PLANT ANTIMICROBIAL PEPTIDES AND THEIR MAIN FAMILIES AND ROLES: A REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE


Optimal Motion Control of a Capsule Endoscope in the Stomach Utilizing a Magnetic Navigation System with Dual Permanent Magnets

We propose a method to control the motion of a capsule endoscope (CE) in the stomach utilizing either a single external permanent magnet (EPM) or dual EPMs to extend the examination of the upper gastrointestinal tract.When utilizing the conventional magnetic navigational system (MNS) with a single EPM to generate tilting and rotational motions of t

Two Better Than One? Potential Effects of Intraguild Predation on the Biological Control of Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae) by the Parasitoid Aganaspis daci (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) and the Predator Pseudoophonus rufipes (Coleoptera: Carabidae)

The use of more than one species to manage a single insect pest is a common practice among biological control programs.However, the beneficial effects Makeup of natural enemies are not always additive, which in many cases may be attributed to interspecific interactions such as intraguild predation (IGP).Herein, we investigated the potential IGP bet
