A Computer Simulation Model of Waterhyacinth and Weevil Interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
A personal computer simulation model termed INSECT has been developed to evaluate biological control of waterhyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms.) by two species of weevil (Neochetina eichhorniae Warner, and N. bruchi Hustache).

Sainfoin stand termination: Variable herbicide efficacy in field conditions

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Effective termination of perennial forage legumes is a critical step in a crop rotation system, particularly in arid and semi‐arid regions where soil moisture conservation and timely establishment of subsequent crops are essential. Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.), a deep‐rooted, drought‐tolerant forage legume gaining renewed interest ...

Early evolutionary history of the seed

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1511-1553, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Nineteen Years Later: Long‐Term Beetle and Wētā Community Responses to Mammal Eradication at Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari (SMM), New Zealand's largest pest‐fenced ecosanctuary, provides a unique opportunity to study invertebrate responses to mammal eradication. Beetles and wētā were monitored within the mouse‐free southern exclosure and in adjacent comparable forests on the mountain, within the predator‐proof fence (in 2004/05, then 2006 ...
