Effect of olive fruit fly infestation on the quality of olive oil from cultivars cobrançosa, madural and verdeal transmontana [PDF]
Olives (Olea europaea L.) from cultivars Cobrançosa, Madural and Verdeal Transmontana were collected separately and divided into two different groups according to the presence or absence of infestation by the olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae Gmel.)

Synthesis of Haptens and Development of an Immunoassay for the Olive Fruit Fly Pheromone
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the olive fruit fly pheromone, Bactrocera oleae Gmelin, was developed. The assay uses polyclonal antibodies, raised in rabbits, against (+/-)-beta-[3-(1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane)]propionic acid, 2 (hapten I), conjugated to the KLH (keyhole limpet hemocyanin) by the carbodiimide method. A second hapten, (

Olive fruits infested with olive fly larvae respond with an ethylene burst and the emission of specific volatiles [PDF]
AbstractOlive fly (Bactrocera oleae R.) is the most harmful insect pest of olive (Olea europaea L.) which strongly affects fruits and oil production. Despite the expanding economic importance of olive cultivation, up to now, only limited information on plant responses to B. oleae is available.

In this paper, we use Goffman's notion of “face work” to examine how pipeline engineers perform and present their working selves as competent experts. Our analysis identifies various faces and face work tactics, including a focus on professional judgment, actively selling one's expertise relative to others, protective self‐deprecatory strategies, and ...

Towards machine‐learning‐based on‐the‐fly analysis of neutron reflectometry
An automated machine‐learning‐based processing and analysis workflow for neutron reflectometry data is presented. The approach has been successfully used for on‐the‐fly analysis during an experiment at the Institut Laue–Langevin (Grenoble, France) and can be adapted to work at other neutron facilities seeking to enable real‐time feedback‐driven ...

A review and illustrated description of Musca Crassirostris, one of the most neglected livestock hematophageous flies [PDF]
Tabanids, stomoxyine flies, hippoboscids and tsetse flies are the most well‐known brachyceran biting flies of livestock. Only a few other higher Diptera have developed the unique mouthparts required for blood feeding.

Soglie di dannosità e strategie di controllo di Bactrocera oleae (Rossi) nell'olivicoltura biologica da tavola [PDF]
Olive fly control is the main limit to the diffusion of organic table olives production, because of the lack of effective larvicides. Few studies on damages in table olives due to B. oleae and on applied damage thresholds are recorded.
