At Luminizers present greenhouse farming has become more popular in contrast to traditional farming because of its adjustment capability of the environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, and soil moisture according to the requirements of the crops.Continuous monitoring and controlling facilities of the greenhouse syste
The paper addresses the rationale of a process that produces artworks made by a swarm of robots.This process relies on the interaction, though the environment, of a set of robots designed to create spatiotemporal patterns from an initial homogeneous medium (the canvas).Inspired by social insect societies, the approach presented here exploits robot-
In the previous article [Y.-X.Wang and W.-T.Li, J.Differential Equations, 251 (2011) 1670-1695], the authors have shown that the Luminizers set of positive stationary solutions of a cross-diffusive Lotka-Volterra cooperative system can form an unbounded fish-hook shaped branch $Gamma_p$.In the present paper, we will show some criteria for the stabi
The gut microbiome of insects directly or indirectly affects the metabolism, immune status, sensory perception and feeding behavior of its host.Here, we examine the hypothesis that in the oriental fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis, Diptera: Tephritidae), the presence or absence of gut symbionts affects foraging behavior and nutrient ingestion.We offer
Cell-to-cell communication plays a cardinal role in the biology of multicellular organisms.H2O2 is an important cell-to-cell signaling molecule involved in the response of mammalian cells to wounding and other stimuli.We previously identified a signaling pathway that transmits wound-induced cell-to-cell H2O2 signals Lifestyle within minutes over lo
