Yield response of corn and grain sorghum to row offsets on subsurface drip laterals
(Elsevier BV, 2018-09-30)
Subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) is a micro-irrigation system that could be adopted by producers in the semi-arid regions around the world for efficient use of water. Yet, several crop management issues related to SDI ...
Using a historic drought and high-heat event to validate thermal exposure predictions for ground-dwelling birds
(Wiley Open Access, 2017-07-08)
Deviations from typical environmental conditions can provide insight into how organisms may respond to future weather extremes predicted by climate modeling. During an episodic and multimonth heat wave event (i.e., ambient ...
LacSubPred: Predicting subtypes of Laccases, an important lignin metabolism-related enzyme class, using in silico approaches
(BioMed Central, 2014-10-21)
Background: Laccases (E.C. 1.10.3.2) are multi-copper oxidases that have gained importance in many industries such as biofuels, pulp production, textile dye bleaching, bioremediation, and food production. Their usefulness ...

Expected number of real zeros for random orthogonal polynomials
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2015-07-05)
We study the expected number of real zeros for random linear combinations of orthogonal polynomials. It is well known that Kac polynomials, spanned by monomials with i.i.d. Gaussian coefficients, have only (2/π + o(1))logn ...

Structure of the unique SEFIR domain from human interleukin 17 receptor A reveals a composite ligand-binding site containing a conserved a-helix for Act1 binding and IL-17 signaling
(International Union of Crystallography, 2014)
Interleukin 17 (IL-17) cytokines play a crucial role in mediating inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. A unique intracellular signaling domain termed SEFIR is found within all IL-17 receptors (IL-17Rs) as well as the key ...
Genome-wide identification of the miRNAome in response to salinity stress in date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.)
(Frontiers Media, 2015-11-05)
Although date palm is relatively salt-tolerant, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms that contribute to its salt tolerance. Only recently, investigators have uncovered microRNA-mediated post-transcriptional ...
Risk assessment of flavivirus transmission in Namibia
(Elsevier BV, 2014-05-25)
The role of arboviruses causing acute febrile illness in sub-Saharan Africa is receiving more attention. Reports of dengue in tourists were published nearly 10 years ago in Namibia, but the current epidemiology of arboviruses ...
Risk of encountering questing ticks (Ixodidae) and the prevalence of tickborne pathogens in Oklahoma state parks
(Society of Southwestern Entomologists, 2018-06)
State parks, used by many for various kinds of recreation, are also places where people and their companion animals are exposed to ticks and tickborne pathogens. While most studies in state parks in the United States have ...
