Seed coat fragments, a major source of cotton yarn imperfections [PDF]
A method to differentiate cultivars depending on their SCFcontents on yarn was developped in CIRAD CA using a GGP Uster Eveness Tester. Results indicate a high SCF heritability,but fabrication of yam is too costly to be used for breeding programs.

Current advances in genomics and breeding of leaf chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) [PDF]
This review gives an overview of agricultural topics on a non-model species, in other words, leaf chicory. Often classified as a minor crop, \u201cRadicchio\u201d, the Italian name of leaf chicory, is assuming a very important role at both a local and ...

This study presents an automated system integrating a capillary force gripper and machine learning‐based object detection for sorting and placing submillimeter objects. The system achieved stable and simultaneous manipulation of four object types, with an average task time of 86.0 seconds and a positioning error of 157 ± 84 µm, highlighting its ...

ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

Modulation of Negative Work Output from a Steering Muscle of the Blowfly Calliphora Vicina [PDF]
Of the 17 muscles responsible for flight control in flies, only the first basalar muscle (b1) is known to fire an action potential each and every wing beat at a precise phase of the wing-beat period.

The inheritance of resistance to bacterial leaf spot of lettuce caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. vitians in three lettuce cultivars. [PDF]
Lettuce yields can be reduced by the disease bacterial leaf spot (BLS) caused by the pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. vitians (Xcv) and host resistance is the most feasible method to reduce disease losses. The cultivars La Brillante, Pavane and Little

ABSTRACT The transition toward more sustainable and innovative agricultural systems increasingly relies on the integration of digital and enabling technologies (KETs). Although the technical and productive aspects of these innovations have been widely investigated, consumer acceptance remains less understood, despite its key role in fostering their ...
