Genomic variation within the maize stiff‐stalk heterotic germplasm pool
The Plant Genome, 2021 The stiff‐stalk heterotic group in Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important source of inbreds used in U.S. commercial hybrid production. Founder inbreds B14, B37, B73, and, to a lesser extent, B84, are found in the pedigrees of a majority of commercial seed ...

South African Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2022 In this study the efficiency of a porous HOLLOW fiber membrane module (PHFMM) was studied using a simple and generic method. Stiff spring method (SSM) was applied in order to solve two-dimensional transient model equations of transport of diluted species

Morphology of Proliferating Epithelial Cellular Tissue [PDF]
, 2018 We investigate morphologies of proliferating cellular tissue using a newly developed numerical simulation model for mechanical cell division. The model reproduces structures of simple multi-cellular organisms via simple rules for selective division and ...

The effect of stiff substrates on the collective migration of A549 cells
Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2023 The Young’s modulus of normal lung tissues ranges from 1 to 5 kPa, whereas fibrotic or lung tumor tissues can be ~30 times stiffer. However, the lung parenchyma microscopically consists of various tissues, and cancer cells in tumors contact stiff ...

JRSM Cardiovascular Disease, 2012 Measurements of biomechanical properties of arteries have become an important surrogate outcome used in epidemiological and interventional cardiovascular research. Structural and functional differences of vessels in the arterial tree result in a dampening of pulsatility and smoothing of blood flow as it progresses to capillary level.
