Dissecting a wheat QTL for yield present in a range of environments: from the QTL to candidate genes
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2006)
Previous studies with 95 bread wheat doubled haploid lines (DHLs) from the cross Chinese Spring (CS)xSQ1 trialled over 24 yearxtreatmentxlocations identified major yield quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in homoeologous ...
Zn(II) complexes of (1,3-thiazol-2-yl)hydrazones as potential pharmacological agents
(Int Union Crystallography, Chester, 2017)
Water safety plan enhancements with improved drinking water quality detection techniques
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Drinking water quality has been regulated in most European countries for nearly two decades by the drinking water directive 98/83/EC. The directive is now under revision with the goal of meeting stricter demands for safe ...
Whole-genome sequencing of European autochthonous and commercial pig breeds allows the detection of signatures of selection for adaptation of genetic resources to different breeding and production systems
(Bmc, London, 2020)
BACKGROUND: Natural and artificial directional selection in cosmopolitan and autochthonous pig breeds and wild boars have shaped their genomes and resulted in a reservoir of animal genetic diversity. Signatures of selection ...
Numerical simulation of "an American haboob"
(Copernicus Gesellschaft Mbh, Gottingen, 2014)
A dust storm of fearful proportions hit Phoenix in the early evening hours of 5 July 2011. This storm, an American haboob, was predicted hours in advance because numerical, land-atmosphere modeling, computing power and ...
Effects of mechanical-activation and TiO2 addition on the behavior of two-step sintered steatite ceramics
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
Steatite, as ceramic with composition predominantly resting on magnesium silicate, was produced from economic resources - talc, aluminosilicate clays, and either BaCO3 or feldspar as flux. Titanium dioxide was a doping ...
Signatures of de-domestication in autochthonous pig breeds and of domestication in wild boar populations from MC1R and NR6A1 allele distribution
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2019)
Autochthonous pig breeds are usually reared in extensive or semi-extensive production systems that might facilitate contact with wild boars and, thus, reciprocal genetic exchanges. In this study, we analysed variants in ...
The influence of mechanical activation on structural evolution of nanocrystalline SrTiO3 powders
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2017)
Structural changes caused by mechanical activation of SrTiO3 powders were investigated using a variety of methods. Average crystallite size continuously decreased with increased activation time to around 20 nm after 120 ...
Species-dependent changes in stomatal sensitivity to abscisic acid mediated by external pH
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2006)
The direct effects of pH changes and/or abscisic acid (ABA) on stomatal aperture were examined in epidermal strips of Commelina communis L. and Arabidopsis thaliana. Stomata were initially opened at pH 7 or pH 5. The ...
Natural Antioxidants from Seeds and Their Application in Meat Products
(MDPI, BASEL, 2020)
The use of synthetic antioxidants in the food industry has raised important questions about the effects of prolonged consumption on human health. On top of that, the consumption of meat products has been changing due to ...
