Contrasting effects of necrotrophic and biotrophic plant pathogens on the aphid Aphis fabae by Al-Naemi, F.

“…Rust infection increased leaf total nitrogen concentration by 30%, whereas infection by botrytis with or without rust led to a 38% decrease. The aphids' responses to the two plant pathogens individually is consistent with the alteration in plant nutrient content by infection and also the induction of different plant defence pathways and the possible cross-talk between them. …”

Enhancing the UV/heat stability of LLDPE irrigation pipes via different stabilizer formulations by Porfyris, Athanasios D.

“…Mechanical properties, thermal analysis, and carbonyl index results supported the morphological results, which confirmed that CB alone was slightly more effective in protecting the LLDPE against UV initiated degradation, but performed worse against thermal initiated degradation. UV1 and UV2 compounds were efficient against both UV- and heat-initiated degradation, with UV1 performing better for unpigmented compounds, and UV2 for the pigmented ones.…”
