Although the specific mechanisms of locust phase transformation are wellunderstood for model locust species such as the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria and the migratory locust Locusta migratoria, the expressions of density-dependent phase polyphenism in other nonmodel locust species are not wellknown. The present paper is an attempt to review and synthesize what we know about these nonmode...

The article analyzes the importance of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) in forest-agricultural landscapes Ukraine. As a result cultivation and invasion became part landscape number European countries, particular Ukraine, as well component culture economy, including cultural historical heritage. In some this tree species is economically important used to obtain commercial wood firewood, bi...

Different biological parameters of the stink bugs, Nezara viridula L. and Piezodorus guildinii Westwood (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), are affected by the developmental stage of the soybean (Glycine max Merrill) pods they feed on. These effects of the soybean on the stink bugs could represent a selection pressure leading to the ability of these species to discriminate the phenological stage of soyb...

This paper presents the implementation and performance evaluation of Locust, a compiler-directed distributed shared memory system on a network of workstations. The thesis of the Locust project is that the distributed shared memory program performance can closely approximate message passing program performance if compiler-generated data dependency information is eeectively exploited. Locust uses...
