Copyright © Springer-Verlag 2011. ; Coccinella undecimpunctata L. is a euryphagous predator established in Azores that offers interesting potential as a control agent in the context of integrated pest management (IPM). However, to further develop IPM against aphids, it is important to evaluate the effects that insecticides might have on voracity. Thus, we proposed to evaluate the effects of pirimicarb and pyme...
O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência de tratamentos térmicos no aumento do potencial de frigoconservação de nêsperas 'Fukuhara' e os efeitos desses tratamentos na qualidade e nas propriedades físico-químicas e bioquímicas dos frutos. Os tratamentos de condicionamento térmico foram: armazenamento a 1ºC durante 60 dias (controle); armazenamento a 5ºC durante 60 dias (padrão); armazenamento a 5ºC, du...
Copyright © 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

Copyright © 2006, Taylor & Francis. ; The influence of deltamethrin on the reproduction of Trichogramma cordubensis, a thelytokous egg parasitoid, was investigated by studying egg maturation and daily fecundity of insecticide treated wasps and offspring emergence rates. The insecticide was applied to the parasitoids at the prepupal stage within its host eggs (Ephestia kuehniella ). The total number of parasiti...
XII Expedição Científica do Departamento de Biologia - Pico 2005. ; In order to record new Coccinellidae species to the Azores, forty one samplings were made in S. Miguel, Graciosa and Pico islands. Graciosa and Pico islands surveys were performed during the scientific expeditions organised by the Department of Biology from the University of the Azores, between the 7th and 15th of June, 2004 and the 6th and 15...
