Carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) pod is a characteristic fruit from the Mediterranean regions. It composed by seeds, valuable part due to extraction of locust bean gum, and pulp, considered by-product processing industry. pulp mixture macro- micronutrients, such as carbohydrates, vitamins minerals, secondary metabolites with functional properties. In last few years, numerous studies on chemical bio...

Ansebo, L. 2004. Odour Perception in the Codling Moth Cydia pomonella L. – from Brain to Behaviour. Doctoral dissertation. ISSN 1404-6249, ISBN 91-576-6758-6 The codling moth, Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is a renowned pest in apple, pear and walnut orchards, and its activities are in large guided by volatile odours as sensory cues. This thesis spans over a large part of the ol...

Restoration ecologists are increasingly turning to the development of trait-filter models, which predict how evolved traits limit species membership within assemblages depending on existing abiotic or biotic constraints, as a tool to explain how species move from a regional species pool into a restored community. Two often untested assumptions of these models, however, are that species traits c...

Concerted changes in flower morphology and pollinators provide strong evidence on adaptive evolution. Schizanthus (Solanaceae) has zygomorphic flowers and consists of 12 species of annual or biennial herbs that are distributed mainly in Chile and characterized by bee-, hummingbird-, and moth-pollination syndromes. To infer whether flowers diversified in relation to pollinator shifts, we traced ...

The gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar, is a major defoliator of deciduous trees throughout the northern hemisphere. Introduced into eastern Massachusetts from Europe in 1868 or 1869, it has gradually spread south and west and will soon occupy most of the hardwood forests in the eastern United States and Canada. The gypsy moth has been the subject of intensive study by scientists throughout the world...

1. Generalist natural enemies are usually not considered as being capable of causing population cycles in forest insects, but they may influence the population dynamics of their prey in the low density cycle phase when specialist enemies are largely absent. 2. In the present field study, the total response of the generalist invertebrate predator community to experimentally established pupal den...

abstract background and aims: the cydia pomonella granulovirus (cpgv) is a baculovirus and very effective biological control agent against apple pest, codling moth, cydia pomonella l. especially for healthy organic apple production and protection.  not only, screening of cpgv isolates via biochemical variation, but also their biological variation is practically necessary.  however, the bioassay...
