ANALOG SWITCHING AND ARTIFICIAL SYNAPTIC BEHAVIOR OF AG/SIO X :AG/TIO X /P++-SI MEMRISTOR DEVICE


Moderate plant water stress improves larval development, and impacts immunity and gut microbiota of a specialist herbivore.

While host plant drought is generally viewed as a negative phenomenon, its impact on insect herbivores can vary largely depending on the species involved and on the intensity of the drought.Extreme drought killing host plants can clearly reduce herbivore fitness, but the impact of moderate host plant water stress on insect herbivores can vary, and

Use of timelapse photography to determine flower opening time and pattern in banana (Musa spp.) for efficient hand pollination

Abstract Sterility and low seed set in bananas is the main challenge to their conventional genetic improvement.The first step to seed set in a banana breeding program depends on pollination at the right time to ensure effective fertilization.This study aimed at determining bract opening time (BOT) to enhance efficient pollination and seed set in ba

Mathematical and Statistical Modelling for Assessing COVID-19 Superspreader Contagion: Analysis of Geographical Heterogeneous Impacts from Public Events

During a pandemic, public discussion and decision-making may be required in face of limited evidence.Data-grounded analysis can support decision-makers in such contexts, contributing to inform public policies.We present an empirical analysis method based on regression modelling and hypotheses Breath Spray testing to assess events for the possibilit
