A combined microRNA and transcriptome analyses illuminates the resistance response of rice against brown planthopper

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background The brown planthopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens Stål) is a kind of phloem-feeding pest that adversely affects rice yield. Recently, the BPH-resistance gene, BPH6, was cloned and applied in rice breeding to effectively control BPH.

Spin, charge and orbital fluctuations in a multi-orbital Mott insulator [PDF]

, 2005
The two-orbital degenerate Hubbard model with distinct hopping integrals is studied by combining dynamical mean-field theory with quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The role of orbital fluctuations for the nature of the Mott transition is elucidated by examining the temperature dependence of spin, charge and orbital susceptibilities as well as the one ...

How Does Cultural and Colonial Heritage Affect Optimal Branding Strategies? Evidence From the Rice Sector in Senegal

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Africa's cultural and colonial heritage has profoundly segmented rice markets. Whereas in ancient centers of rice domestication, consumers maintained preferences for local rice consistent with their cultural heritage, preferences have shifted toward imported Asian rice in coastal areas around seaports, due to prior exposure to colonial import ...

Introducing a Hybrid Method of Radiative Transfer for Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics [PDF]

, 2008
A new means of incorporating radiative transfer into smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is introduced, which builds on the success of two previous methods - the polytropic cooling approximation as devised by Stamatellos et al (2007), and flux limited diffusion (e.g. Mayer et al 2007).
