Authors: Mamcasz-Viginheski Lúcia Virginia , Shimazaki Elsa Midori , Silva Sani de Carvalho Rutz da , Pacheco Edilson Roberto
Published: December 2017

Resumo: Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo buscar uma alternativa para desenvolver conceitos matemáticos com uma estudante cega total, os quais tenham sentido e contribuam para a sua aprendizagem e o seu desenvolvimento. A pesquisa apresenta uma abordagem qualitativa, sendo utilizado o estudo de caso como estratégia. Ela foi realizada em uma instituição não governamental que oferece atendimento especializado na área da deficiência visual, no município de Guarapuava, interior do Estado do Paraná. Fundamentados na teoria histórico-cultural de Vygotsky, procedemos a uma intervenção pedagógica para que a estudante elaborasse conceitos de Geometria e Álgebra. Os resultados mostraram que a estudante consolidou conceitos em fase de maturação, produzindo novos conceitos a partir deles. Também foi possível perceber que, independentemente das limitações, estudantes com deficiência visual são capazes de elaborar conceitos necessários para a autonomia e a participação social.

Resumo Este artigo explora o caso envolvendo Roger Abdelmassih em sua divulgação na mídia, buscando entender as construções simbólicas em jogo no período entre 2009, quando as denúncias contra o médico são divulgadas na Folha de São Paulo, e 2016. A exposição pública da denúncia e seu desdobramento jurídico-policial na mídia comercial promoveram uma leitura social do caso, produzindo uma narrativa moral acerca do tipo de violência, do agressor e de suas vítimas.
Tempo de Graduação em Medicina: uma Estimativa em 15 Coortes de Graduados na Universidade Agostinho Neto, Angola
Authors: Magalhães Pedro , Gomes Guilherme Bugalho , Nicolau Santos Morais
Published: December 2017

RESUMO O tempo de conclusão do curso de graduação em Medicina está bem estabelecido nos programas de formação das escolas médicas em todo o mundo. Entretanto, nem todos os estudantes concluem o curso no tempo esperado, o que pode resultar numa baixa taxa de graduação. Contudo, uma análise isolada da taxa de graduação não permite prever com precisão a magnitude de custos de formação se não levar em conta o tempo médio de conclusão da formação, particularmente para a Medicina, que exige avultados recursos e cujo tempo de formação é o mais longo. O objetivo do estudo foi determinar o tempo médio de permanência no curso, assim como a proporção de estudantes que se gradua no tempo esperado de conclusão do curso. Foi feita uma análise retrospectiva dos dados de 15 coortes de estudantes graduados pela Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade Agostinho Neto (FMUAN), em Angola, no período de 2001 a 2015. Os dados foram recolhidos do arquivo acadêmico da FMUAN. Do total de 1.259 graduados, 59,7% eram mulheres, e a média de idade na conclusão do curso foi de 35 ± 7 anos. A taxa média de admissão ao curso foi de 6,8%, e foram graduados, em média, 88 médicos por ano, sendo 36 homens e 52 mulheres. A taxa de graduação foi de 82,2%, sendo que os estudantes demoraram, em média,dez anos para concluir o curso, e apenas 24,2% concluíram o curso no tempo esperado de seis anos. Os resultados sugerem que, apesar de ter havido uma elevada taxa de graduação, poucos concluem o curso no tempo regulamentar, realçando a importância de identificar as causas da estadia prolongada de estudantes no curso, o que pode ter implicação na gestão acadêmica e na planificação de recursos humanos de saúde. A taxa de graduados no tempo ideal, combinada com a taxa de graduação, pode ser um indicador de eficiência e um instrumento de apoio na gestão do sistema de educação médica.

