Protecting temperate old‐growth forests as biotic microrefugia amid climate change

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Old‐growth forests are essential biotic microrefugia, providing high carbon storage, biodiversity, and stable microclimates that protect understorey species from climatic extremes. Their resilience to drought and disturbance makes them more effective than younger forests, yet habitat loss, fragmentation, and climate change increasingly threaten these ...

Peduncle detection of sweet pepper for autonomous crop harvesting: Combined colour and 3D information

, 2017
This paper presents a 3D visual detection method for the challenging task of detecting peduncles of sweet peppers (Capsicum annuum) in the field. Cutting the peduncle cleanly is one of the most difficult stages of the harvesting process, where the ...

Differential reaction of sweet pepper to infection with the crinivirus tomato chlorosis virus probably depends on the viral variant

, 2022
The tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV), transmitted by whitefly species of the genera Bemisia and Trialeurodes in a semipersistent manner, causes significant losses in solanaceous crops including tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum)

Competitive Interactions Between Generalist Predators and Their Effects on Shared and Non‐Shared Pests in a Greenhouse Crop

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

Between famine and freedom: Food prices during the Indonesian War of Independence, 1945–9

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates how the Indonesian War of Independence (1945‒9) influenced staple food prices, and how fluctuations in those prices, in turn, shaped the trajectory and dynamics of the conflict. We compiled a dataset comprising more than 8600 prices for staple foods covering the entire Indonesian archipelago from 1939‒49, allowing us to

Genetic variability of anther donor versus spontaneous doubled haploid descendents and colchicine induced doubled haploid sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) lines

, 2001
Haploid (n) and doubled haploid (DH) plants were developed in anther culture of sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.). Regenerants were analyzed by flow cytometry for haploid (n = 12) and spontaneous doubled haploid (2n = 24) genomes.

Evaluation of Tooth Erosion Potential of Zero and Carbonated Beverages in Korea: A Laboratory‐Based Study Focused on pH

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives With increasing health consciousness, the consumption of zero‐calorie beverages (zero beverages) is also increasing. Zero beverages are devoid of sugar or alternative sugar content. Tooth erosion possibility continues to be reported in cases of carbonated beverage consumption.

Morphological Differentiation of Flower buds in Sweet Pepper

, 2014
甜椒花芽分化以銘星品種而言，二片本葉苗齡時，已具花芽原始體，藍星品種則需至三片本葉始達此階段，在藍星品種切片試驗觀察中，可見花萼形成期所需時間較長。花芽原始體出現後，莖頂開始增寬成圓頂狀，在芽體兩側依序發生，形成花萼，其後花瓣，隨後雄蕊及雌蕊心皮的分化，完成花芽之分化。Flower bud differentiation of pepper had shown cultivar Andalus flower primoduim at 2 leaf stage while cultivar Blue ...
