It can drive widespread application of DG by incentivizing end-users to take localized power production through non-renewable energy technologies. Despite having beneficial factors, unfortunately, both distribution companies and end-users are reluctant to use net energy meters. What’s Net Metering It is a billing process that allows individuals or businesses are producing own electricity to send unused energy back to the local power grid and get credited back for its retail...

Let us discuss the top pheromones. The term aphrodisiac is widely used to describe this phenomenon, but care should be exercised in its use because of anthropomorphism, the tendency of anecdotal observations to be given more credence than they deserve, and the assumption that an aphrodisiac is always successful. Male aphrodisiacs are wide- spread and most well known from the Lepidoptera, but even in this group we know...

Pheromones are found in rabbit litters are deposited in specially dug breeding chambers which, prior to parturition are lined with grass which is usually dry, and fur which the doe plucks from her belly, chest and anks. Presumably this fur carries the scent of the female pheromones, particularly the inguinal scent, with which the kittens become familiar very early in their lives. The mother also deposits...

There are various reasons why young individuals may be kept isolated from other members of their pheromone group by being confined to special sites. Thus they may need better protection from predators and adverse climatic conditions or may have to be kept closer to sources of food and water or protected from deliberate or accidental injury by conspecifics. During the course of amatory behavior prior to mating in...

It is the intent of this article to describe the essential biological role of aggregation pheromones in the processes of scolytid host selection and mass attack. In addition, the role of scolytid pheromones in guiding associated insects to scolytid-attacked hosts will be examined as outlined in g. 8.2. Specic examples are taken from well researched species to illustrate each step. It is not the intent of this...
