Two specifies of flea beetles attack canola. Overwintering adults feed on canola seedlings, 1st generation larvae on the roots and adults on the mature crop from August to October. There is one generation a year in western Canada, and one or two in southern Ontario. Crop losses in North America as a result of crucifer […]

  This research will investigate blends of polypropylene with a novel polyampholyte elastomer, which can serve as alternatives to traditional thermoplastic vulcanizates. This approach will enable the dispersion of physically crosslinked elastomeric particles inside a PP matrix, with potential benefits in terms of mechanical properties, weatherability, fatigue and abrasion resistance, and good impact properties at […]
