pollinator behaviour in Moricandia arvensis
Journal of Pollination EcologyOptimal foraging theory predicts that pollinators will visit dense floral patches over sparse ones. Understanding how the local abundance of floral resources influences pollinator behaviour is crucial for assessing the effect of floral traits on plant ...

Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum for Image Analysis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum (SHWB), a rotation‐ and translation‐invariant descriptor that captures higher‐order (phase) correlations in signals, is introduced. Combining wavelet scattering, bispectral analysis, and group theory, SHWB achieves interpretable, data‐efficient representations and demonstrates competitive performance across texture,

Floral And Faunal Resources In Maharashtra
IntroductionThe wide variety in physical features and climatic factors in the State of Maharashtra have resulted in diversity of ecological habitats like forests, mountain, semi-arid, wetlands, coastal and marine ecosystems, which harbour and sustain rich floral and faunal diversity.

Floral resources impact longevity and oviposition rate of a parasitoid in the field [PDF]
Journal of Animal Ecology, 2008 1. The use of floral resource subsidies to improve herbivore suppression by parasitoids requires certain trophic interactions and physiological changes to occur. While the longevity and fecundity of parasitoids are positively affected by nectar subsidies in laboratory studies, the impacts of floral subsidies on the fecundity and longevity of freely ...

Auto‐Downregulation of the Florigen FT Production Prevents Precocious Flowering in Plants
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study shows that the leaf vein‐expressed FD complexes with the florigen FT to bind DNA motifs in FT promoter, which antagonizes CONSTANS‐mediated FT activation to feedback down‐regulate FT expression. This prevents an excessive induction of FT expression by inductive photoperiods, thereby precluding precocious transition to flowering in ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Multiferroic order parameters – polarization, magnetization, and ferroelastic strain – are positioned as dynamic design variables for batteries. Their mechanistic roles, practical tuning through fabrication and external fields, and ferroic‐resolved characterization routes are unified into a closed‐loop framework, revealing how coupled ferroic responses

Supporting crop pollinators with floral resources: network‐based phenological matching [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2013 AbstractThe production of diverse and affordable agricultural crop species depends on pollination services provided by bees. Indeed, the proportion of pollinator‐dependent crops is increasing globally. Agriculture relies heavily on the domesticated honeybee; the services provided by this single species are under threat and becoming increasingly costly.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A versatile framework integrates addressable electrothermal actuation and strain‐constraint mechanisms to construct programmable shape‐morphing soft matter systems. By combining an analytical inverse design strategy for high‐fidelity 3D surface reconstruction with deep learning‐based closed‐loop control, this approach enables zero‐energy shape locking,
