Multiobjective Simulation–Optimization of Crop Allocation and Water Resources in Canal Command Areas Using Genetic Algorithms

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops an integrated simulation–optimization framework for sustainable crop allocation and water resource management in the Bargarh Canal Command (BCC), eastern India. Efficient irrigation allocation remains a critical challenge due to competing demands, groundwater–surface water interactions and environmental constraints ...

Insect communities of late Pleistocene steppe–tundra and Holocene boreal forest ecosystems in central Yukon Territory, Canada

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Subfossil insect communities from the Quartz Creek site provide a detailed record of both Late Pleistocene steppe–tundra and Holocene boreal forest ecosystems in central Yukon Territory, Canada. Fifteen Pleistocene assemblages (marine isotope stages [MIS] 4 to 2) are dominated by steppe–tundra and dry‐tundra taxa, particularly the weevils ...

Gene interactions constrain the course of evolution of phosphine resistance in the lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica [PDF]

Heredity, 2008
Phosphine, a widely used fumigant for the protection of stored grain from insect pests, kills organisms indirectly by inducing oxidative stress. High levels of heritable resistance to phosphine in the insect pest of stored grain, Rhyzopertha dominica have been detected in Asia, Australia and South America.

What's Inside the Green Bag? An Analysis of the Eco‐Design Options and a Visual Tool for the Development of Sustainable Fashion Accessories

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Integrating eco‐design practices in product development from the start is essential for fashion accessories like bags and backpacks, which involve complex manufacturing, diverse materials, and strong socio‐cultural meanings. Building on this premise and drawing from the Lifecycle Design Strategy Wheel, this study aims to characterize the eco ...

Development of the lesser grain borer (Rhyzopertha dominica F.) on malt barley and fodder barley grain [PDF]

Progress in Plant Protection, 2013
Summary A study was carried out to determine the effect of barley grain used for different purposes (malt or fodder production) on the development of the lesser grain borer (Rhyzopertha dominica F.). The development of the pest insect was investigated on the grain of barley cultivars belonged to two different utilization types. The grain from cultivars

Lesser Grain Borers,Rhyzopertha dominica, Select Rough Rice Kernels with Cracked Hulls for Reproduction [PDF]

Journal of Insect Science, 2012
Tests were conducted to determine whether the lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrychidae), selects rough rice (Oryza sativa L. (Poales: Poaceae)) kernels with cracked hulls for reproduction when these kernels are mixed with intact kernels.
