1. The sub-lethal effects of hydrologic disturbances on stream invertebrates are poorly understood, but integral to some models of how disturbances influence population and community dynamics. Carnivorous larvae of a net-spinning caddisfly, Plectrocnemia conspersa , have a strong predatory impact in ...
Pollinators, particularly wild bees, are suffering declines across the globe, and pesticides are thought to be drivers of these declines. Research into, and regulation of pesticides has focused on the active ingredients, and their impact on bee health. I
Prior work has used functional MRI to investigate the brain response to taVNS, and more recent work has also demonstrated potential therapeutic effects of high-frequency sub-threshold taVNS in rheumatoid arthritis. However, no studies to date have measured the effects of high-frequency sub-...

Effects of sub-chronic exposure concentration also significantly inhibited the OCR and AER of C. dauricus (Fig. 1A,B). At the concentration of 2.06 mg/L, OCR decreased by 39.6% and 52.4% on days 7 and 14 respectively compared to the control group. For the group exposed to 4.12 mg/L ...
A closer look at the sub-bandgap “turn-on” In order to understand the origin of the sub-bandgap turn-on and further explore the role of higher order recombination processes such as Auger-assisted up-conversion at the heterojunction interface or TTA, we examine theL(J)-characteristics andJ(...
IPM; pesticide; partial prey consumption; sub-lethal effects; side-effects Graphical Abstract1. Introduction Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in tomato crops is a complex process since many insect pests may be simultaneously present on tomato plants sharing high reproduction rates, multivoltinism and ...
Urban plants vs. pollution: studying SO/sub 2/ effects 来自 osti.gov 喜欢 0 阅读量: 7 摘要: Using precisely controlled conditions-temperature, light, and humidity in a growth chamber, the basic relationships between woody plants and air pollution are being studied. significant differences in the...
Sub-lethal effects, including delayed larval development and adult emergence or shortened adult longevity, can have indirect effects on the colony such as premature shifts in hive roles and foraging activity. In addition, longer development time for bees may provide a reproductive advantage for ...
frequency. Shedding of the exoskeleton may represent a mechanism through which prawns can expel the contaminant from their bodies. These results indicate that prawns experience several different sub-lethal effects when exposed to these pesticides, which may have implications for the health of populations...
