Efficient seeding techniques for protein similarity search [PDF]

open access: yesBIRD - ALBIO 13 (2008), 2008
We apply the concept of subset seeds proposed in [1] to similarity search in protein sequences. The main question studied is the design of efficient seed alphabets to construct seeds with optimal sensitivity/selectivity trade-offs. We propose several different design methods and use them to construct several alphabets.We then perform an analysis of ...

Seed-to-Seed: Image Translation in Diffusion Seed Space [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
We introduce Seed-to-Seed Translation (StS), a novel approach for Image-to-Image Translation using diffusion models (DMs), aimed at translations that require close adherence to the structure of the source image. In contrast to existing methods that modify images during the diffusion sampling process, we leverage the semantic information encoded within ...

Release of Arabidopsis seed dormancy by cold atmospheric plasma relies on cytoplasmic glass transition [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. (2023), 2023
When mature Arabidopsis thaliana seeds are dormant, their germination is prevented in apparently favourable conditions. This primary dormancy can be released during seed dry storage through a process called after-ripening whose duration can last several months.

SEEDS AND SEED BANKS [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 1987
SummaryThe involvement of four factors (life history, predation, possession of a persistent seed bank and seedling establishment) in the evolution of seed size in flowering plants is discussed. Among herbacaeous plants, biennials seem to have larger seeds than annuals and perennials, a difference which may explain the capacity of some biennials to ...

Seed-to-Seed-to-Seed Growth and Development of Arabidopsis in Microgravity [PDF]

open access: yesAstrobiology, 2014
Arabidopsis thaliana was grown from seed to seed wholly in microgravity on the International Space Station. Arabidopsis plants were germinated, grown, and maintained inside a growth chamber prior to returning to Earth. Some of these seeds were used in a subsequent experiment to successfully produce a second (back-to-back) generation of microgravity ...

A unifying framework for seed sensitivity and its application to subset seeds (Extended abstract) [PDF]

open access: yesAlgorithms in Bioinformatics, LNBI 3692 : 251-263, 2005, 2006
We propose a general approach to compute the seed sensitivity, that can be applied to different definitions of seeds. It treats separately three components of the seed sensitivity problem - a set of target alignments, an associated probability distribution, and a seed model - that are specified by distinct finite automata.

From Little Things Big Things Grow: A Collection with Seed Studies for Medical Systematic Review Literature Search [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Medical systematic review query formulation is a highly complex task done by trained information specialists. Complexity comes from the reliance on lengthy Boolean queries, which express a detailed research question. To aid query formulation, information specialists use a set of exemplar documents, called `seed studies', prior to query formulation ...

Seaweed Extract Components Are Correlated with the Seeds Germination and Growth of Tomato Seedlings

open access: yesSeeds, 2023
Seaweeds are used in traditional agriculture practices because of their beneficial effects. Recently, the rising demand for organically grown foods has amplified the use of organic fertilizers such as seaweed extracts.

Optimal Seed Solver: Optimizing Seed Selection in Read Mapping [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, Jun 1;32(11):1632-42, 2016, 2015
Motivation: Optimizing seed selection is an important problem in read mapping. The number of non-overlapping seeds a mapper selects determines the sensitivity of the mapper while the total frequency of all selected seeds determines the speed of the mapper.

Assessment of Elongation of the Mesocotyl-Coleoptile and Biomass in Parents and Crosses of Corn Seedlings of the High Valleys of Mexico

open access: yesSeeds, 2023
The elongation of the mesocotyl and the coleoptile and other seedling traits were analyzed from 16 hybrids of two seed sizes, five varieties and a control.
