Cloning and Characterization of Micrornas from Sorghum
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-07-01)
In plants, gene regulation guided by the microRNAs (miRNAs) plays a key role in normal growth and development, nutrient homeostasis and stress tolerance. MiRNAs post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression either by ...
Relation between body weight and social position in children's classroom friendship network
(2010-07)
Scope and Method of Study: The present study focused on the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and centrality (degree and global) and the differences in centrality by weight status in first grade children. Participants ...
Real-time Estimation of Material Removal Rate (MRR) in Copper Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP) Using Wireless Temperature Sensor
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-08-01)
In this study, temperature sensor signals collected from a wireless temperature sensor were used to estimate MRR in Copper CMP (Cu-CMP). A set of Cu-CMP experiments were conducted on a Buehler Automet 250 polishing machine ...
Ecological Studies of the Psocid Liposcelis rufa Broadhead (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae)
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
Psocids (Psocoptera) have risen to prominence as serious pests of stored-products worldwide in the last two decades. However, very little is known about their ecology and biology which is crucial for the development of ...
