AFB1 and 5 act maternally outside the seed to promote seed growth in Arabidopsis
(2018-07-14)
The plant hormone auxin in maternal tissues plays a major role in promoting seed growth. However, whether auxin affects seed growth in maternal tissues in or outside the seed is unclear. In the process of investigating the ...
Pilot study of impact of a pedal desk on postprandial responses in sedentary workers
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2018-10)
Physical inactivity has been linked to rates of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease through insulin resistance and other mechanisms. Although sedentary workplace environments have unintentionally contributed to the risk ...
Flexible nine-channel photodetector probe facilitated intraspinal multisite transcutaneous photobiomodulation therapy dosimetry in cadaver dogs
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2018-01-23)
Noninvasive photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) of spinal cord disease remains speculative due to the lack of evidence for whether photobiomodulatory irradiances can be transcutaneously delivered to the spinal cord under a ...
Nutrients mediate intestinal bacteria-mucosal immune crosstalk
(Frontiers Media, 2018-01-24)
The intestine is the shared site of nutrient digestion, microbiota colonization and immune cell location and this geographic proximity contributes to a large extent to their interaction. The onset and development of a great ...
Automated laboratory method for measuring CO2 emissions from soils
(American Society of AgronomyCrop Science Society of AmericaSoil Science Society of America, 2018-04-12)
A gas chromatography (GC) headspace method was developed for soil microbial respiration (CO2 emission) analysis after a 24-h incubation of a rewetted soil. The GC method was compared with the Solvita CO2 burst method by ...
Open Access: Identifying quality journals and avoiding predatory publishers
(Oklahoma State University, 2018-10-22)
Race, politics, and public safety: A panel study of U.S. highway patrol and state police strength, 1981-2015
(Hipatia Press, 2018-03-30)
This study assesses the social, political, economic, and traffic-/travel-related predictors of sworn highway patrol and state police strength in the United States between 1981 and 2015. Fixed-effects estimates based on ...
Dynamics and energy landscape of the jammed spin-liquid
(2018-11-20)
We study the low temperature static and dynamical properties of the classical bond-disordered antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the kagome lattice. This model has recently been shown to host a new type of spin liquid ...
Caregiving stress among American Indians with Type 2 diabetes: The importance of awareness of connectedness and family support
(SAGE Publications, 2018)
American Indian (AI) communities experience a disproportionate rate of Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cumulative exposure to stress. Although this link is well researched among various populations, it has not been examined among ...
Effects of capsule on surface diffuse reflectance spectroscopy of the subcapsular parenchyma of a solid organ
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2018-07-27)
We hypothesize that the capsular optical properties and thickness combined affect how accurate the diffuse reflectance on the surface of a capsular solid organ represents that on the subcapsular parenchyma. Monte Carlo ...
