Biocontrol-Based Integrated Management of Oilseed Rape Pests
Oilseed rape is a major arable crop in both Europe and North America. It is attacked by unique complexes of insect pests still largely controlled through the application of chemical insecticides. Crop management systems for the future must combine sustainability with environmental acceptability to satisfy both social and economic demands. This book, in its 17 chapters each led by a world expert, reviews research progress towards developing integrated pest management systems for the crop that enhance conservation biocontrol. This approach is particularly timely because of the development in Europe of insecticide resistance in the pollen beetle, a major pest of the crop. The past decade has se...
Entomovectoring for Precision Biocontrol and Enhanced Pollination of Crops
This book focuses on entomovectoring, also known as apivectoring, the method used for managing pollinators to increase crop yields and employ strategies of biocontrol in greenhouses and open fields. It is written by experts working in academia and industry from the different continents of the world. Over the past 25 years Research and Development has successfully investigated the potential of pollinators to perform two tasks: dispersal of biological control agents (BCOs) and their pollination service. This book provides a basic overview of the current literature on the different aspects and factors of this novel technology. It explains and presents practical cases of enhancing pollination coupled with the suppression of plant pathogens and pests under various agricultural production practices from greenhouse to open field conditions and crops ranging from orchard fruits, to small and tender berries, vegetables and oil seeds

Karrusellen
I bjergene ved grænseovergangen til landet "Romsland" mødes 12 mennesker tilfældigt. De skal alle have stemplet deres pas af paskontrolløren, som har haft det samme job i 12 år. Problemet er bare, at alle passene er falske. Det samme gælder grænseovergangen, der officielt har været lukket i 15 år... Historien udspiller sig i kontoret hos paskontrolløren, hvor personernes baggrund lidt efter lidt rulles ud. Hvem er de, hvor er de på vej hen, og hvordan er de endt på dette lyssky kontor hos en paskontrollør, der har passet et falsk job i mere end ti år? Eiler Jørgensen (1913-1998) var en dansk forfatter, oversætter og konsulent. Han debuterede som forfatter i 1946 med den humoristiske roman "Lektor Hansens sælsomme hændelser". Hans fortællinger kredser om emner som identitet og tid, og de udspiller sig i vidt forskellige scener – fra 1400-tallets Romsland over det moderne Europa til en fjern fremtid. Eiler Jørgensen var i mange år engageret i Dansk Forfatterforening og virkede som næstformand i 1970'erne. Han var desuden meget berejst og arbejdede i perioder for forskellige humanitære organisationer.
Skumringstimen
I det tidlige efterår omslutter tætte tåger Øland. I begyndelsen af 1970’erne forsvinder en lille dreng sporløst ved skumringstid i den tætte tåge. 20 år senere modtager drengens mor, Julia, hvis liv er gået i stå af sorg og savn, et opkald fra sin far, den pensionerede skipper Gerlof Davidsson. Han beder Julia vende hjem til Øland, for der er muligvis et nyt spor af hans forsvundne barnebarn. Julia vender hjem sin aldrende far og øen. Og der hører hun om den sagnomspundne øbo, Nils Kant, som engang skræmte hele egnen. Han var død og begravet, længe før Julias søn forsvandt, men nogen påstår at have set Nils Kant i skumringen på den ølandske slette. Skumringstimen er en del af Johan Theorins på en gang stemningsmættede og urovækkende Ølandskvartet. Bogen kan læses uafhængigt af de andre bøger i serien.
Making Livonia
The region called Livonia (corresponding to modern Estonia and Latvia) emerged out of the rapid transformation caused by the conquest, Christianisation and colonisation on the north-east shore of the Baltic Sea in the late twelfth and the early thirteenth centuries. These radical changes have received increasing scholarly notice over the last few decades. However, less attention has been devoted to the interplay between the new and the old structures and actors in a longer perspective. This volume aims to study these interplays and explores the history of Livonia by concentrating on various actors and networks from the late twelfth to the seventeenth century. But, on a deeper level, the goal is more ambitious: to investigate the foundation of an increasingly complex and heterogeneous society on the medieval and early modern Baltic frontier – ‘the making of Livonia’.
