Abstract For each integer $$n\ge 1$$ n ≥ 1 we consider the unique polynomials $$P, Q\in {\mathbb {Q}}[x]$$ P , Q ∈ [ x ] of smallest d...

The codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), is an invasive agricultural pest of pome fruits and walnuts in China that threatens the apple industry Loess Plateau Bohai Bay; it has developed resistance to many insecticides. Sterile insect technique (SIT) combined with area-wide integrated management (AW-IPM) can reduce risk insecticides effectively control some species. Our previous laboratory experi...

The production of female germline chimeras is invaluable for analyzing the tissue specificity of recessive female sterile mutations as well as detecting the maternal effect of recessive zygotic lethal mutations. Previously, we developed the "FLP-DFS" technique to efficiently generate germline clones. This technique uses the X-linked germline-dependent dominant female sterile mutation ovoD1 as a...

The present research work was proficiently done at the experimental plot of Birsa Agricultural University, Kanke under rainfed conditions Jharkhand, India during kharif 2021. F7 generation seeds cross Pusa-1176 x BPT-5204 sown as panicle to progeny rows in seed bed nursery and thereafter transplanted into field. In this investigation, study has been oriented more towards male sterility it is se...

Abstract Using umbral calculus, we establish a symmetric identity for any sequence of polynomials satisfying A ′ n +1 ( x ) = + 1) with 0 constant polynomial. This allows us to obtain in simple way some known relations involving Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials, Apostol-Euler and generalized Bernoulli attached primitive Dirichlet character.
