The flight dynamics of the olive fruit fly Batrocera (Cacus) oleae Rossi in Dubrovacko-neretvanska county [PDF]
Maslinova muha Bactrocera (Dacus) oleae Rossi najopasniji je gospodarski štetnik masline. Njena rasprostranjenost i brojnost u maslinicima izravno utječu na kvalitetu i trženje maslinovog ulja.

A contribution to the knowledge of Bactrocera oleae (GMEL) in Tras-os-Montes region (northeastern Portugal): phenology, losses and control [PDF]
Severe damage is caused by the olive fly (Bactrocera oleae (Gmel)) in the Trás-osMontes region. In order to develop a control strategy, two olive groves for oil production ("Cobrançosa" and "Verdeal") and one for table olive ("Negrinha de Freixo") were

SYN‐A, a naturally derived synergist, inhibited key metabolic pathways associated with pyrethroid insecticide resistance in cabbage stem flea beetle (CSFB) and its parasitoid Microctonus brassicae. SYN‐A restored pyrethroid efficacy against resistant CSFB allowing up to 80% reduction in application rates.

Toward the valorization of olive (Olea europaea var. europaea L.) biodiversity: horticultural performance of seven Sicilian cultivars in a hedgerow planting system [PDF]
An intense survey of the Sicilian's olive growing areas for autochthonous germplasm, mainly represented by centennials olive trees (Olea europaea var. europaea L.) apparently older then III centuries, started at the beginning of the 1980s and resulted in

Modelling forest dynamics using integral projection models and repeat lidar
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.
