Proteomics Coupled with Metabolite and Cell Wall Profiling Reveal Metabolic Processes of a Developing Rice Stem Internode
(2017-07-13)
Internodes of grass stems function in mechanical support, transport, and, in some species, are a major sink organ for carbon in the form of cell wall polymers. This study reports cell wall composition, proteomic, and ...
Unilateral fatiguing exercise and its effect on ipsilateral and contralateral resting mechanomyographic mean frequency between aerobic populations
(2017-02-27)
The purpose of this investigation was to establish a better understanding of contralateral training and its effects between homologous muscles following unilateral fatiguing aerobic exercise during variable resting postural ...
War or Peace? How the Subjective Perception of Great Power Interdependence Shapes Preemptive Defensive Aggression
(2017-06-02)
Why do great powers with benign intentions end up fighting each other in wars they do not seek? We utilize an incentivized, two-person “Preemptive Strike Game” (PSG) to explore how the subjective perception of great power ...
The microbiome of the ant-built home : the microbial communities of a tropical arboreal ant and its nest
(2017-02-22)
Microbial life is ubiquitous, yet we are just beginning to understand how microbial communities are assembled. We test whether relationships between ant microbiomes and their environments resemble patterns identified in ...
Metabolomic and metagenomic analysis of two crude oil production pipelines experiencing differential rates of corrosion
(2017-01-31)
Corrosion processes in two North Sea oil production pipelines were studied by analyzing pig envelope samples via metagenomic and metabolomic techniques. Both production systems have similar physico-chemical properties and ...
A New Multi-core CPU Resource Availability Prediction Model for Concurrent Processes
(2017-03)
The efficiency of a multi-core architecture is directly related to the mechanisms that map the threads (processes in execution) to the cores. Determining the CPU resource availability of a multi-core architecture based on ...
Resource planning for just-in-time make-to-order environments: a scalable methodology using tabu search
(2017-06)
This paper develops a two-phase tabu search-based methodology for detailed resource planning in make-to-order production systems with multiple resources, unique routings, and varying job due dates. In the first phase ...
Is ‘no news’ really ‘good news’? Country visibility and FDI location choice
(2017-06-29)
In choosing where to invest, firms seek out information on a set of possible locations. Information asymmetries may make country visibility particularly important in decisions to locate investment abroad. We develop a ...
Race and culture : an ethnic studies approach to archival and recordkeeping research in the United States
(2017)
This paper focuses on conceptual frameworks developed in ethnic studies and contemplates what these might contribute in terms of approaching archival and recordkeeping research through an African American lens. The paper ...
Transient dynamics of terrestrial carbon storage : mathematical foundation and its applications
(2017-01-12)
Terrestrial ecosystems have absorbed roughly 30 % of anthropogenic CO2 emissions over the past decades, but it is unclear whether this carbon (C) sink will endure into the future. Despite extensive modeling and experimental ...
