Non‐coding RNAs in plant stress responses: molecular insights and agricultural applications
Summary Non‐coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators in plant responses to environmental stress, orchestrating complex networks that finetune gene expression under both abiotic and biotic challenges. To elucidate this intricate ncRNA crosstalk, this review comprehensively summarizes recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of key ...

Interest Clustering Coefficient: a New Metric for Directed Networks like Twitter [PDF]
We study here the clustering of directed social graphs. The clustering coefficient has been introduced to capture the social phenomena that a friend of a friend tends to be my friend. This metric has been widely studied and has shown to be of great interest to describe the characteristics of a social graph.

ABSTRACT Drought is among the most damaging stress for plants, impacting crop yield and grassland sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate the biostimulant effect of an algal extract from Laminaria digitata on Lolium perenne cultivated in a growth chamber. Leaves were sprayed at different concentrations 7 days before stopping irrigation.

First combined studies on Lorentz Invariance Violation from observations of astrophysical sources [PDF]
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes study the highest energy (up to tens of TeV) photon emission coming from nearby and distant astrophysical sources, thus providing valuable results from searches for Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV) effects. Highly variable, energetic and distant sources such as Pulsars and AGNs are the best targets for the ...

Environmental context of endophyte symbioses: Interacting effects of water stress and insect herbivory [PDF]
Symbiotic associations between grasses and fungal endophytes are generally regarded as mutualistic, yet benefits to host plants may vary with environmental context.

RNAi technology development for weed control: all smoke and no fire?
Despite the potential of Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing in weed management several critical points such as molecular target, weed species of interest as well as delivery techniques need to be addressed. Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) technology, specifically Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing (SIGS), holds potential as an innovative approach for selective ...

About the Lifespan of Peer to Peer Networks [PDF]
We analyze the ability of peer to peer networks to deliver a complete file among the peers. Early on we motivate a broad generalization of network behavior organizing it into one of two successive phases. According to this view the network has two main states: first centralized - few sources (roots) hold the complete file, and next distributed - peers ...

Fructan biosynthesis in Lolium perenne : tissue, cultivar and temperature effects on gene expression and protein accumulation profiles : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Biology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Cultivars of Lolium perenne with high concentrations of water soluble carbohydrates (WSCs) offer opportunities to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions (nitrous oxides) from grazed pastures and improve meat and milk production in livestock.
