http://www.eje.cz peaches) are the crops most susceptible to infestation. In Andalusia (southern Spain), D. suzukii was fi rst detected in 2012 in the province of Huelva. As over 80% of the berries in Spain are produced in Huelva, they are an important socio-economic driver in this region. Damage of around 80% of the strawberry crop, 100% of the cherry crop and 100% of organic crops were detected relatively shortly after D. suzukii arrived in Spain (Sorribas, 2013).In conventional farming D. suzukii is mainly chemically controlled in Europe using organophosphorates, pyrethroids and spinosyns. However, using these insecticides has consequences in terms of resistance (Bruck et al., 2011;Smirle et al., 2017; Gress & Zalom, 2019) and environmental pollution, is detrimental to benefi cial arthropods, incompatible with organic management and violates the MRL (maximum residue limit) zero tolerance policy in
The main aim of this article is to present a heritage action protocol based on the application of photogrammetric and LiDAR acquisitions, a catalogue of flora and fauna, archeological research, and 3D virtualization for the integrated recovery of a rural cultural heritage site located in the Alto Guadiato Valley of Cordoba, Spain. This joint multidisciplinary action focusing on a common heritage objective has resulted in a comprehensive and innovative action: the virtualization of an 800-hectare multitemporal archeological landscape. The results may be of interest to researchers, educators, and tourism agents, or for the dissemination of scientific knowledge, among other applications. The protocol of actions implemented in the framework of this project can be replicated in sites with similar characteristics, particularly rural areas with well-preserved landscapes that have not been investigated. The main result of the project is the preservation of geomorphological features using remote sensing technologies and the creation of a virtual lookout for this historical and natural landscape (GuadiatVR), which is a very uncommon outcome within the virtualization of historical landscapes. The lookout can be downloaded from Google Play on IOS.
Most studies on the family Noctuidae focus on very few species that cause damage to crops; however, there is little information on the biology and ecology of the remaining species of noctuid moths. This work examines the relationship of the larvae of Cucullia calendulae with their main food plant Calendula arvensis. The results showed that the larvae of this species feed on the fruiting bodies, reaching an overall incidence of ca. 30%. In addition, there was a differential distribution of larvae according to their size. Early stages were found in the reproductive structures while latter stages were found on the stems, which should be due to a defensive strategy. Furthermore, from seven characteristics of the patch taken into account, only the height of the plant explained a greater number of larvae per patch.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
