Investigation into the dyeing of pre‐mordanted & cationised woven cotton fabric with cochineal

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dyeing cotton with natural dyes typically requires the pre‐application of a mordant, which enables better dye exhaustion from solution and ‘fixes’ the colorant in the fibre. The most common application system for cellulosic fibres is a combination of plant‐derived tannins and aluminium salts, such as aluminium sulphate.

Alternative Food for Litter‐Inhabiting Predators Decreases Thrips Densities and Above‐Ground Plant Damage

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We studied predatory soil mites that control the thrips Frankliniella occidentalis. Thrips densities were significantly reduced by the predator Cosmolaelaps sabelisi. It presumably feeds on prepupae and pupae in the soil and on larvae aboveground.

A High‐Resolution Method Using Individual Females to Assess the Competitiveness of Sterile Drosophila suzukii Males Under Semi‐Controlled Conditions

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
A high‐resolution, novel method to assess the sexual competitiveness of sterile mass‐reared Drosophila suzukii males is calibrated and illustrated using different laboratory and wild type strains. Isolation of individual females after semi‐controlled cage competition tests and subsequent observation of their progeny showed that sterile males from two ...
