White mold (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum de Bary) is one of the most important fungal diseases of winter oilseed rape (OSR).Since the pathogen can persist in the soil for a long time with its sclerotia, prevention and non-chemical methods (specifically biological agents) are important pillars in the integrated plant protection strategy against this pat
Abstract Background Natural killer (NK) cells are an important resource of the innate immune system directly involved in the spontaneous recognition and lysis of virus-infected and tumor cells.An exquisite balance of inhibitory and activating receptors tightly controls the NK cell activity.At present, one of the best-characterized activating recept
RADIX (Rapid Access Drilling and Ice eXtraction) is a prospecting drilling system that has been designed, realized and tested on polar ice sheets.The goal of RADIX is to provide rapid, deep access for sampling of ice and downhole physical measurements that inform about ice sheet age and history and the integrity of layering.A 20 mm access hole is d
Tooth discoloration that cannot be treated with more conservative procedures such as bleaching or SYNERGY TREATMENT AND BARRIER LOTION microabrasion, requires restorative treatment to mask the unesthetic appearance.Ceramic veneers provide exceptional resistance to wear and abrasion, retain their glazed luster over a very long time, and are durable.
This paper describes the implementation of an improved clutter suppression method for the multiple pulse repetition time (PRT) technique based on Dispensers simulated radar data.The suppression method is constructed using maximum likelihood methodology in time domain and is called parametric time domain method (PTDM).The procedure relies on the ass
