International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Plant‐based biopesticides provide a sustainable alternative to synthetic insecticides for managing postharvest losses caused by maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais) and larger grain borer (Prostephanus truncatus). This study evaluated the phytochemical composition and insecticidal activity of methanolic extracts of Lantana camara, Citrus sinensis, Moringa

Amblyseius largoensis in controlling red palm mite under semi-field conditions [PDF]
Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2016 : The objective of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of two Amblyseius largoensis (Acari: Phytoseiidae) populations in controlling Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae). The treatments were: release of A. largoensis from the island of La Réunion;

Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Although synthetic pesticides have long been used to protect crops, their widespread use has led to significant health and environmental problems, including ecological contamination, resistant pest populations, and hazardous residues in food. These restrictions have sparked interest in natural pesticides (NPs), particularly the secondary metabolites of

Demographic analysis of fenpyroximate and thiacloprid exposed predatory mite Amblyseius swirskii (Acari: Phytoseiidae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Knowledge of the impact of pesticides on predators is crucial for developing integrated pest management (IPM) programs. Amblyseius swirskii (Acari: Phytoseiidae) is a predatory mite used to control several species of pest including Tetranychus urticae ...

Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem and Open Mapping Theorem in Hemi‐Normed Spaces
Journal of Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.This paper aims for the further development of hemi‐normed spaces, which is a proper extension of normed spaces. In this regard, we establish some fundamental results of functional analysis, including Brouwer’s theorem and Schauder’s fixed point theorem for hemi‐normed spaces.

Searching for semifield flocks
Discrete Mathematics, 2002 In the projective space \(PG(3,q)\) let \(K\) be a quadratic cone with vertex \(v\) ; a flock \(\mathcal {F}\) of \(K\) is a set of \(q\) disjoint conics partitioning \ \(K \setminus \{ v \}\). The interest in flocks is due to their links with many geometric objects. For instance a spread (i.e.
