Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Anaplasma marginale elicit different gene expression responses in cultured tick cells
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2009)
The genus Anaplasma (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae) includes obligate tick-transmitted intracellular organisms, Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Anaplasma marginale that multiply in both vertebrate and tick host cells. ...
Transfer of an unknown quantum state, quantum networks, and memory
(American Physical Society, 2004-08-27)
We present a protocol for transfer of an unknown quantum state. The protocol is based on a two-mode cavity interacting dispersively in a sequential manner with three-level atoms in the Lambda configuration. We propose a ...
Hybrid and pureline hard winter wheat yield and stability
(Crop Science Society of America, 2004-01-01)
Pureline wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars continue to dominate production fields in the southern Great Plains despite numerous attempts to introduce hybrids during the past 28 yr. The objective of this study was to ...
Sp110 transcription is induced and required by Anaplasma phagocytophilumfor infection of human promyelocytic cells
(BioMed Central, 2007-09-20)
Background: The tick-borne intracellular pathogen, Anaplasma phagocytophilum (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae) causes human granulocytic anaplasmosis after infection of polymorphonuclear leucocytes. The human Sp110 gene is ...
Electromagnetic field induced modification of branching ratios for emission in structured vacuum
(IOP Publishing, 2008-01-17)
We report a fundamental effect of the electromagnetic field induced modification of the branching ratios for emission into several final states. The modifications are especially significant if the vacuum into which the ...
Reduced conductivity in the terahertz skin-depth layer of metals
(AIP Publishing, 2007-03-23)
The terahertz conductivities of plates of Cu and Al were measured to remain the same at 295 and 77 K using waveguide terahertz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS). This result was true for a variety of commercial alloys and ...
Optical observation of donor-bound excitons in hydrogen-implanted ZnO
(AIP Publishing, 2005-04-18)
The optical and structural properties of H or He implanted ZnO were investigated using low temperature photoluminescence (PL) and infrared spectroscopy (IR). H implantation is shown to influence the relative luminescence ...
Norms of products and factors polynomials
(2001-01-19)
We study inequalities connecting a product of uniform norms of polynomials with the norm of their product. Generalizing Gel’fond-Mahler inequality for the unit disk and Kneser-Borwein inequality for the segment [−1,1], we ...
Silencing of genes involved in Anaplasma marginale-tick interactions affects the pathogen developmental cycle in Dermacentor variabilis
(BioMed Central, 2009-07-16)
Background: The cattle pathogen, Anaplasma marginale, undergoes a developmental cycle in ticks that begins in gut cells. Transmission to cattle occurs from salivary glands during a second tick feeding. At each site of ...
Quasioptic dielectric tetrahertz cavity: Coupled through optical tunneling
(AIP Publishing, 2001-04-23)
We report the observation of the well defined oscillation of a picosecond tetrahertz (ps THz) pulse within a dielectric concentric cy1indrica1 cavity, which is coupled to an incoming focused beam of ps THz pulses by the ...
