Assessment of the Biological Control Potential of Common Carabid Beetle Species for Autumn- and Winter-Active Pests (Gastropoda, Lepidoptera, Diptera: Tipulidae) in Annual Ryegrass in Western Oregon

open access: yesInsects, 2020
While carabid beetles have been shown to feed on a variety of crop pests, little is known about their species assemblages in US annual ryegrass crops, where invertebrate pests, particularly slugs, lepidopteran larvae and craneflies, incur major financial

Is a combination of different natural substances suitable for slug (Arion spp.) control?

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2016
In a laboratory study we investigated the contact and barrier efficacy of different natural substances (wood ash, sawdust, hydrated lime, and diatomaceous earth) against slugs of the genus Arion, an important agricultural pest.

Two phase flow bifurcation due to turbulence: transition from slugs to bubbles

open access: yes, 2015
The bifurcation of slugs to bubbles within two-phase flow patterns in a minichannel is analyzed. The two-phase flow (water-air) occurring in a circular horizontal minichannel with a diameter of 1 mm is examined.

Determination of C0-60 in Cobalt Slugs and Slabs and Radionuclides in Curium Sampler Slugs L-Reactor Disassembly Basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Co-60 was historically produced in the SRS reactors. Cobalt slugs were irradiated in the early 1970s. Post-production, remaining cobalt slugs (including slab form) were consolidated for storage. There are approximately nine hundred cobalt slugs currently

Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita as a Control Agent for Slugs

open access: yes, 2015
While there has been intense study on entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) by numerous research groups throughout the world, there has been much less work on nematodes that can control slugs.

A second record of Selenochlamys (Stylommatophora: Trigonochlamydidae) from Crimea [PDF]

open access: yesMalacologica Bohemoslovaca, 2015
A live specimen of Selenochlamys was collected in a cave on the Ai-Petri massif of the Crimean Mountains in 2014. It is described and compared with the first Crimean specimen that was collected in 1989 on the Babugan massif.

Directed percolation describes lifetime and growth of turbulent puffs and slugs. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics, 2011
We show that directed percolation (DP) simulations in a pipe geometry in 3+1 dimensions capture the observed complex phenomenology of the transition to turbulence. At low Reynolds numbers (Re), turbulent puffs form and spontaneously relaminarize. At high

On the safe of pesticides in controlling the terrestrial mollusc pests

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1993
The preferred food items of the slugs Laevicaulis alte and the snails Achatina fulica were used to prepare 'poison baits'by injecting the pesticides 'Rogor'and 'Nuvan'to kill these mollusc pests.

Is ftsH the Key to Plastid Longevity in Sacoglossan Slugs?

open access: yesGenome Biology and Evolution, 2013
Plastids sequestered by sacoglossan sea slugs have long been a puzzle. Some sacoglossans feed on siphonaceous algae and can retain the plastids in the cytosol of their digestive gland cells.

Putting a Slug to Work

open access: yesComputing in Science & Engineering, 2009
Although novel architectures such as cell processors, graphics processors, and FPGAs are growing in popularity, conventional microprocessor designs pack a punch in a small footprint and are widely supported by commodity operating system and development tools.
