Performance of Fall Armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda Reared on Various Horticultural Crops
The developmental performance and reproductive success of the Australian population of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) were evaluated on five horticultural crops under laboratory conditions. Sweetcorn and bean supported rapid development, lower mortality, and higher fecundity (good performance); whereas capsicum, strawberry, and okra resulted in ...

Methane Emissions From Flame Curtain Pyrolysis (Kon‐Tiki)
Flame curtain pyrolysis enables decentralized biochar production, but its net climate benefit depends on the magnitude of methane emissions caused during production. Methane emissions were below 5 g CH4 kg−1 biochar for dry feedstocks but increased for moist feedstocks. Pyrolysis emitted less methane than open burning of wheat straw. ABSTRACT Pyrogenic

The short vase life (VL) of gladiolus cut flowers reduces their commercial importance. Trehalose (Tre), a phyto‐product that plays a unique role in plant functioning and environmental safety, can be used to improve VL. This work assessed a preharvest spray of Tre to mitigate postharvest (PHV) oxidative stress in “White Prosperity” gladiolus cut flowers
