Sustainable mechanization-based solutions for climate smart agriculture in Asia and the Pacific [PDF]

, 2023
Agriculture is among the sectors most vulnerable to climate change. In the Asia-Pacific region, this sector is facing a number of key constraints such as a large proportion of small or fragmented land holdings, use of outdated or inefficient technologies

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...

Mechanics of Earthquakes [PDF]

Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 1994
An earthquake is a sudden rupture process in the Earth’s crust or mantle caused by tectonic stress. To understand the physics of earthquakes it is important to determine the state of stress before, during, and after an earthquake. There have been significant advances in seismology during the past few decades, and some details on the state of stress ...

Gender Differentiation in the Analysis of Alternative Farm Mechanization Choices on Small Farms in Kenya [PDF]

Using multinomial logit we analyze factors that influence the choice of mechanization technologies in Nyanza Province. The results show that farmers are aware of the attributes of the mechanization technologies, and that animal traction is the most ...

Using cell‐free RNA to identify B‐ and T‐cell clonality for diagnosis and monitoring of B‐ and T‐cell neoplasms

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using peripheral blood for determining B‐cell or T‐cell clonality is more reliable when we use cell‐free RNA (cfRNA) because cells release blood significantly more RNA than DNA. Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) of cfRNA allows us to evaluate fragment cfRNA and evaluate clonality reliably without the need for prior determination of the specific dominant

Mechanisms of Rhinitis

Allergy and Asthma Proceedings, 1998
Mast cell degranulation leads to the release of histamine and a host of other mediators. However, histamine remains preeminent in proffering the vexatious symptoms of allergic rhinitis including itching, sneezing, dripping, and congestion. The mechanisms of symptom production in rhinitis will be reviewed with an eye toward effects on mucosal resident ...

Institutional and Socioeconomic Model of Farm Mechanization and Foreign Workers [PDF]

A multi-output cost function approach to induced innovation is adopted to analyze the impact of socioeconomic variables and institutional factors on technological change in agriculture. Focusing on the impact of immigration policy and farm mechanization,

Agricultural mechanization in Tanzania

, 2020
Tanzania has seen a slow but steady growth in agricultural mechanization over the past few decades. The country’s mechanization growth trend is fairly consistent with patterns elsewhere, with both agroecological and socioeconomic conditions as key ...

Mechanization starter pack for smallholder farmers: IPSR Innovation Profile

, 2022
Smallholder agricultural mechanization is the call of the day for Africa. Smallholder mechanization helps to reduce production cost and drudgery making agriculture more attractive to the youth.
