Seed pretreatment length when producing seeds for restoration may impact seed dormancy in offspring
Abstract Introduction Seed dormancy regulates germination timing to improve seedling survival. Many temperate species produce physiologically dormant seeds, requiring winter conditions (i.e. moist‐cold stratification) to overcome dormancy. Exposing seeds to suboptimal stratification lengths for restoration may alter genetic diversity and/or ...

Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

Abstract Synaptic input to the motoneuron pool is altered during fatiguing muscle contractions. In humans, the corticospinal tract is often studied, with equivocal findings regarding its role in the reduction of force. To date, the involvement of the reticulospinal tract during states of fatigue has not been explored.

Abstract figure There is positive covariation in the amplitudes of motor evoked potentials (MEPs) generated by (near simultaneous) stimulation of the two motor cortices. That is, larger responses to stimulation of the left motor cortex tend to be accompanied by larger responses to stimulation of the right motor cortex, and smaller responses to ...

Abstract figure legend During the first few days of development, zebrafish acquire the ability to produce increasingly refined movements that rely progressively less on the activity of primary motoneurons. At the same time, primary motoneurons undergo functional maturation, becoming increasingly capable of repetitive firing.

Validation of Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MRI Using Perfused Explanted Human Livers
ABSTRACT Purpose Evaluate the feasibility of using perfused explanted human livers for validating intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM). Methods Eight (n = 8) explanted livers from deceased donors were obtained. The portal vein and hepatic artery of each explanted liver were connected to a perfusion system.

COMPUTATIONAL BALLISTIC IMPACT ANALYSIS OF AIRCRAFT ARMORS
Lightweight and ballistic resistance are significant parameters in the design of aircraft armors. Aircraft should not compromise the payload or its maneuverability due to the armors added to the system.
