Perilla frutescens (L.) Britton (Lamiales: Lamiaceae) cultivation repels red imported fire ant Solenopsis invicta Buren (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) through volatile organic compounds

The red imported fire ant (RIFA, Solenopsis invicta Buren) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) is a highly destructive invasive pest that threatens agriculture, biodiversity, human health, and infrastructure worldwide. Current management heavily relies on synthetic chemical insecticides, b...

Electropulsing-driven rapid reversible phase transformations in Al-Mg-Si-Cu alloys

The electrical free-energy term, ΔGe, has been widely used to rationalize electropulsing-driven ultrafast precipitation and homogenization in age-hardenable alloys. However, its quantitative contribution relative to enhanced kinetics to phase transformation remains unclear. Here,...