Privacidade e confidencialidade de usuários em um hospital geral
Authors: Silva Junior Danyllo do Nascimento , Araújo Janieiry Lima de , Silva Rafael Tavares Silveira , Nascimento Ellany Gurgel Cosme do
Published: December 2017

Resumo No ambiente hospitalar, privacidade e confidencialidade dos usuários são frequentemente desrespeitadas. Esta pesquisa, exploratória e qualitativa, realizada em hospital geral localizado em Pau dos Ferros, Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil, objetivou analisar a percepção de usuários sobre aspectos relacionados a sua privacidade e confidencialidade durante a internação. Utilizou-se para a coleta de dados a técnica da entrevista semiestruturada com análise de conteúdo. Após análise dos dados, foram criadas duas categorias: privacidade dos usuários hospitalizados e confidencialidade dos dados dos usuários hospitalizados. Os resultados demonstraram que os entrevistados têm entendimento ambíguo e limitado sobre privacidade e confidencialidade. Por não saberem que têm esses direitos não associaram situações invasivas durante a internação ao desrespeito. Além disso, os participantes manifestaram em suas falas passividade e aceitação diante dos cuidados recebidos. Logo, espera-se que os resultados deste estudo possam estimular discussões sobre os aspectos éticos estudados e aperfeiçoar os cuidados em saúde.

Abstract: The objective of this work was to identify and carry out a field testing of the sex pheromone composition of the mahogany shoot borer, Hypsipyla grandella, from a population in Southern Brazil. Abdominal glands of H. grandella females were excised and extracted using n-hexane; the gland extracts were analysed by gas chromatography (GC-FID and GC-MS). Wind-tunnel and electrophysiology experiments were conducted to evaluate the role of gland compounds in the mating behavior of H. grandella males. In the field, pheromone traps containing the identified pheromone were tested. In addition to the two previously identified compounds - (9Z,12E)-tetradecadien-1-ol and (9Z,12E)-tetradecadienyl acetate -, in insects from Central America populations, two additional compounds were identified in the blend: (9Z)-tetradecen-1-ol and (9Z)-tetradecenyl acetate. Gas chromatography-electroantennographic analyses showed that these four components elicited antennal responses from conspecific males. Wind tunnel bioassays using different amounts of the components Z9-14:OH, Z9,E12-14:OH, Z9-14:OAc, and Z9,E12-14:OAc, elicited male responses similar to the response to conspecific calling females. When the binary and quaternary mixtures were tested in field conditions, males were attracted to the traps containing the quaternary mixture. The new pheromone blend identified in H. grandella males has a great potential to be exploited as a monitoring tool or control measure in the field.

Published: December 2017

Resumo A redução do consumo de cimento na composição de argamassas de revestimento é uma alternativa para a diminuição do impacto ambiental provocado na cadeia de produção do ligante. A utilização de materiais cimentícios suplementares (supplementary cementitious materials - SCM) e a dosagem com base nos conceitos de empacotamento e mobilidade de partículas são estratégias que podem resultar nas propriedades projetadas tanto no estado fresco quanto endurecido. O objetivo deste trabalho foi ilustrar a influência da alteração no consumo de ligante nas propriedades no estado fresco e endurecido de argamassas de revestimento mantendo-se constante a distribuição de tamanho de partículas, o que resultou em porosidade de empacotamento com insignificante variação. O consumo de cimento variou de 8% a 16% em massa, com adição de filler calcário como SCM, sendo que a consistência foi a mesma devido à alteração dos teores de água nas argamassas. Os resultados indicaram que a redução no consumo de cimento afeta negativamente as propriedades no estado endurecido, mas ainda assim atendem às exigências estabelecidas para esse tipo de revestimento.

Published: December 2017

ABSTRACT Objective: To report a new technique for extrapleural interbody release with transcorporal osteotomy of the inferior vertebral plateau (LIEPO) and to evaluate the correction potential of this technique and its complications. Method: We included patients with scoliosis with Cobb angle greater than 90° and flexibility less than 25% submitted to surgical treatment between 2012 and 2016 by the technique LIEPO at the National Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics (INTO). Sagittal and coronal alignment, and the translation of the apical vertebra were measured and the degree of correction of the deformity was calculated through the pre and postoperative radiographs, and the complications were described. Results: Patients had an average bleed of 1,525 ml, 8.8 hours of surgical time, 123° of scoliosis in the preoperative period, and a mean correction of 66%. There was no case of permanent neurological damage and no surgical revision. Conclusion: The LIEPO technique proved to be effective and safe in the treatment of severe stiff scoliosis, reaching a correction potential close to the PEISR (Posterior extrapleural intervertebral space release) technique and superior to that of the pVCR (posterior Vertebral Column Resection) with no presence of infection and permanent neurological deficit. New studies are needed to validate this promising technique.

