Function of Soybean miR159 Family Members in Plant Responses to Low Phosphorus, High Salinity, and Abscisic Acid Treatment

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate plant growth and development and plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Although extensive studies show that miR159 family members regulate leaf and flower development in Arabidopsis thaliana, the roles of miRNAs in ...

Complex interplay of kinetic factors governs the synergistic properties of HIV-1 entry inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The homotrimeric HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) undergoes receptor-triggered structural changes that mediate viral entry through membrane fusion. This process is inhibited by chemokine receptor antagonists (CoRAs) that block Env-receptor interactions ...

Root mean square error (RMSE) or mean absolute error (MAE)? – Arguments against avoiding RMSE in the literature

open access: yes, 2014
. Both the root mean square error (RMSE) and the mean absolute error (MAE) are regularly employed in model evaluation studies. Willmott and Matsuura (2005) have suggested that the RMSE is not a good indicator of average model performance and might be a ...

Nutrient deficiency effects on root architecture and root-to-shoot ratio in arable crops

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Plant root traits play a crucial role in resource acquisition and crop performance when soil nutrient availability is low. However, the respective trait responses are complex, particularly at the field scale, and poorly understood due to difficulties in ...
