A COMPARISON OF THE VERTICAL TRANSMISSION OF HIGH- AND LOW-VIRULENCE NUCLEOPOLYHEDROVIRUS STRAINS IN LYMANTRIA DISPAR L.

A Comparison of the Vertical Transmission of High- and Low-Virulence Nucleopolyhedrovirus Strains in Lymantria Dispar L.

Baculoviruses can persist in insect host organisms after infection and may be vertically transmitted to the next generation, in which they may be reactivated.The goal of the present study was to compare the CO2 offset efficiency of the vertical transmission of high- and low-virulence strains and the subsequent reactivation of Lymantria dispar multi

A multi-hop free space optical link based on a regenerative relay

A multi-hop free space optical link based on all-optical relays is presented.All-optical relays are either composed of simple optical amplifiers or optical regenerators.It has been shown that after a certain number of hops, the amplifier based relay cannot extend the range of the free space optical link.Therefore, we have investigated the Insulated
