Quantifying the impact of Psylliodes chrysocephala injury on the productivity of oilseed rape
Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 5, Page 2383-2392, May 2024.The impact of Psylliodes chrysocephala adult and larval damage on oilseed rape yield was quantified to help develop improved thresholds for Integrated Pest Management. Up to 90% leaf area loss (simulated using a hole punch) during early growth did not affect yield.

MUBs inequivalence and affine planes
, 2011 There are fairly large families of unitarily inequivalent complete sets of N+1 mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) in C^N for various prime powers N. The number of such sets is not bounded above by any polynomial as a function of N.

Experimental arena settings might lead to misinterpretation of movement properties
Insect Science, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 271-284, February 2024.Many studies examine movement in the laboratory and use different laboratory conditions, specifically arenas differing in structure, size, and shape. We examined the effect of the arena structure on movement properties using the red flour beetle as a model. The arena structure greatly affected movement properties, such as movement distance, turn angles,

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 1, Page 5-12, February 2024.Abstract Hoverfly larvae are voracious predators of aphids but have limited dispersal capacity, so their survival depends critically on female selection of oviposition sites. For aphid control purposes, the ability of females to find small aphid colonies is especially valuable.

Crop Science, Volume 64, Issue 1, Page 333-353, January/February 2024.Abstract Deeper rooted crops are an avenue to increase plant water and nitrogen uptake under limiting conditions and increase long‐term soil carbon storage. Measuring rooting depth, however, is challenging due to the destructive, laborious, or imprecise methods that are currently available.

Alternative locust control with a dilutable linseed oil emulsion
Food and Energy Security, Volume 13, Issue 1, January/February 2024.In this study, we improved a pesticidal formulation based on linseed oil for the control of gregarious locusts. Lab experiments and a semifield experiment conducted with Schistocerca gregaria revealed a high toxicity of this oil emulsion. This emulsion is harmless for humans and biodegradable.

New examples of fractional dimensional semifield planes
Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics, 2013 Abstract This is a short round up of the fractional dimension of finite semifields and finite semifield planes. We show that the classical Knuth binary semifields can never be fractional dimensional and a special class of the generalized Knuth binary semifields is fractional dimensional, even though these two classes of semifields are isotopic ...