Impacts of El Niño 2015 and the Indian Ocean Dipole 2016 on Rainfall in the Pameungpeuk and Cilacap Regions
Authors: Martono Martono , Wardoyo Teguh
Published: December 2017

El Niño and the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) are oceanographic phenomena which occur in the tropical Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean due to air–sea interactions. These phenomena affect climate variability both regionally and globally. This study was conducted to understand the impacts of El Niño 2015 and IOD 2016 events on rainfall in the Pameungpeuk and Cilacap regions. The data used consists of the NIÑO3.4 index, IOD index, daily rainfall from 1987–2016, daily sea surface temperature from 1987–2016, daily sea surface height from 1994–2016 and pentad sea surface current from 2007–2016. The method used in this research was a descriptive analysis. The results have shown that rainfall in Pameungpeuk and Cilacap was influenced by El Niño 2015 and negative IOD 2016. During El Niño 2015 a decrease in rainfall occurred, whereas during negative IOD 2016 rainfall increased. Rainfall anomalies in the east season and the second transition season during El Niño 2015 in Pameungpeuk reached −107 mm and −374 mm; meanwhile in Cilacap rainfall anomalies reached −111 mm and −218 mm. Conversely, rainfall anomalies during negative IOD 2016 reached 109 mm and 360 mm in Pameungpeuk, and in Cilacap reached 293 mm and 365 mm. Changes in rainfall in Pameungpeuk and Cilacap during El Niño 2015 and negative IOD 2016 events were closely related to the weakening and strengthening of convections in the southern waters of Java.

Preparation of a Cationic Environment-friendly Fixing Agent
Authors: Liu Yuanjun , Zhao Xiaoming
Published: December 2017

Initially waste feather protein was used to prepare a reactive cationic crosslinking modified agent, WLS, as a starting material which was used to prepare a quaternary ammonium type cationic environment-friendly fixing agent (named WLSPR) for dyeing cotton fabric with reactive dyes after solid colour processing. In this paper, the degree of staining on white cloth from colored cloth after a soaping process was assessed (by determination of the K/S value) as well as the washing fastness etc. as the evaluation indices. The optimum synthetic conditions of fixing agent WLSPR were determined, and the structure and properties of the additives characterised. The results show that the maximum absorption wavelength of the cationic protein fixing agent WLSPR is 195nm. Synthesis of the environment-friendly fixing agent WLSPR using optimum conditions can reduce white staining during soap washing , effectively improving the cotton fabric in terms of colour fastness to washing and rubbing fastness. Based on infrared spectral characterisation, it was confirmed that the protein-based cationic auxiliary additives were synthesised.
De danske kvantumsgenitivers syntaks og semantik
Authors: Jensen Per Anker
Published: December 2017

