Photometric Properties of Kiso Ultraviolet-Excess Galaxies in the Lynx-Ursa Major Region [PDF]
We have performed a systematic study of several regions in the sky where the number of galaxies exhibiting star formation (SF) activity is greater than average. We used Kiso ultraviolet-excess galaxies (KUGs) as our SF-enhanced sample.

Collection season and auxin treatment in the propagation by cuttings of mandarin hybrids
Propagation by cuttings is an alternative for obtaining citrus rootstocks. The exogenous application of indolebutyric acid (IBA), cutting collection season and genotypes used may affect the rooting and vegetative growth of citrus rootstocks cuttings. Two

Diverse CD81 proteins support hepatitis C virus infection. [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry is dependent on CD81. To investigate whether the CD81 sequence is a determinant of HCV host range, we expressed a panel of diverse CD81 proteins and tested their ability to interact with HCV.

Abstract Six sets of 48 maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines, and their 96 single crosses generated using the North Carolina Mating Design II system, were evaluated for resistance to gray leaf spot (GLS). The aim of the study was to assess the implications of combining ability, heterotic effects, and potence ratio in breeding for GLS resistance in maize ...

ABSTRACT Mitochondrial trifunctional protein (TFP) deficiency is an inherited disorder of long‐chain fatty acid β‐oxidation (FAO). TFP is a heteromeric enzyme composed of two α and two β‐subunits. Despite early detection and dietary treatment, TFP deficiency patients often develop hypoglycemia, rhabdomyolysis, cardiomyopathy, and peripheral neuropathy.

Sick of Robots—Heterogeneous Effects of Industrial Robots on Sickness Absence
ABSTRACT This paper studies how the introduction of industrial robots affects sickness absence among workers in the manufacturing sector in Norway. We use data on the imports of industrial robots at the firm level, combined with employee‐firm linked register data, to investigate the impact of robotization on the duration of sick leave (SL).

Isolation and characterization of highly replicable hepatitis C virus genotype 1a strain HCV-RMT. [PDF]
Multiple genotype 1a clones have been reported, including the very first hepatitis C virus (HCV) clone called H77. The replication ability of some of these clones has been confirmed in vitro and in vivo, although this ability is somehow compromised.
