Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2300-2311, April 2025.Light‐emitting diode (LED)‐based treatments for enhancing crop production and pest management have primarily focused on continuous treatments. This study, using Tetranychus urticae and Phytoseiulus persimilis, demonstrates that the timing of LED supplementation is crucial for designing integrated pest management strategies that improve both plant ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Monitoring demographic rates to assess the status of a reintroduced swan population
Avian Conservation and EcologyInformation about demographic vital rates is useful for assessing the status of reintroduced species and potential barriers to growth. We used an integrated population model to estimate and assess demographic vital rates of a Trumpeter Swan ( Cygnus ...

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.This Perspective discusses the potential of stimuli‐responsive liquid crystal polymer bio‐interfaces in modulating cell behavior as next generation dynamic artificial scaffolds. Unlike current artificial biomaterials that have static properties, LCPs offer fast, reversible, and spatially programmable deformation that reflects the dynamic properties of ...

Quark anti-quark expectation value in finite volume [PDF]
, 2006 We have computed the quark anti-quark expectation value in finite volume at two loop in chiral perturbation theory and compare it with a formula obtained in analogy to the Luscher formula for pion mass in finite volume.

Modelling forest dynamics using integral projection models and repeat lidar
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Forests are facing increasing pressure from climate change and disturbance, yet linking individual tree trajectories to whole‐forest outcomes remains a major challenge. Our study integrates repeat airborne lidar with an Integral Projection Model to analyse demographic processes at the landscape scale.

The Effect of Farm Labor Organization on IPM Adoption: Empirical Evidence from Thailand [PDF]
This paper examines the empirical evidence of a theoretical economic model of the effect of labor organization on IPM adoption developed by Beckmann and Wes seler (2003). We use cross section data collected from the participatory farming system survey of