Kvantumsgenitiver er et sparsomt belyst emne og har gennem mange år stået helt i skyggen af diskussionen om bestemmergenitiverne. Denne artikel præsenterer en integreret syntaktisk og semantisk teori om kvantumsgenitiver som en to meters fiskestang og en tre retters menu. De vigtigste tidligere analyser gennemgås, særligt Kristian Mikkelsens i Dansk ordföjningslære og Hansen & Heltofts i Grammatik over det danske sprog (GDS). Artiklen underbygger syntaktisk og semantisk Mikkelsens begrebsanalyse af disse genitiver, mens det påvises at analysen i GDS er tvivlsom både semantisk og topologisk. Jeg viser at kvantumsgenitiver er distributionelt ækvivalente med attributive adjektivfraser og omfatter to undertyper, ”målsgenitiver” og ”konstitutivgenitiver”. Syntaktisk er disse genitivtyper helt ens og følges begge af ubestemt form af evt. attributive adjektiver (i modsætning til bestemmergenitiver, der kræver bestemt form af adjektivet). Men de adskiller sig semantisk. Mens målsgenitiverne semantisk set kun er målsangivelser, denoterer konstitutivgenitiverne derudover en meronymisk relation mellem de to nominaler i konstruktionen. I kraft af meronymien er konstitutivgenitiverne semantisk i berøring med bestemmergenitiverne, men mens sidstnævnte har helheds-termen som en del af genitiven, har konstitutivgenitiverne del-termen indlejret i genitiven. Den teoretiske ramme for de syntaktiske og semantiske analyser er formel og inddrager generativ leksikonteori i analysen af de danske substantivers semantiske komposition. Fremstillingen er uformel, men de vigtigste syntaktiske og semantiske repræsentationer er medtaget med udførlig forklaring.
On‐Line Control of Glucose Concentration in High‐Yielding Mammalian Cell Cultures Enabled Through Oxygen Transfer Rate Measurements
Authors: Goldrick Stephen , Lee Kenneth , Spencer Christopher , Holmes William , Kuiper Marcel , Turner Richard , Farid Suzanne S.
Published: December 2017

Glucose control is vital to ensure consistent growth and protein production in mammalian cell cultures. The typical fed‐batch glucose control strategy involving bolus glucose additions based on infrequent off‐line daily samples results in cells experiencing significant glucose concentration fluctuations that can influence product quality and growth. This study proposes an on‐line method to control and manipulate glucose utilizing readily available process measurements. The method generates a correlation between the cumulative oxygen transfer rate and the cumulative glucose consumed. This correlation generates an on‐line prediction of glucose that has been successfully incorporated into a control algorithm manipulating the glucose feed‐rate. This advanced process control (APC) strategy enables the glucose concentration to be maintained at an adjustable set‐point and has been found to significantly reduce the deviation in glucose concentration in comparison to conventional operation. This method has been validated to produce various therapeutic proteins across cell lines with different glucose consumption demands and is successfully demonstrated on micro (15 mL), laboratory (7 L), and pilot (50 L) scale systems. This novel APC strategy is simple to implement and offers the potential to significantly enhance the glucose control strategy for scales spanning micro‐scale systems through to full scale industrial bioreactors.

Published: December 2017

Seedlings were transplanted in a sandy loam type soil on 14, 15 Jun at the University of California’s South Coast Field Station in Santa Ana, California. Experimental plots were 4 rows wide (5-ft centers) by 35 ft long and separated by a 5-ft buffer. The tomato transplants were sprinkle irrigated for 1 week, and drip irrigated thereafter (water pH 7.2-7.5). Treatments were replicated 4 times in a randomized complete block design. Weekly applications were initiated at first fruiting. Application dates were 27 Jul, 3, 10, 19, 26 Aug and 2, 9 Sep and 1 Oct. A tractor-mounted boom sprayer with 6 nozzles per row incorporated D-3 orifice disks. #25 cores, and 50 mesh screens. Operating pressure was 100 psi delivering 100 gal/acre. Spreader sticker (Leaf Act 80) was included for all treatments at 0.04%. Except for the two Rohm Haas treatments, which used Latron at .06%. Leafminer populations were evaluated by weekly counts of leafminer prepupae and pupae in four 9 by 11 inch trays/replicate from 2 Aug through 8 Sep, inclusive. On 13-14 Sep, 200 mature-green to ripe fruit were harvested from the center 2 rows of each replicate (800 per treatment) and examined for internal damage (primarily H. zea) and external damage (primarily S. exigua and K. lycopersicon).

