16 p, 365.2 KB Insect feeds in salmon aquaculture : sociotechnical imagination and responsible story-telling / Strand, Roger (University of Bergen. Centre for the Study of the Sciences and the Humanities) ; Gamboa, Gonzalo (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament d'Economia i d'Història Econòmica) ; Dankel, D. J. (University of Bergen. Centre for the Study of the Sciences and the Humanities) ; Giampietro, Mario (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals)
Salmon aquaculture is a growing industry with increasing challenges of feed sustainability and availability. This global sustainability issue has led to calls for novel feeds. Aquafly, a Norwegian research project, has performed small-scale tests using the black soldier fly as an ingredient in salmon diet. [...]

11 p, 1.5 MB Use of a managed solitary bee to pollinate almonds : population sustainability and increased fruit set / Bosch, Jordi, 1961- (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Osorio-Canadas, Sergio (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. Instituto de Ecología) ; Sgolastra, Fabio (Alma Mater Studiorum Università di Bologna. Dipartimento di Scienze e Tecnologie Agro-Alimentari (Italia)) ; Vicens, Narcís (Diputació de Girona. Servei de Medi Ambient)
Osmia spp. are excellent orchard pollinators but evidence that their populations can be sustained in orchard environments and their use results in increased fruit production is scarce. We released an Osmia cornuta population in an almond orchard and measured its population dynamics, as well as visitation rates and fruit set at increasing distances from the nesting stations. [...]

Departament de Biologia Animal, de Biologia Vegetal i d'Ecologia) ; Brivio, Maurizio Francesco (University of Insubria. Laboratory of Comparative Immunology and Parasitology)
Entomopathogenic nematodes have been proposed as biological agents for the control of Drosophila suzukii, an invasive pest of small-stone and soft-skinned fruits. Larvae of the fly are susceptible to Steinernema carpocapsae infection but the reaction of immune defenses of the host are unknown. [...]
