HARPALUS CALIGINOSUS AS A STRAWBERRY PEST, WITH NOTES ON OTHER PHYTOPHAGUS CARABIDÆ

Effect of methyl salicylate-based lures on beneficial and pest arthropods in strawberry.

Methyl salicylate (MeSA) is a common herbivore-induced plant volatile that, when applied to crops, has the potential to enhance natural enemy abundance and pest control. The impacts of MeSA in strawberry were unknown and examined in the spring and midsummer period. Strawberry plots contained no lures (control) or two 30-d MeSA lures (Predalure) in the center: one lure 0.61 m aboveground over a ...

Notes on Certain Other (0,2) Correlation Functions

In this paper we shall describe some correlation function computations in perturbative heterotic strings that generalize B model computations. On the (2, 2) locus, correlation functions in the B model receive no quantum corrections, but off the (2, 2) locus, that can change. Classically, the (0, 2) analogue of the B model is equivalent to the previously-discussed (0, 2) analogue of the A model,...
