Two main factors affect pest abundance in citrus plants: temperature and new growth. At temperatures between 68-86°F, female psyllids live 30-35 days and lay 300-800 eggs, while temperatures over 90°F reduce lifespan and eggs to less than 30 days and 70 eggs. Integrated Pest Management strategies like cultural, chemical, and biological controls are used to effectively maintain pest populations, with young trees requiring more protection than mature trees.

Effectiveness of anthraquinone and methylanthranilate against house sparrow (...
Among avian pests, house sparrow caused serious depredations, not only to seeds, but also seedlings of various crops particularly in the organic farming. Different mechanical and chemical ways have been reported to manage these losses all over the world. The present study was aimed to investigate the efficacy of two bird repellents namely methylanthranilate and anthraquinone to manage the depredations of wheat seeds and seedlings against house sparrow in captivity. For this purpose house sparrows were offered with treated and untreated seeds and seedlings of wheat in two aviaries. By providing treated seeds and seedlings with these repellents, the relative effectiveness was appraised by comparing the consumed and unconsumed seeds and seedlings. Feeding responses of these birds against different doses of these repellents were investigated with the help of the closed circuit cameras adjusted in the aviaries. During the whole experiment among trial and control group highly significant differences (P<0.01)><0.05)>0.05) variance when wheat seeds and seedlings were offered to house sparrows. House sparrows were influenced more quickly by consuming wheat seeds and seedlings treated with both repellents. Sparrows displayed noticeable head-shaking and feather ruffling behavior by consuming the treated seeds and seedlings.

Germplasm and its conservation
This document discusses germplasm and its conservation. It begins by defining germplasm as a collection of genetic resources for an organism, such as a seed bank or gene bank, that contains the genetic information for a species. Germplasm conservation is important to preserve genetic diversity and provide plant breeders resources to develop new crop varieties. Methods of conservation include in situ conservation of plants in their natural habitat and ex situ conservation of seeds, tissues, cells or DNA stored outside the natural habitat. Cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen at -196°C is an effective long-term storage method that stops cellular metabolism. The document outlines the cryopreservation process and applications for conserving plant species and genetic variations.

This document discusses biorational pesticides, which are defined as having fundamentally different and lower risk modes of action than conventional pesticides. It covers the history of pesticide use, the regulatory drivers for developing reduced-risk pesticides, and how biorationals fit into integrated pest management approaches. The document also describes different types of biorational products like insect growth regulators, microbials, botanicals, and neonicotinoids. It discusses how biorationals can help improve sustainability in agriculture, public health, and natural resource management by providing effective pest control while being safer for humans and the environment.
Germplasm conservation
Cryopreservation is a method for long-term conservation of plant genetic resources by storing plant materials like seeds, tissues, cells, pollen, etc. at ultra-low temperatures, usually in liquid nitrogen at -196°C. This preserves the viability and genetic integrity of the materials. There are several advantages like maintaining a large number of accessions in a small space and providing pathogen-free plant materials. Successful cryopreservation involves pretreatment with cryoprotectants, controlled freezing and thawing, then regeneration of plants from the stored materials. It allows preservation of plant genetic diversity for future use in breeding programs.
Winning the battle against tuta absoluta
Tuta Absoluta, commonly known as Tomato leafminer, Tomato Borer, Tomato Moth, is characterized by a high reproduction potential. Each female can lay between 250 to 300 eggs. They can attack at any crop stage and has been known to cause up to 100% crop destruction.
Tuta Absoluta was reported in Nigeria in 2015, presently thousands of farmers have suffered huge losses due to this pest.
The approach to properly manage T. absoluter has to be a long term, strategic and holistic. No one method, no matter how effective, is capable of controlling Tuta Absoluta as this pest quickly develops resistance. Winning the battle involves the adoption of a holistic and all-encompassing approach.
Development and dispersal of mites

It discusses the life cycles, feeding habits, and commercial use of various predatory mite species, including Phytoseiulus persimilis, Neoseiulus cucumeris, N. barkeri, and N. californicus. It also describes how some of these species have been successfully used for biological control of spider mites, thrips, and other pests on greenhouse crops like cucumbers.
Integrated Pest Management.pptx
IPM is an ecosystem-based strategy that focuses on long-term prevention of pests or their damage through a combination of techniques such as biological control, habitat manipulation, modification of cultural practices, and use of resistant varieties. Pesticides are used only after monitoring indicates they are needed according to established guidelines, and treatments are made with the goal of removing only the target organism. Pest control materials are selected and applied in a manner that minimizes risks to human health, beneficial and nontarget organisms, and the environment.

This document reports on a study that investigated the effects of various phytochemicals (plant-derived chemicals) on the post-embryonic development of the lesser mealworm beetle (Alphitobius diaperinus). Treatments with neem oil, eucalyptus oil, sesame oil, and mustard oil resulted in substantial declines in survival rates and sizes of larval instars of A. diaperinus compared to the control group. The duration of the larval instars also increased following treatment, with the greatest increase seen after treatment with neem oil and the lowest increase with mustard oil. The study aims to explore natural pesticide alternatives to synthetic insecticides for control of this beetle,

The technology uses reclaimed CO₂ as the dyeing medium in a closed loop process. When pressurized, CO₂ becomes supercritical (SC-CO₂). In this state CO₂ has a very high solvent power, allowing the dye to dissolve easily.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
Equivariant neural networks and representation theory
Or: Beyond linear.
Abstract: Equivariant neural networks are neural networks that incorporate symmetries. The nonlinear activation functions in these networks result in interesting nonlinear equivariant maps between simple representations, and motivate the key player of this talk: piecewise linear representation theory.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
