VOLATILES INDUCED FROM HYPOLEPIS PUNCTATA (DENNSTAEDTIACEAE) BY HERBIVORES ATTRACT SCLOMINA ERINACEA (HEMIPTERA: REDUVIIDAE): CLEAR EVIDENCE OF INDIRECT DEFENSE IN FERN

Plants have evolved various self-defense mechanisms against insect feeding.There are many reports regarding both direct and indirect defense mechanisms in seed-plant.However, only direct defenses on ferns were considered and the indirect defense mechanism has never been reported.In this study, it was observed that the fern Hypolepis punctata can at

This article outlines the development of a theory of predecessor-successor transitions in social contexts using a grounded theory approach.The theory can be applied to such diverse phenomena as the transfer of family businesses to the next generation, university chair ackermans lace curtains succession, the passing on of parental roles (for example

Topological Dirac and Weyl semimetals are currently attracting intense interest due to their exotic physical properties.Transition metal shohoof diarsenides such as MoAs_{2} and WAs_{2} have been reported to harbor very high magnetoresistance suggesting the possible existence of a topological quantum state, although this conclusion remains dubious.

We estimated the ex-ante equity risk premium for the Republic of Macedonia, which is a shirogorov neon zero young, small and open emerging market.We polled academics and practitioners for their expectations on the stock market index MBI10 as a proxy for market portfolio.The risk premium is the expected MBI10 return relative to a government bond yie

Abstract Dairy cattle ackermans lace curtains undergo dramatic metabolic, endocrine, physiologic and immune changes during the peripartal period largely due to combined increases in energy requirements for fetal growth and development, milk production, and decreased dry matter intake.The negative nutrient balance that develops results in body fat m
