Farming in the shadows of Rome: A multi‐proxy palaeoenvironmental record from Loch Clunie—Perthshire

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Roman impacts on local society is a subject of international significance. Loch Clunie, Perthshire, lies only 5.4 km from Inchtuthil, the only Roman legionary fortress in Scotland, and contains two crannogs and a probable lakeside hillfort. Despite this proximity and the likelihood of local–Roman interaction, these sites remain unexcavated ...

Bio-accumulation of Arsenic (III) Using Nelumbo Nucifera Gaertn

Journal of Health and Pollution, 2019
Background. High arsenic levels in potable water are a threat to public health in India. About 85% of the water in India's rural areas comes from groundwater and roughly 27 million people are at risk of arsenic (As) contamination. Objectives. The present

Simultaneous T2, T2*, and R2′ Mapping for Multiple Sclerosis Using Nonlinear Model‐Based Reconstruction of Undersampled Radial RARE‐EPI MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To demonstrate the synergy of undersampled radial 2in1‐RARE‐EPI acquisition and nonlinear model‐based reconstruction for accelerated and simultaneous T2, T2*, and R2′ mapping in brains of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods 2in1‐RARE‐EPI combines a RARE module with an EPI module to capture T2 and T2* information.

Effect of compound preservative treatment on the quality and physicochemical properties of fresh-cut lotus root

Czech Journal of Food Sciences
Fresh-cut lotus root is susceptible to quality problems after cutting and processing. This paper investigated the effect of 0.8% glacial acetic acid compounded with 0.5% ascorbic acid solution on fresh-cut lotus root quality and physicochemical ...

Hydrostatic stress and triaxiality factors in a lotus root cross section

, 2014
Engineers often use nature as an inspiration for generating designs. Plants have optimised their structures over millions of years of evolution. A lotus root, rhizome of Nelumbo Nucifera Gaertn having gas canals was studied in the paper.

Laterally Oscillating Trajectory for Undersampling Slices: LOTUS

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose While spiral sampling offers SNR advantages for diffusion MRI, its acceleration with simultaneous multislice remains relatively unexplored. This study introduces Laterally Oscillating Trajectory for Undersampling Slices (LOTUS), which is a 3D spiral‐like k‐space trajectory that aims to minimize g‐factor via controlled incoherent ...

Alcoholic extracts of Russian sage (Salvia yangii) contain bioactive terpenoids with inhibitory activity against grapevine downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Alcoholic extracts from flowers, leaves, and shoots of Russian sage decreased downy mildew severity on grapevine leaf disks. Fractionation followed by metabolomic analysis revealed putative terpenoids as the main components of the active fractions. Specifically, 7‐methylrosmanol, 12‐O‐methylcarnosic acid, carnosic acid, and carnosol were identified as ...

Nitrogen and Nod factor signaling determine Lotus japonicus root exudate composition and bacterial assembly [PDF]

Symbiosis with soil-dwelling bacteria that fix atmospheric nitrogen allows legume plants to grow in nitrogen-depleted soil. Symbiosis impacts the assembly of root microbiota, but it is unknown how the interaction between the legume host and rhizobia ...
