Experimental Infection of Plants with an Herbivore-Associated Bacterial Endosymbiont Influences Herbivore Host Selection Behavior

PLoS ONE, 2012
Although bacterial endosymbioses are common among phloeophagous herbivores, little is known regarding the effects of symbionts on herbivore host selection and population dynamics. We tested the hypothesis that plant selection and reproductive performance

Influence of Cultivar-Dependent Alstroemeria Floral Emissions on Frankliniella occidentalis Host Selection Behavior

Horticulturae
Frankliniella occidentalis, commonly known as the western flower thrips (WFT), is one of the world’s most significant cosmopolitan pests. This pest infests many ornamental species, including Alstroemeria, leading to substantial economic losses.

WAGE GAPS AND MIGRANTION COSTS: AN ANALYSIS FROM SIMULATION DATA [PDF]

Borjas (1987, 1991 and 1994) developed the self-selection theory, applying Roy’s model (1951) to migration studies. He establishes that the characteristics of migrants in terms of skills and abilities are driven by wage distribution differences between ...

Are most low-luminosity active galactic nuclei really obscured? [PDF]

, 2009
At low Eddington ratios (ṁ), two effects make it more difficult to detect certain active galactic nuclei (AGN) given a particular set of selection methods.

Role of nitrogen content of pea (Pisum sativum L.) on pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris) establishment

Caspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2008
The leaf nitrogen content is generally accepted as an indicator of food quality and as a factor affecting host selection by phytophagous insects. The alate pea aphids (Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris, Aphididae) were given a choice among non-nodulated pea ...

Field Application of Tea Volatiles Mediating the Selectivity of Aleurocanthus spiniferus on Four Tea Cultivars

Plants
Orange spiny whitefly (Aleurocanthus spiniferus Quaintance) is a major pest with economic significance to tea plants, as both nymphs and adults suck plant sap and contribute to the development of tea sooty mold.

Spectroscopic follow-up of variability-selected active galactic nuclei in the Chandra Deep Field South

, 2009
Luminous AGNs are usually selected by their non-stellar colours or their X-ray emission. Colour selection cannot be used to select low-luminosity AGNs, since their emission is dominated by the host galaxy.
