Different soybean plant arrangements affect ground beetle assemblages
Journal of Plant Protection Research, 2019 It was expected that there would be a relationship between plant density and arrangement within soybean plantations and ground beetles due to changes of abiotic habitat conditions.

Ground beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) agrocenoses of spring and winter wheat
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2005 On two monitoring areas of the Central Institute for Supervising and Testing in Agriculture (ÚKZÚZ) loaded with risk elements we carried out investigations of beetles of the family Carabidae (Coleoptera) in agricultural stands of winter and spring wheat.

Does the diurnal activity pattern of carabid beetles depend on season, ground temperature and habitat? [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2012 The influence of season, ground temperature and habitat on diurnal epigeic activity of ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in floodplain forest and neighboring clear-cut area was studied in late spring and early autumn by pitfall trapping.

Consequences of Urban Living: Urbanization and Ground Beetles [PDF]
Current Landscape Ecology Reports, 2020 Abstract Purpose of Review Urbanization is increasing worldwide, transforming environmental and habitat parameters, and causing adverse effects on organisms living in urban habitats. Urban studies on ground beetles are exponentially increasing and cover all levels of biological organization.

Nature's Chemical Weapons: Beetle Defenses
CHIMIA, 2019 The defense chemicals secreted by beetles are very diverse. They are exemplified by those of members of the families Carabidae (ground beetles) and Coccinellidae (ladybirds).

4D Printing of Self‐Immolative Polymers
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The integration of self‐immolative polymers (SIPs) into light‐based 3D printed structures is presented as a new “living” 4D printing strategy. By exploiting their metastability and stimuli‐responsiveness, SIP‐containing printed objects can undergo rapid and triggered degrowth under ambient conditions and subsequent regrowth through polymer ...

Do covers influence the capture efficiency of pitfall traps?
European Journal of Entomology, 2009 Pitfall traps are widely used in terrestrial ecology to capture ground-dwelling arthropods. In order to determine the effect of covers placed over pitfall traps on their efficiency at capturing of spiders, carabid beetles and ants, four types of pitfall ...

Spatially Tailorable Liquid Crystalline Elastomer Alignment During Digital Light Process 3D Printing
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Here, we report the fabrication of 3D printable liquid crystalline elastomer (LCE) structures with spatially tailorable alignment domains within the same layer. This work addresses the long‐standing challenge of preparing complex 3D LCE architectures with patterned functional domains to achieve nonlinear deformations. Fabrication of multi‐domains in 3D
