Today it is necessary to encourage the use of environmentally friendly biopesticides. On the other hand, the residues of pesticides in the fruits are a problem for its commercialization. In this work we analyze extracts of Euphorbia helioscopia against the growth of Penicillium digitatum. This fungus is responsible for the green rot and it produces great losses in the citrus fruits, being so important this crop for the Mediterranean region. Ou...
We have applied the physical intuition of thin film optics to the modelling of photonic crystal slabs. The first three Chapters of this book present some basic concepts from thin film optics: Maxwell's equations, Fresnel reflection and transmission at a planar interface, reflection and transmission through a dielectric slab of finite thickness. Next, a matrix generalisation, to photonic crystal slabs, of the main scattering coefficients of thi...
Le présent ouvrage se veut un questionnement pluriel, à l'heure où les pays de tous les continents sont soumis à la dure réalité d'un terrorisme qui ne cesse de renouveler son mode opératoire. Qu'est-ce qui séduit la femme maghrébine dans l'acte de tuer? D'où tient-elle ce courage sadique qui frise l'effroyable et défie l'entendement humain ? Son statut de tueuse de sang-froid n'est-il pas, à bien y voir, une stratégie d'affirmation de sa pers...

Esta obra tem como objetivo, apresentar ao leitor o projeto de uma semeadora/adubadora para o sistema de plantio direto empregando sulcadores rotativos para o rompimento do solo e corte da palhada. A elaboração desse projeto teve início com diversas pesquisas de campo, por meio das quais foi possível observar que em grande parte das propriedades agrícolas familiares os motocultivadores encontram-se presentes, no entanto, sendo subutilizados. A...

Le royaume d'Aja-W¿r¿ serait fondé vers le XVIIe siècle par des Aja venus des régions du Mono (Agbanaken). Sa fondation est antérieure au royaume de Itakété (Sakété).

Cependant, la minorité aja (au nombre de six (06) et un chien, selon la tradition) s'est imposée...
It is known, according to recent research that there are morphological and physiological differences between cattle and buffaloes. Buffaloes have still semi-wild characteristics compared with other farm animals. Veterinarians always complain about the behavior and temperament of buffaloes which are vicious and indocile. In this trial, a comparative study of the recent well-known tranquillisers and sedatives was carried out to investigate their...
Georgia is well-known as "Open Air Museum of Soils" among soils science community across the globe. Different soil types and varieties are determined by short-range change of its formation factors, mainly by relief, elevation and climate conditions. Assessment of the soil resources and their capacities is well recognized challenge for the country. Investigation of physical properties of the soils is one of the very important directions to meet...
