Egg Parasitoids of Hemipteran Insects: A Special Account on Scelionidae (Platygastroidea: Hymenoptera)

K. R. Mahendra, M. Chaitanya, R. Karthik, K. S. Ishwarya Lakshmi, B. N. Balaji & Godavari · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2024

Parasitoids are considered as one of the key biotic factors regulating the population dynamics of other insects in the natural settings. Egg parasitoids have been used successfully for many decades as inundative and augmentative biological control agents against a wide range of e...

Advanced Methods for Constructing UE(\(S^2 )\) Optimal Supersaturated Designs in Factor Screening Experiments

B. Manjunatha, Manju Prem S., Gunashekhar H., Karthik R., K. R. Mahendra, N. R. Kiran, Damodhara G. N. & Karthik V.C. · Journal of Scientific Research and Reports · 2024

Supersaturated designs (SSDs) are crucial in factor screening experiments, especially when factor sparsity is assumed, meaning only a few factors are expected to be significant. Building on the foundational work of Jones and Majumdar [1], who introduced the UE(\(S^2 )\)  criterio...
