Nature of conduction in doped silicon
(American Physical Society, 1997-02-10)Via ultrafast optoelectronic THz techniques, we are able to test alternative theories of conduction by precisely measuring the complex conductivity of doped silicon from low frequencies to frequencies higher than the plasma ... -
Nature reserves as catalysts for landscape change
(Ecological Society of America, 2012-02-14)Scientists have called repeatedly for a broader conservation agenda that emphasizes not only protected areas but also the landscapes in which those areas are embedded. We describe key advances in the science and practice ... -
Negative regulation of seed germination by maternal AFB1 and AFB5 in Arabidopsis
(2023-09-12)The plant hormone auxin suppresses seed germination, but how auxin does it remains poorly understood. While studying the functions of the AUXIN SIGNALING F-BOX (AFB) auxin co-receptors in Arabidopsis, we consistently ... -
Negative Subtraction Hybridization: An efficient method to isolate large numbers of condition-specific cDNAs
(BioMed Central, 2004-03-29)Background: The construction of cDNA libraries is a useful tool to understand gene expression in organisms under different conditions, but random sequencing of unbiased cDNA collections is laborious and can give rise to ... -
Neglected tropical diseases of Namibia: Unsolved mysteries
(Elsevier BV, 2012-09-21)Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are diseases most commonly found in settings of poverty and are responsible for the morbidity and/or mortality of millions each year. As an upper-middle income country, Namibia is not ... -
Network approaches to substance use and HIV/hepatitis C risk among homeless youth and adult women in the United States: A review
(Scientific Research Publishing, Inc., 2016-08-26)During the United States economic recession of 2008-2011, the number of homeless and unstably housed people in the United States increased considerably. Homeless adult women and unaccompanied homeless youth make up the ... -
New design of a lentiviral shRNA vector with inducible co-expression of ARGONAUTE 2 for enhancing gene silencing efficiency
(BioMed Central, 2015-12-08)Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is a robust tool for inhibiting specific gene expression, but it is limited by the uncertain efficiency of siRNA or shRNA constructs. It has been shown that the overexpression of ARGONAUTE ... -
New Mycobacterium avium antifolate shows synergistic effect when used in combination with dihydropteroate synthase inhibitors
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005-11)Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) is resistant to trimethoprim, an inhibitor of bacterial dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). A previously identified selective inhibitor of MAC DHFR, SRI-8858, was shown to have synergistic ... -
New near-analytical path to the threshold size of spherical random lasing via geometric-distribution-probability weighting of the diffusive photon fluence rate
(ArXiv, 2022-08-15)We demonstrate a new near-analytical path to the threshold-size of random-lasing for the case of a uniform and isotropic-scattering sphere. We assess a geometric-distribution-probability (GDP) weighted integration of the ... -
New records of Aedes aegypti in southern Oklahoma, 2016
(The American Mosquito Control Association, 2017-03)Aedes aegypti is an important subtropical vector species and is predicted to have a limited year-round distribution in the southern United States. Collection of the species has not been officially verified in Oklahoma since ... -
New strategy in observer modeling for greenhouse cucumber seedling growth
(Frontiers Media, 2017-08-08)State observer is an essential component in computerized control loops for greenhouse-crop systems. However, the current accomplishments of observer modeling for greenhouse-crop systems mainly focus on mass/energy balance, ... -
Nitrogen use and biomass distribution in culms of winter wheat populations selected from grain-only and dual-purpose systems
(Crop Science Society of America, 2007-02-06)Beginning in late fall and ending at jointing in early spring, winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crops in the southern Great Plains are often grazed by stocker cattle (Bos taurus L.) and then harvested for grain. ... -
NMR studies of membrane proteins
(Springer Nature, 2010-01-01)Nuclear magnetic resonance studies of membrane proteins yield valuable insights into their structure and topology. For example, the tilt angle and rotation of the helices in an ion channel can be determined by solid-state ... -
No such thing as neutral: Rethinking undergraduate instruction and outreach in a time of "post-truth"
(ACRL Publications, 2019)Over the years, our campus has been shaken by racially-charged incidents that leave many students hurting and confused. In the current political climate, with issues of race, gender, citizenship, sexuality, and religion ... -
Nonclassical correlation of polarization-entangled photons in a biexciton-exciton cascade
(IOP Publishing, 2008-11-07)We develop a theoretical model to study the intensity–intensity correlation of polarization-entangled photons emitted in a biexciton–exciton cascade. We calculate the degree of correlation and show how polarization ... -
Nonclassical imaging for a quantum search of trapped ions
(American Physical Society, 2004-12-27)We discuss a simple search problem which can be pursued with different methods, either on a classical or on a quantum basis. The system is represented by a chain of trapped ions. The ion to be searched is a member of that ... -
Nonclassicality and decoherence of photon-subtracted squeezed states
(American Physical Society, 2007-03-07)We discuss nonclassical properties of single-photon subtracted squeezed vacuum states in terms of the sub-Poissonian statistics and the negativity of the Wigner function. We derive a compact expression for the Wigner ... -
Noninfectious sporozoites in the salivary glands of a minimally susceptible anopheline mosquito
(American Society of Parasitologists, 1995-12)In studies to evaluate vector-malaria parasite relationships, we have found that Anopheles albimanus is minimally susceptible to the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium yoelii. Normally, less than 10% of A. albimanus develop ...
