the colorado beetle, leptinotarsa decemlineata (say), is the major defoliating and exotic insect pest of potato plants and has caused serious problems in the east azerbaijan and ardabil regions of iran since emerging in the absence of natural native enemies. in the development of a suitable control strategy based on integrated pest management, it is important to recognize control methods that d...

Viral diseases have been a major limiting factor threating sustainable potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) production in Pakistan. Surveys were conducted to serologically quantify the incidence of RNA viruses infecting potato; Potato virus X (PVX), Potato virus Y (PVY), Potato virus S (PVS), Potato virus A (PVA), Potato virus M (PVM) and Potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) in two major potato cultivars (De...

ABSTRACT The original two-order separating sieve has a good potato-soil ability, but it causes significant damage to potatoes while ensuring high potato detection rate, which in turn affects the working effectiveness of digger. Thus, is necessary improve design swing separation with surface one three-order solve contradiction between and damage. On this basis, movement characteristics performan...

A widespread opinion before the credit crisis of 2007/8 was that securitisation enhances financial stability by dispersing credit risk. After the credit crisis, securitisation was blamed for allowing the hot potato of bad loans to be passed to unsuspecting investors. Both views miss the endogeneity of credit supply. Securitisation enables credit expansion through higher leverage of the financia...

As important informatics interventions, clinical reminders (CRs) translate emerging knowledge into accessible advice at the point-of-care. In a timely fashion, CRs prompt clinicians to take specific actions that can improve or optimize patient care. To ensure that CRs achieve their desired impact, systems must deliver CRs to the clinicians most likely to act on them. Sadly, CRs many times pass ...

I analyze packet routing on unidirectional ring networks, with an eye towards establishing bounds on the expected length of the queues. Suppose we route packets by a greedy “hot potato” protocol. If packets are inserted by a Bernoulli process and have uniform destinations around the ring, and if the nominal load is kept fixed, then I can construct an upper bound on the expected queue length per...
