Using the Response Surface Methodology to Predict the Effect of Different Moisture Levels on the Bulk Density and Penetration Resistance of Soil Under Different Operating Conditions [PDF]
Soil properties play a fundamental role in the success of agricultural operations through their impact on crop growth and quality, as they determine their ability to retain water and absorb nutrients, and affect soil aeration and the root system. The aim

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Investigation of Electromagnetic Gauges for Determining In-Place HMA Density, 2007 [PDF]
Density is an important component of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) pavement quality and long-term performance. Insufficient density of an in-place HMA pavement is the most frequently cited construction-related performance problem.

Growth rate and superconducting properties of Gd-Ba-Cu-O bulk superconductors melt processed in air
A generic Mg-doped Nd-Ba-Cu-O seed crystal has been developed recently for the fabrication of any type of rare earth (RE) based (RE)-Ba-Cu-O single grain bulk superconductor in air. The new generic seed simplifies significantly the top seeded melt growth

Global Soil Bulk Density DataBase (GSBDDB)
We complied the Global Soil Bulk Density DataBase (GSBDDB). This database inlcudes 162,470 soil samples (35,805 sampling sites) with bulk density (BD) and soil organic cabron (SOC) for the globle.

Leaf biomass distribution is a key factor for modeling energy and carbon fluxes in forest canopies and for assessing fire behavior. We propose a new method to estimate 3D leaf bulk density distribution, based on a calibration of indices derived from T ...

Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

The Recovery of Soils after Compaction: A laboratory investigation into the effect of wet/dry cycles on bulk density and soil hydraulic functions [PDF]
Van den Akker et al. (2003) stated that “European subsoils are more threatened than ever in history” in an editorial referring to the results of the European Union concerted action “Experiences with the impact of subsoil compaction on soil crop growth ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
