Soil organic amendment impacts on corn resistance to Helicoverpa zea: Constitutive or induced?
PEDOBIOLOGIA, 55(6), 343–347.
author keywords: Corn; Corn earworm; Vermicompost; Induced-resistance; Feeding preference; Oviposition
TL;DR:
Investigation of the effects of two vermicompost sources Oregon and Raleigh and previous feeding by H. zea larvae on the response and preference of immature and adult stages of the insect to corn plants found that previous conspecific induction appears to have a phagostimulatory effect on larval verMicompost leaf tissue consumption.

2012 conference paper
Set membership state and parameter estimation for nonlinear differential equations with sparse discrete measurements
Ieee international conference on systems man and cybernetics conference, 72–77.
TL;DR:
This paper presents a method to perform parameter and state estimation in a bounded-error context for nonlinear continuous-time systems with sparse, discrete measurements and demonstrates how preprocessing the measurements through the addition of application specific stabilizing bounds vastly improves bounded parameters and state estimations.

Region of attraction estimation of biological continuous Boolean models
Ieee international conference on systems man and cybernetics conference, 1700–1705.
TL;DR:
Assessment of the applicability of a state of the art ROA estimation technique based on interval arithmetic to a subnetwork of the Rb-E2F signaling pathway modeled using continuous Boolean functions shows that this method can successfully be used to provide an estimate of the ROA for dynamic models described using Hillcube continuous Boolean approximations.

BMC SYSTEMS BIOLOGY, 6.
MeSH headings : Models, Biological; Research Design; Uncertainty
TL;DR:
A bounded-error experimental design framework for nonlinear continuous-time systems when few data measurements are available that is able to identify candidate measurement time points that maximize information corresponding to biologically relevant metrics and determine the number at which additional measurements begin to provide insignificant information.

Recent Genotypes of Phytophthora infestans in the Eastern United States Reveal Clonal Populations and Reappearance of Mefenoxam Sensitivity
PLANT DISEASE, 96(9), 1323–1330.
Contributors: C. Hu n, F. Perez*, R. Donahoo*, A. McLeod *, K. Myers*, K. Ivors n, G. Secor*, P. Roberts

Whereas most individuals of US-8 and US-20 were resistant to mefenoxam, US-21 appeared to be intermediately sensitive, and isolates ofUS-22, US,23, andUS-24 were largely sensitive to me Fenoxam; these latter three genotypes appear to have been derived from a common ancestor.
