Abstract:
Field observations and a grower survey during 2002/2003 indicated that grass grub larvae might be responsible for the death of young grape vines In November 2003 a pot trial was established to determine whether grass grab larvae feeding caused sufficient root damage to account for observed vine deaths The experiments also evaluated whether arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonisation of grape vine roots was affected by grass grub feeding Grass grub damage was found on the belowground portion of the trunk and was proportional to the numbers of grubs present However root and shoot weight and

The New Zealand grass grub (Costelytra zealandica) is distributed throughout the South Island but surprisingly has not been recorded west of Reefton In 2006 pasture damage from rootfeeding scarab larvae on the West Coast initially attributed to grass grub was found to be caused by manuka beetles Pyronota spp Winter surveys during 20082012 between Karamea and Hokitika confirmed that most damage patches were caused by manuka beetle larvae but there was a small localised population of C zealandica associated with Westport airport and golf course In 2012 a network of phenolbaited pheromone traps w

Field experiments were conducted in 1982, 1983, and 1984 to evaluate the efficacy of several insecticides for controlling white grubs infesting Fraser fir, Abies fraseri (Pursh) Poir., Christmas trees and pastureland scheduled for fir plantings, and to evaluate insecticide phytotoxicity. The white grub complex consisted primarily of three species: Pyllophaga anxia (LeConte) Glasgow, P. fusca (Froelich) Glasgow, and Polyphylla comes Casey. Mean pretreatment white grub population densities ranged from 20.8 to 77.8 grubs per m2. Isazophos, diazinon, carbofuran, carbaryl, trichlorfon, chlorpyrifos

Abstract:
Serratia entomophila, the causative agent of amber disease, is an endemic bacterium used for the biocontrol of New Zealand grass grub larvae. Although the available biopesticide is effective, its use is limited to areas where sub-surface application is feasible, and is also impacted by soil conditions such as moisture levels and osmolarity. The aim of this study was to elucidate the responses of S. entomophila to osmotic and desiccation stresses in relation to challenges encountered during production, storage and soil application, with the goal of developing a more robust and versatile biocont

Abstract:
Amber disease caused by Serratia entomophila to larvae of Costelytra zealandica (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae), is characterized by the production of two symptoms: anti-feeding effect (AFE) and amber coloration (AC). This study was aimed to identify and characterize the virulence factors involved in the disease. Three factors were identified: i) MRE-HA fimbriae; ii) an extracellular protease and, iii) an anti-feeding toxin. i) Fimbriae type 1, 3 and MRE-HA were identified and characterized in S. entomophila by haemagglutination tests and electron microscopy.

Abstract:
This article examines Chinese manual motor metaphors involving manual object manipulation as the source domain. Specifically, we use corpus data to investigate two transitive constructions [抓紧zhuājĭn ‘grab tightly, clutch’ NP] and [把住 băzhù ‘grasp firmly’ NP] and a causative construction [把bă NP捧pĕng COMPL] ‘lift NP with deliberation’ where the referent of the NP does not lend itself to manual manipulation in the literal sense and must be interpreted as metaphoric in the unity of semantic domains. Results from both quantitative and qualitative analyses show that the two transitive grasping actions are systematically used to abstract actions requiring a keen sense of urgency and/or importance and that the causative action of lifting systematically conceptualizes over-promotion of an undeserving entity. The findings point to the bodily origin of social cognition and the embodiment of conceptualization.

Abstract:
As the discoveries from neuroscience pour in, the newspaper headlines capture our imagination. They announce that “Musicians’ Brains Really Work Differently” and promise to tell us “How Learning a New Language Actually Rewires the Brain.” What is this hype all about? Do you really need a brain scan to tell that a musician’s brain is different than a nonmusician’s? Cann’t you hear the difference right from the first sound? And don’t we all know that learning a language happens “up north”? It is not the science or technology that attracts our attention, nor is it their aesthetics. Images of genes, proteins, and viruses have no less scientific significance and visual appeal, but they don’t mesmerize us in the same way. Yet we incorrectly believe that evidence from neuroscience is stronger than the results from cognitive experiments. In fact, people fall for “brain stories” even when these accounts are clearly fallacious. Why do we blindly follow the brain? This chapter traces the allure of neuroscience to Dualism. The Dualist view condemns us to an eternal state of wonder because we fail to grasp how “thinking” (e.g., of a cup) can command changes in our material body (e.g., I move my hand to grab it)—how the immaterial mind can effect change in matter. Brain scans alleviate the dissonance by presenting us with tangible proof that thinking is material. The mind–body dissonance that plagues our reasoning about our healthy selves also derails our reasoning about a number of psychiatric conditions, discussed in the next chapters.