Published: December 2017

A cornfield near Sinai, in east-central SD was chosen for this study. The experiment was conducted to compare the efficacy of insecticide applications using modified ground-driven Noble metering units with the electronic smartbox metering unit on a specially-adapted Kinze 4-row corn planter using 2 insecticide placement methods (band and in-furrow) for control of NCR and WCR larvae. The study was a RCBD containing 4 replications. Individual treatment plots were single 15.25 m long rows spaced 96.5 cm apart. Noble and smartbox metering units were calibrated on the planter prior to insecticide applications. Banded treatments were applied in an 18-cm swath in front of the furrow-closing wheels, and incorporated by the wheels and drag chains. In-furrow applications consisted of directing granules immediately between double disk furrow openers. Corn was seeded at 23,000 kernels per acre at all locations. Five roots per replicate were dug for each treatment. Roots were then washed, examined for feeding damage, and rated using the Iowa I to 6 scale.

Published: December 2017

This study was conducted at the University of Minnesota agricultural experiment station at Rosemount in sugarbeets planted 14 May. Treatments were replicated 4 times and arranged in RCBD. Each replicate consisted of 3 treated rows on 30 inch centers measuring 70 ft in length. Treatments were separated by a single untreated row. Granular treatments were applied using a single row Noble applicator delivering a 6-inch band to either side of the base of the plant. Liquid treatments were applied using a single nozzle CO2 backpack sprayer with a flat-fan nozzle delivering 27 gpa in a directed band to the base of the plant, with both sides being treated. Four “pre-infest” treatments were applied 29 Jun, prior to artificial infestation, including Counter 15G, Counter 20CR, AC513858 20G, Knox-Out (2340). The remaining treatments were applied 14 Jul. Plots were infested 7, 21 Jul, 10 and 24 Aug. Plots were infested by placing 8-12 SRA adults and 100-200 nymphs at the base of a single plant in the center row of each treatment, with 1 location for the Jul infestations and 1 location for the Aug infestations, separated by 20 ft. Treatments were harvested 21 Sep and evaluated for percent of beets infested and level of infestation using the following SRA Root Rating Index (0-5): 0 = no aphids nor wax present; 1 = 1 colony, wax (or both) <2.5 cm diam; 2 = 2 or more colonies, wax (or both) <2.5 cm diam each, covering less than 50% of root surface; 3 = 1 or more colonies, wax (or both) >2.5 cm diam each, covering <50% of root surface; 4 = multiple colonies, wax (or both) covering 50 to 95% of root surface; 5 = multiple colonies, wax (or both) covering >95% of root surface. Samples were evaluated for percent sugar and impurities at the Southern Minnesota Sugar Cooperative tare laboratory in Renville, MN.

Efficacy data for control of a subsequent JB and NMC larval population (appx 70% JB: 30% NMC) taken 5 & 7 Oct was based on the number of live grubs in 6, 7 × 7 in samples from each plot.
Black Cutworm Control on Golf Course Greens with Bacillus Thuringiensis and Fenoxycarb, 1993
Authors: Weaver Joseph E.
Published: December 2017

Treatments were duplicated on greens at two golf courses. Plots were arranged in a RCB design, replicated 4 times. Plot size was 8 × 8 ft. Liquids were applied in 2 liters of water with a sprinkler can. Trial 1 (Buckhannon C.C.) was initiated 20 Aug. Plots were not pre-irrigated because the green was wet from overnight rain and treatments were applied during a light rain; about 0.02 inches of rain occurred shortly after all treatments were applied and there was no posttreatment irrigation. Environmental conditions were: air temperature, 23°C; RH, 97%; overcast with light rain; soil temperatures, 23°C (1 inch), 25°C (surface). Treatments were evaluated at 6 DAT by treating the entire green with cyftuthrin (Tempo) at 0.04 lb (AI)/acre and counting the no. of larvae flushed to the surface after about 1 h. Larvae were mostly small to medium in size ranging from 5 to 36 mm in length with 92% being less than 20 mm long. Trial 2 (Clarksburg C.C.) was initiated 23 Aug. Plots were pre-irrigated with 2 liters of water per plot, treatments were applied, then irrigated with 2 liters about 40 minutes posttreatment. Environmental conditions were: air temperature, 26.5°C; RH, 57%; clear and calm; soil temperature, 23.5°C (1 inch), 28°C (surface). Treatments were evaluated at 7 DAT using the same method as in Trail 1. Larvae were mostly small to medium in size ranging from 5 to 43 mm in length with 72% being less than 20 mm long.

