The air potato beetle, Lilioceris cheni Gressitt and Kimoto TOYS OTHER (Coleoptera:Chrysomelidae), is a successful biological control agent of the air potato vine, Dioscorea bulbifera L.(Dioscoreales: Dioscoreaceae), in the southern United States.Lilioceris cheni is currently being mass-reared by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer S

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a type of eating disorder that has been increasing in incidence and has been encountered more commonly by physicians in their daily practice.Both environmental and genetic risk factors paired along with a more susceptible neurobiology are at play in the emerging resistance to treatment in AN.Preoccupations with intense fear

In this paper, we present the properties of flexible planar optical waveguides made of siloxane-based polymer Focus deposited on Xerox transparent paper and PLEXIGLAS foil substrate.Measurement of optical properties such as the waveguiding properties and refractive index is carried out by the prism coupling technique for five wavelengths (473, 632.

The object of this study is polycrystalline materials containing intercrystalline boundaries in face centered cubic and body centered cubic crystals.A wide variety of geometric characteristics that determine the atomic structure and physical properties of intercrystalline boundaries, gives rise to the expediency of systematization of the entire set
