Physiological genetics of aluminum tolerance in the wheat cultivar Atlas 66
(Crop Science Society of America, 2002-09)
Aluminum toxicity limits wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production on acidic soils. The wheat cultivar Atlas 66 reportedly may have both more than one Al tolerance gene and more than one Al tolerance mechanism. The purpose ...
Genetic analysis of indirect selection for winter wheat grain yield using spectral reflectance indices
(Crop Science Society of America, 2007-07-30)
Selection criteria that can facilitate grain yield improvement would be considered important plant breeding tools. We assessed the value of spectral reflectance indices (SRI) as indirect selection tools for grain yield ...
Terahertz conductivity of thin metal films
(AIP Publishing, 2008-08-05)
The conductivities of thin Al, Au, and Ag films were measured via their transmission at terahertz frequencies. The conductivities of all the films, particularly the thinner films and Al films, were much smaller than their ...
Polariton and free-exciton-like photoluminescence in ZnO
(AIP Publishing, 2001-12-03)
An unusual photoluminescence line X has been observed in ZnO at an energy between that of the common donor-bound excitons (DBEs) and the free excitons (FEs). In the presence of a high carrier concentration, induced by a ...
Linear free divisors and the global logarithmic comparison theorem
(Association des Annales de l'Institut Fourier, 2009)
A complex hypersurface D in C^n is a linear free divisor (LFD) if its module of logarithmic vector fields has a global basis of linear vector fields. We classify all LFDs for n at most 4.
Quantum logic gates using Stark-shifted Raman transitions in a cavity
(American Physical Society, 2004-06-04)
We present a scheme to realize the basic two-qubit logic gates such as quantum phase gate and controlled-NOT gate using a detuned optical cavity interacting with a three-level Raman system. We discuss the role of Stark ...
Relationship of first hollow stem and heading in winter wheat
(Crop Science Society of America, 2007-09)
The majority of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in the southern Great Plains is produced as a dual-purpose crop enterprise. Profitability of the system is highly dependent on removal of cattle (Bos taurus L.) from wheat ...
Subwavelength atom localization via coherent population trapping
(IOP Publishing, 2006-08-14)
We present an atom localization scheme based on coherent population trapping. We consider atomic transitions in a Lambda configuration where the control field is a standing-wave field. The probe field and the control field ...
Generation of a superposition of multiple mesoscopic states of radiation in a resonant cavity
(American Physical Society, 2005-04-27)
Using resonant interaction between atoms and the field in a high quality cavity, we show how to generate a superposition of many mesoscopic states of the field. We study the quasi-probability distributions and demonstrate ...
Evidence of the role of tick subolesin in gene expression
(BioMed Central, 2008-08-02)
Background: Subolesin is an evolutionary conserved protein that was discovered recently in Ixodes scapularis as a tick protective antigen and has a role in tick blood digestion, reproduction and development. In other ...
