Open Plant Phenotype Database of Common Weeds in Denmark

Remote Sensing, 2020
For decades, significant effort has been put into the development of plant detection and classification algorithms. However, it has been difficult to compare the performance of the different algorithms, due to the lack of a common testbed, such as a ...

On the maximum field of linearity of linear sets

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 56, Issue 11, Page 3300-3315, November 2024.
Abstract Let V$V$ denote an r$r$‐dimensional Fqn$\mathbb {F}_{q^n}$‐vector space. For an m$m$‐dimensional Fq$\mathbb {F}_q$‐subspace U$U$ of V$V$, assume that dimq⟨v⟩Fqn∩U⩾2$\dim _q \left(\langle {\bf v}\rangle _{\mathbb {F}_{q^n}} \cap U\right) \geqslant 2$ for each nonzero vector v∈U${\bf v}\in U$. If n⩽q$n\leqslant q$, then we prove the existence of

Future management of arable perennials - an introduction to the project AC/DC-weeds

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2020
Creeping perennial weeds have strong negative impacts on arable production. The common control practices are intensive inversion tillage and chemical herbicides. However, these traditional methods negatively affect non-target species and the environment.

Compatibility of the fungus Beauveria bassiana and Trichoplusia ni SNPV against the cabbage looper Trichoplusia ni: crop plant matters

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 6, Page 2851-2859, June 2024.
The combined application of a baculovirus (Trichoplusia ni Hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), T. ni single nucleopolyhedrovirus, TniSNPV) and Beauveria bassiana against the cabbage looper Trichoplusia ni was not more effective compared to singly applied TniSPNV.

Blocking sets and semifields

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 2006
In the paper under review the author shows a relationship between semifield spreads of \({\text PG}(2 t - 1, q)\) and \(\text{GF}(s)\)-linear sets of rank \(n t\) with \(q = s^n\). For \(t = 2\), the indicator set of a semifield spread of \({\text PG}(3, q)\) defines a Rédei linear blocking set of \({\text PG}(2, q^2)\), disjoint from a Baer subline of

Intermediate‐tier options in the environmental risk assessment of plant protection products for soil invertebrates—Synthesis of a workshop

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 780-793, May 2024.
The introduction of intermediate tiers in the environmental risk assessment of plant protection products for soil organisms can help to reduce uncertainties in the risk assessment and serve as a bridge between the Tier 1 and higher‐tier risk assessment.
