Ideally, life expectancy should be a decreasing function of age. When this fact is not observed, situation known as the table paradox. This paper investigated timing (and health metrics at time) in which Brazil and its Federation Units (FU) overcame (or are expected to overcome) The data were gathered from Brazilian Institute Geography Statistics contained 3,416 sex-specific abridged tables, 20...

sorts.

the host plant quality not only influences on herbivorous insects but also indirectly could impact on their natural enemies’ performance. the current study was conducted to determine the effect of different nitrogen fertilization levels of canola (brassica napus l.) on life table parameters of the predatory gall midge, aphidoletes aphidimyza rondani; diptera: cecidomyiidae, in feeding of mustar...

an investigation was carried out to study the developmental time, reproduction and life table of three populations of the onion thrips, thrips tabaci lindeman, on onion (khorasan and golestan populations) and also on tobacco (mazandaran population) in the laboratory at 25â°c, 50% rh and 16: 8 h l: d. the total life cycle from egg to adult of khorasan, golestan and mazandaran populations were ga...

Experiments were conducted to evaluate the response of different originated (the same mother plants with different growers from different cities in Ethiopia) cut rose flowers to various relative humidity (RH) and recut (recut and non-recut). Three different experiments (E1, E2 and E3) using three RH (60, 75 and 90%) and three Ethiopian growing areas (Fleur, Liki and Longonot) with 10 replicatio...
