'Rice,' 'sorghum,' 'pearl millet' and 'finger millet' in Nilo-Saharan
This study overviews the geographical distribution of the terms for four major types of crops cultivated in Africa, ‘rice,’ ‘sorghum,’ ‘pearl millet’ and ‘finger millet’ in Nilo-Saharan languages. Most Nilo-Saharan languages lack a native term for ‘rice,’ but a number of languages attest a loanword from Arabic or Swahili.

Abstract figure legend Young, healthy males and females completed an incremental running test, demonstrating a progressive increase in middle cerebral artery blood velocity (MCAv) up to maximal exercise despite reductions in end‐tidal CO2. To investigate the underlying mechanism, foot‐strike timing was synchronized to the diastolic phase of the cardiac

Time course sensor‐based phenotyping can predict Ascochyta blight disease severity in Cicer species
Abstract Ascochyta blight is a widely occurring chickpea fungal disease that can cause severe yield loss. Breeding for crop resistance benefits from high‐throughput evaluation of plant–pathogen interactions in genotypes which can serve as sources of resistance.
