An efficient protocol for functional studies of apple transcription factors using a glucocorticoid receptor fusion system. [PDF]
Premise We report a protocol for studying the function of apple (Malus ×domestica) transcription factors based on the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) system, which allows the dexamethasone (DEX)‐mediated activation of plant transcription factors to monitor the expression levels of their potential target genes.

Categorical classifiers in multiclass classification with imbalanced datasets
Abstract This paper discusses, in a multiclass classification setting, the issue of the choice of the so‐called categorical classifier, which is the procedure or criterion that transforms the probabilities produced by a probabilistic classifier into a single category or class.

A new goodness‐of‐fit measure for probit models: Surrogate R2
Abstract Probit models are used extensively for inferential purposes in the social sciences as discrete data are prevalent in a vast body of social studies. Among many accompanying model inference problems, a critical question remains unsettled: how to develop a goodness‐of‐fit measure that resembles the ordinary least square (OLS) R2 used for linear ...

Selective voltage‐gated sodium channel blockers are of growing interest as treatment for pain. For drug development of such compounds, it would be critical to have a biomarker that can be used for proof‐of‐mechanism. We aimed to evaluate whether drug‐induced changes in sodium conductance can be detected in the peripheral nerve excitability profile in ...

The Status of De in Romance Indefinites, Partitives and Pseudopartitives*
Abstract This paper focuses on the status of de in Romance indefinites, partitives and pseudopartitives. It argues that there is neither a ‘partitive article’ nor a ‘partitive preposition’ in syntax. De in Romance indefinites is the overt Spell‐Out of an abstract operator de that cancels the definiteness of articles and is responsible for ...

In this research, the normalization performance of the proposed adjusted min‐max methods was compared to the normalization performance of statistical column, decimal scaling, adjusted decimal scaling, and min‐max methods, in terms of accuracy and mean square error of the final classification outcomes.

Background and Aims. In ancient grapevine varieties, the experimental design of field trials is crucial to providing a reliable evaluation of quantitative traits. The main purposes of this study are to demonstrate the benefits of the resolvable row‐column design (RCD) for quantifying intravarietal variability and performing polyclonal selection and to ...

Unraveling the role of MADS transcription factor complexes in apple tree dormancy
Summary A group of MADS transcription factors (TFs) are believed to control temperature‐mediated bud dormancy. These TFs, called DORMANCY‐ASSOCIATED MADS‐BOX (DAM), are encoded by genes similar to SHORT VEGETATIVE PHASE (SVP) from Arabidopsis. MADS proteins form transcriptional complexes whose combinatory composition defines their molecular function ...

Abstract Natural habitats are rapidly being converted to cultivated croplands, and crop‐raiding by wildlife threatens both wildlife conservation and human livelihoods worldwide. We combined movement data from GPS‐collared elephants with camera‐trap data and local reporting systems in a before–after‐control‐impact design to evaluate community‐based ...