Published: December 2017

On 3 Sep, greenhouse grown plants were transplanted into a Bernow series sand loam soil at the Wes Watkins AREC in Lane, OK. Plots measuring one row wide by 9 m long were arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Rows were spaced 0.9 m apart with plants spaced 30 cm apart within rows. Unplanted areas measuring 3 m within rows and 0.9 m between rows served as spray buffers. Conventional cultural practices were used throughout the trial. Counts of CL eggs, small CL larvae (instar 1 & 2) and large CL larvae (instar 3 & 4) were made on 4, 8, 11, 14, 18, 25, 27 Oct and 1 Nov. Insecticides were applied using a CO2- powered backpack sprayer calibrated at 105 liters per acre. The spray boom was equipped with two hollow cone (TX-26) nozzles spaced 46 cm apart and directed toward the base of the plants. Treatments were applied on 4, 11, 18 and 25 Oct. On 22 Nov, 15 leaves per plot were selected from three plants and evaluated for damage caused by Lepidopterous larvae. Leaves were selected in a stratified random manner by choosing leaves of similar size from leaf positions 3-8 (1 = oldest). On each leaf, the number of feeding holes were counted and grouped according to diameter, with small 1 cm or less and large >1 cm.

Six raised beds on 6 ft centers prepared on 17 Aug included a fertilizer bottom mix of 1000 lbs/acre of 5-16-8 and 800 lbs/acre of 19-0-19 placed in a central band at bedding. Beds were fumigated with 220 lbs/acre of methyl bromide injected every 5 inches across the bed width and sealed immediately with white-faced, black polyethylene. On 5 Oct, two seeds per hole of the cultivar ‘Florida Staysweet’ were planted in two rows 10 inches apart in the center of each bed and later thinned to one plant per space. Manzate 200 was applied weekly with a plot sprayer at 100 psi to prevent leaf blight and rust. Each of two sets of 3, 240 ft rows was divided into two blocks, 50 ft long, with 100 row ft between blocks. Each row was randomly assigned one of 2 treatments or a control water-treatment in a RCB design. Spray applications were made weekly over 8 weeks beginning 30 Oct using a CO2 pressurized backpack sprayer manufactured by Weed Systems, Inc., Gainesville FL. At an operating pressure of 40 psi, the first 5 applications were calibrated at a rate of 30 gpa and the last 3 at 45 gpa. The surfactant, APSA-80 (80% Alkyl Aryl Alkoxylate) was added at the rate of 0.3% to the Larvin application. Armyworm counts and damage ratings were made one day prior to the first treatment and weekly thereafter by examining the whorl and the next 2 adjacent leaves before tasseling and all ears thereafter. The following numerical ranking system was used for damage ratings: 0: no damage, 1: windowing to 10%, 2: 11-30%, 3: 31-40%, 4: 41-50%, and 5: greater than 50%. Larvae observed during field evaluations were recorded. Plots were harvested on 21 Dec and 7 Jan. All the mature ears were collected and counted and weighed. The number of damaged ears was noted and ears weighed.

Published: December 2017

This experiment was located in Prattsburg, New York, on Franjo Farms and was designed to compare labeled compounds. Treatments, replicated four times, were planted on 3 May and consisted of two rows (20 ft long) with a 5 ft buffer separating replications. Two unsprayed buffer rows were located between treatments. The plot was completely randomized. Sprays were applied using a CO2 backpack sprayer equipped with 4 nozzles delivering 100 gal water/acre. A sticker (Bond) and a wetter (Silwet) were applied with all treatments at the rate of 8 ft oz/100 gal. Thrips counts were made on 10 plants/treatment/replication by direct field observation using a 10X head visor. This test was designed to determine if a weekly spray schedule of labeled compounds had any effect on yields when compared to a treatment threshold spray program of 3 thrips/leaf. Applications were initiated on 25 Aug. Only two weekly sprays and one threshold spray were applied since thrips populations did not begin to increase until late season.

