some safer strategies were designed and evaluated for management of apical leaf curling (chilcv) in chilli capsicum annum l. and its vectors. the strategies were designed emphasizing on the repellent crop theory and the components like physical barrier, adult-trapping, plant sanitation, foliar application of phytochemicals and minimal application of synthetic organic pesticide. the crop was inf...

In this paper, we ask “Can proximity to towns reduces poverty in rural areas?” For this study we have mapped all the villages in Orissa. The study is based on small area poverty estimation methodology as well as the secondary data covering 47,395 villages and 109 towns. Our main findings are (i) there is a relationship between the distance to nearest town and rural poverty and (ii) poverty leve...

An increase in the ability to timely meet commitments which will be due in the near future is a prerequisite for the survival of banks. Hence, the correct and optimal management of liquidity is an important affair that banks should perform. The present study aimed mainly to test the management of asset-liability and liquidity trap in the Credit Institute for Development. The research is applied...

two continuously regenerating traps crt-a and crt-b were evaluated under the controlled carbonyl emissions from a turbocharged diesel engine run on an ac electrical dynamometer. the gas-phase carbonyls were taken in silica gel cartridges coated with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine both upstream (baseline) and downstream of the traps, and a total of fourteen carbonyls were identified and then quantif...

telomerase activation is one of the main pathways to immortalize cancer cells. in many kinds of cancer cells, this special reverse transcriptase stabilizes and elongates telomeres and prevents telomere erosion that naturally occurs in every cell division. esophageal cancer is the fifth most frequent cause of cancer death worldwide, and is highly associated with alcohol, smoking, cultural habits...

Abstract To evaluate perimeter trap crops for management of harlequin bug, Murgantia histrionica (Hahn), we undertook greenhouse and field experiments with mustard greens as crop a collard cash crop. We confirmed that bugs prefer to immigrate reside on mustard. Females, however, in cage experiments, ‘commuted’ collards lay their eggs. In separate spring fall plantings, using replicated 12 m by ...

Push-pull technology (PPT) employs mixed cropping for sustainable intensification: an intercrop repels or suppresses pests of the focal crop (push), while a trap attracts out field (pull), where they may be targeted control. Underlying chemical-ecological mechanisms have been demonstrated in controlled settings, primarily some best-established cereal PPT systems developed east Africa. Yet, many...
