Thermal and hormonal regulation of the dormancy-germination transition in Amaranthus tuberculatus seeds
Weed Research, 47(4), 335–344.
author keywords: ABA; abscisic acid; alternation; chilling; dormancy; GA; germination; gibberellin; gibberellic acid; hormone; seed; stratification; temperature
TL;DR:
A seed dormancy–germination transition model is proposed in which the dormancy of A. tuberculatus seeds is progressively reduced from a high to a low level; but environmental conditions (i.e. stratification) can accelerate the dormancies alleviation process.

Spectral response of cotton aphid- (Homoptera: Aphididae) and spider mite- (Acari: Tetranychidae) infested cotton: controlled studies
Environ. Entomol, 36, 1466–1474.
author keywords: arthropod damage; remote sensing; spectrometer; integrated pest management; near-infrared
TL;DR:
It was shown that it was possible to detect cotton aphid– and spider mite–damaged leaves by tracking the spectral changes in the leaf, although the damage type of each arthropod could not be distinguished spectrally.

Insect-repelling behaviour in bovids: role of mass, tail length, and group size
Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 91(3), 383–392.
author keywords: biting insects; body size; Diptera; peripheral stimulation; stimulus-driven
TL;DR:
Investigating whether the 'peripheral stimulation model' can explain the regulation of this widespread behaviour pattern in a comparative study of bovids found rates of tail-switching and all insect-repelling behaviours combined were positive associated with body mass, whereas ear- flicking was positively associated with proportional tail length.
