A Numerical Investigation of the Hydrodynamic Performance of a Pitch-Type Wave Energy Converter Using Weakly and Fully Nonlinear Models

Energies
In this study, the performance of a wave energy converter (WEC) rotor under regular and irregular wave conditions was investigated using 3D nonlinear numerical models.

No Cost of Resistance in Wheat Gene Stack Lines Containing 10 Stem Rust Resistance Transgenes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic resistance is the most economical and sustainable approach for crop protection, however, it is regularly overcome by pathogen virulence evolution. Polygenic resistance has greater durability, but unlinked genes are laborious to maintain in breeding programs.

Paper 34: Supratubercle Anterior Closing Wedge Osteotomy: No Change in Patellar Height, Compared to Decreased Height for Medial Opening Wedge Proximal Tibial Osteotomy, and Significant Decreases in Anterior Tibial Translation at Six Months Postoperatively

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to radiographically assess changes in 1) patellar height, 2) anterior tibial translation (ATT), and 3) posterior tibial slope following supratubercle ACW-PTO and to compare changes in patellar height to a cohort ...

Functional Studies of the Bacterial Avirulence Protein AvrPto by Mutational Analysis

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
Pseudomonas syringae pathovars expressing avrPto are avirulent on plants expressing the resistance gene Pto. Over 85 mutants of avrPto were generated with multiple strategies, and several assays were used to characterize AvrPto function.

Harnessing Natural Diversity and Rational Design for Enhanced Plant Immunity

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant pathogens cause crop loss. Genetic resistance, through natural genetic diversity or engineered resistance, can be highly effective in protecting plants from infection. Genetic resistance from wild relatives of crops has been successfully introduced into crops to control pathogen infection.

Trading people versus trading time: What is the difference?

Population Health Metrics, 2005
Background Person trade-off (PTO) elicitations yield different values than standard utility measures, such as time trade-off (TTO) elicitations. Some people believe this difference arises because the PTO captures the importance of distributive principles

Due Diligence Regulation and Sustainability Governance in Value Chains: Lessons From the South African Wine Sector

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A recent raft of due diligence regulation (DDR) addressing social and environmental conditions in global value chains (GVCs) has spread across the UK and Europe. An emerging literature on DDR highlights the politics of its formation. Yet, we know little about how existing sustainability governance along GVCs interacts with DDR or the wider ...

Phenotypic expression of the gene‐for‐gene interaction in plant pathogenic bacteria: An implication for resistance to bacterial diseases by plants

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Plant pathogenic bacteria cause massive losses in agriculture and damage to natural plant habitats. Bacterial pathogens not only reduce crop production, but they also reduce crop quality by releasing toxins into the environment. Pathogenic bacteria that invade plant tissues must overcome the plant's defense mechanisms. Plants possess an innate

Thermal decomposition of potassium titanium oxalate [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2011
The thermal decomposition of potassium titanium oxalate (PTO) was studied using non-isothermal thermogravimetry at different heating rates under a nitrogen atmosphere. The thermal decomposition of PTO proceeds mainly through five stages forming potassium

Little Letters, Heavy Lessons: A Black Mother's Critique of a “Simple” Phonics Lesson and the Myths of Neutral Instruction

The Reading Teacher, Volume 80, Issue 2, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Racialized multilingual children need their cultural and linguistic sophistication to be seen and heard in their classrooms. Drawing from my daughter's first grade educational experiences, this article explores how the teaching of a popular phonics‐based sorting lesson centered around the pronunciation of the inflectional suffix “‐ed” became ...
