The result showed that: (1) Under 21-31°C and 1 - 9 prey densities/leaf fragment condition, the prey consumptions of A. cucumeris increased with the temperature or prey density; (2) In 1:3 predator-prey ratio treatment, the suppression of P. citri (Ro=34.0053; T=19.4369; t=3.8204) was rather weak, it was enhanced as the ratio over 5:30, and the populations of P. citri in these treatments can be fully controlled within 4-5 days; (3) Under 25±1°C, 80-85% RH and 15L: 9D illumination conditions, the net reproductive rate, mean generation duration and the time for population double increase of P. citri (Ro=34.0053; T=19.4369; t=3.8204) were higher than those of A. cucumeris (Ro=21.8750; T=16.8943; t=3.7954). While the intrinsic rate of increase and finite rate of increase of the former (rm=0.1814; λ=1.1989) were lower than those of the latter (rm=0.1826; λ=1.2004). These results indicated that A. cucumeris is a desirable bio-control agent to suppress P. citri at lower population stage in citrus orchard.展开更多

Providing different Quality of Service (QoS) assurance for different services has become a crucial problem in future network. Admission control is a vital function for multi-service IP network. This paper proposes a novel fuzzy admission control scheme based on coarse granularity service-aware technique. Different service has discriminative sensitivity to the same QoS characteristic parameter in general. The traffic class can be perceived by the service request parameter and the proposed QoS function. And requirements of dif- ferent applications can be met by maintaining the life parameter. From simulation results, the proposed scheme shows a better QoS provisioning than those traditional fuzzy logic based methods under the same admission probability.展开更多

It is unavoidable for DBMs to be exposed to sublethal dose of metaflumizone in brassicaceous vegetable field. Sublethal effects of metaflumizone at LC15 （1.06 mg L-1） and LCz5 （2.03 mg L-1） on the biological characteristics were investigated. Pupation rate, pupal period and pupal weight were significantly declined comparing with the control （P=0.05） when third instar larvae were exposed to LC15 and LC25 of metaflumizone. Comparing the control group to LC15 and LC25 treatment groups, there were significant differences in the development periods of eggs, first instar larvae, pupae and total preoviposition period. The peak of age-specific fecundity in LC15 and LC25 treatment groups was lagged behind control group. Mean values of intrinsic rate of increase （rm）, net reproductive rate （R0） and finite rate of increase （λ） observed from the LCl5 and LC25 treatment groups were lower than those from the control group. But mean values of gross reproduction rate （GRR） was not different. The mean generation time （T） of the treatment groups was prolonged. Whether sublethal doses of metaflumizone could stimulate reproduction in the long term needs further investigation on continuous generations.展开更多
The life table parameters of two-spotted spider mite （TSSM）, Tetranychus urticae Koch, on 14 soybean genotypes （Sari, Sahar, Tellar, Zane, Ks3494, LI7, Dpx, 032, 033, Clark, Hill, 127, Tms and Williams） were evalu...The life table parameters of two-spotted spider mite （TSSM）, Tetranychus urticae Koch, on 14 soybean genotypes （Sari, Sahar, Tellar, Zane, Ks3494, LI7, Dpx, 032, 033, Clark, Hill, 127, Tms and Williams） were evaluated at 28 ±1℃, 65% ± 5% RH and a photoperiod of 16 ： 8 h L ： D. The survivorship data （lx） of adult females were fitted to the Weibull frequency distribution model in all genotypes tested. Based on the Weibull parameters, the survival curve was type I on all genotypes, which indicated that the mortality mostly occurred in old individuals. Furthermore, two mathematical models （Analytis and Enkegaard） were fitted to age-specific fecundity data （mx）. The highest intrinsic rate of increase （rm） was recorded on L17 （0.392） and the lowest values of this parameter were obtained on Tms （0.233）, Hill （0.236）, 032 （0.236）, 127 （0.237） and Clark （0.240）. In addition, net reproductive rate （R0） and finite rate of increase （λ） of the TSSM had the highest value on L17 as 45.521 and 1.475, respectively. The lowest values of these parameters were recorded on Tms as 12.149 and 1.258, respectively. Doubling time （DT） varied significantly on different genotypes and the shortest and longest values of this period were obtained on L17 and 032, respectively. Our findings revealed that Tms, Hill, 032, 127 and Clark were less suitable genotypes, suggesting that they are more resistant to the TSSM than the other genotypes.展开更多
