RESPONSES OF SITOPHILUS ORYZAE (COLEOPTERA: CURCULIONIDAE) AND TRIBOLIUM CONFUSUM (COLEOPTERA: TENEBRIONIDAE) TO TRAPS BAITED WITH PHEROMONES AND FOOD VOLATILES

The behavioural responses of two species of stored-product beetles, Sitophilus oryzae Books (L.) and Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val, to certain stimuli were studied in laboratory choice tests.The results of these experiments indicated that, with one species present, S.oryzae and T.confusum adults were equally attracted to traps baited with the

BACKGROUND: MicroRNA (miRNA) are negative regulators of gene expression, capable of exerting pronounced influences upon the translation and stability of mRNA.They are potential regulators of normal mammary Pancake gland development and of the maintenance of mammary epithelial progenitor cells.This study was undertaken to determine the role of miR-3

Common Pancake tyrosinase (TYR) inhibitors used in cosmetics, such as hydroquinone, kojic acid, and arbutin, can cause side effects including erythema, skin peeling, and dryness.Therefore, the development of natural whitening agents that offer excellent permeability, minimal irritation, and high safety has become a primary focus in the field of TYR

The background to writing this article was the variety of linguistic phenomena in reduplication used in local print media.This phenomenon is evident in the diversity of types and categories of essential words/primary forms that form reduplication.This research aims to describe the types and categorization of words that form reduplication in local p

Abstract Quantum machine learning models have the potential to offer speedups and better predictive accuracy compared to their classical counterparts.However, these quantum algorithms, like their classical counterparts, have been shown to also be vulnerable to input perturbations, in particular for classification problems.These can arise either fro
