Field assessments were conducted to examine the interplay between host plant and predation in complex agricultural mosaic on pea aphid clover and alfalfa races.In one experiment, we examined the relative fitness on clover race (CR) and alfalfa race (AR) pea aphids on broad bean, red clover and alfalfa alone.But because clover is typically grown in
Wireless devices consume large amounts of energy during wireless communication.As the energy storage of battery is limited, improving energy efficiency has become an important approach to prolong the lifetime Bell of devices.The IEEE 802.11 protocol supports the power save mode (PSM) in wireless local area networks (WLANs).However, the standard PSM
