Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Population Ecology, EarlyView.Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

Shear-induced sedimentation in yield stress fluids [PDF]
, 2012 Stability of coarse particles against gravity is an important issue in dense suspensions (fresh concrete, foodstuff, etc.). On the one hand, it is known that they are stable at rest when the interstitial paste has a high enough yield stress; on the other

Folia Horticulturae, 2022 The use of waste apple-wood as a source of sawdust to cultivate the mushrooms Pleurotus ostreatus and Lentinula edodes is a common practice, but it is imperative to ensure that the wood does not contain unsafe amounts of heavy-metals or pesticide ...

Population Ecology, EarlyView.Population size and dynamics fundamentally shape speciation by influencing genetic drift, founder events, and adaptive potential. Small populations may speciate rapidly due to stronger drift, whereas large populations harbor more genetic diversity, which can alter divergence trajectories. We highlight theoretical models that incorporate population size

Yield gap and the shares of climate and crop management in yield and yield variability of staple crops in West Africa. [O-3330b-01] [PDF]
, 2015 " Yield gap " (Yg) is a key concept of agricultural science for identifying the room for improvement of yields through better management of the agroecosystem. in rainfed agriculture Yg is the difference between actual yield (Ya) and the theoretical water

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2021 Sweet cherry is one of the most popular fresh fruits in the world. Previously, we isolated a soilborne dark septate endophyte (DSE) strain, S16, which promoted the growth of Gisela 5 sweet cherry rootstock.

Mechanisms and kinetic assays of aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Accurate protein synthesis is crucial for life. The key players are aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases (AARSs), which read the genetic code by pairing cognate amino acids and tRNAs. AARSs establish high amino acid selectivity by employing physicochemical limits in molecular recognition.

Yield statistics of interpolated superoscillations
, 2016 Yield Optimized Interpolated Superoscillations (YOIS) have been recently introduced as a means for possibly making the use of the phenomenon of superoscillation practical. In this paper we study how good is a superoscillation that is not optimal. Namely,

The combined effects of cover design parameters on tomato production of a passive greenhouse [PDF]
, 2008 The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the need of a multiple design parameter approach to greenhouse design. To illustrate this need, we determined the combined effects of cover design parameters on tomato production of a passive greenhouse, that

BMC Plant BiologyBackground Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is susceptible to abiotic factors during its growth period, such as salt and drought. The germination stage is the initial growth stage of wheat growth, when wheat is particularly sensitive to salt and drought ...
