the functional response is an important characteristic of predator–prey interactions that determinate which predator species or stage classes of predator is the most effective for pest control. host plant morphological characteristics are the effective factors on predator’s functional response. the objective of this study was to determine whether differences in trichome density of wheat cultiva...

introduction: a fixed hemodynamic response function (hrf) is commonly used for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fmri) analysis. however, hrf may vary from region to region and subject to subject. we investigated the effect of locally estimated hrf (in functionally homogenous parcels) on activation detection sensitivity in a heroin cue reactivity study. methods: we proposed a novel explora...
