Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Pest Science"
DOI: 10.1007/s10340-018-0975-z
Abstract: To identify cost-effective ways to control invasive species, we need to evaluate alternative methods. The invasion of tropical Australia by cane toads (Rhinella marina) has killed many native predators, prompting efforts to cull adult toads.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiochem.2020.08.002
Abstract: INTRODUCTION There is an emerging realisation that paediatric reference intervals (RIs) estimated using discrete age-groups may be misleading, especially close to age cut-off values. This limitation has been addressed by estimating RIs that vary continuously… read more here.
