Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBiological Control of Spodoptera frugiperda Eggs Using Telenomus remus Nixon in Maize-Bean-Squash PolycultureAntonio GutiA©rrez-MartAnez, Alfredo Tolon-Becerra, Xavier B. Lastra-BravoThe maize earworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is an important pest in maize. Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) is an important control agent of this pest due to its capacity to invade the whole egg mass. The percentage of parasitism by Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) on Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) eggs was evaluated in maize-bean, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 17 Jul 2012 · 10,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Comparison of Experimental and Analytical Study of the Gaussian IntensityDistribution for Light Emitting Diodes BeamMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Luqman Al-Hakim Azizan, Harry Ramza, Zulkifli MusaProblem statement: Wireless communication using white Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) is the latest research field for next-generation communication. This study studies the comparison of Gaussian intensity distribution of the white LED using experimental and analytical method. The white LEDs are conducted to transmit an audio signal to the receiver. The receiver circuit consist of solar cell connected to the speaker … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 17 Mar 2012 · 7,271 accessesView PDFCite