Published: December 2017

Seedlings of “Jupiter” bell peppers were transplanted on 1 Oct, 12 inches apart in single rows on raised beds covered with whitefaced polyethylene mulch and sub-surface irrigated. Beds had been prepared by fumigation with chloropicrin methyl bromide 33/67% 220 lbs/acre and fertilized with a bottom mix of 800 lbs/acre of 5-16-8 and a top mix of 1000 lbs/acre of 19-0-30. The plants were sprayed weekly with a fungicide mix of 3.0 lbs Kocide DF and 1.0 lb/acre Maneb 80 W/acre. Four 240-foot rows on 12 foot centers were used, each divided into 7 plots 33 feet long with 18 inches between plots. Six treatments and an unsprayed check were randomly assigned to each row giving 4 replications. Treatments were applied weekly starting 22 Oct following verification of pest infestation. An adjuvant, ASPA 80®, was added to each spray tank at the rate of 3 oz/100 gallon of mix. Applications were made using a 12 tank sprayer mounted on a small trailer and drawn by a 4-wheel drive Suzuki ATV equipped with a diaphragm pump operating at 80 lb/in2 powered by a gasoline engine. Spray was delivered through a single row boom utilizing 3 drops, two on the side carrying 1 or 2 Albuz ATR® “red” ceramic tipped nozzles each depending on plant size and one in the middle carrying a single nozzle for a maximum delivery rate of 35 gpa. Weekly sampling began 21 Oct (pre-treatment) and was initiated from a random start 3-5 plants from the end and continued with every other plant until 8 were sampled. Number and size of the larvae were noted and percent leaf damage to 3 leaf-size categories was estimated. Plants for harvest were selected as above and fruit of marketable size and age was harvested on 16 Dec and again on 23 Dec from the same plants. Number and weight in pounds of marketable peppers were recorded for each plot. Number and weights of culls were recorded in two separate categories: insect damaged and not insect damaged. A small number of culls from pepper weevil damage, noted during the 23 Dec harvest, was included in the general insect-damage category. Data on total numbers of beet armyworm, southern armyworm and leaf damage were subjected to an analysis of variance followed by Duncan’s multiple range test in the event of a significant F value.

Published: December 2017

This study was conducted in a furrow-irrigated corn field at the Southwest Research-Extension Center, Finney County, KS. Treatments were arranged in a RCBD with 4 replications. Plots were 4 rows, (10 ft) wide and 50 ft long, with a 4 row border of untreated corn on each side and a 10 ft alley at each end. The single application was made on 28 or 29 Jul, while the double corn borer treatments were made on 22 Jul and 1 Aug. The simulated chemigation applications of insecticides were made using 3 Delavan 100/140, % inch raindrop nozzles mounted on a high clearance sprayer at tassel height between rows. This system was calibrated to deliver the equivalent of 0.21 in irrigation on the 2 center rows (5730 gal/acre). The standard insecticide treatments were applied with a high clearance sprayer using a 10 ft boom with 3 nozzles directed at each row (1 nozzle directed at the top and one on each side of the row on 16-inch drop hoses directed towards the ear zone). The sprayer was calibrated to deliver 20 gal/acre at 2 mph and 40 psi. The granular applications were made with electric Gandy® boxes mounted on the high-clearance sprayer using a 7 inch bander directed over each row. Corn borer control was evaluated by dissecting 15 plants per plot between 23 and 30 Sep to determine the number of corn borer larvae and length of tunneling per plant. Grain yield was determined by machine harvesting the two center rows in each plot and correcting to 15.5% moisture.
