Hours after watering plants with 75 mM NaCl, the water potential of reproductive structures precipitously decreases.In flowers with mature gametes, this change in water potential did not alter the rate of fertilization but caused 37% of the fertilized ovules to abort.We hypothesize that the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in ovules is
In this paper, we propose a theoretical model to simulate microbial growth on contaminated air filters and entrainment of bioaerosols from the filters to an indoor environment.Air filter filtration and antimicrobial efficiencies, and lintusakset effects of dust particles on these efficiencies, were evaluated.The number of bioaerosols downstream of
Despite having several economic and environmental benefits of locating suitable sites for wastewater treatment plants, only a few studies have been reported in the literature.The present study implemented a fuzzy-analytic hierarchy process (fuzzy-AHP) method followed by the multi-criteria decision analysis for identification of suitable locations f
Abstract The internal microenvironment of a living cell is heterogeneous and comprises a multitude of organelles with distinct biochemistry.Amongst them are biomolecular condensates, which are membrane-less, jinsoon+coupons phase-separated compartments enriched in system-specific proteins and nucleic acids.The heterogeneity of the cell engenders th
The equation of state (EOS) of jinsoon+coupons dense strongly interacting matter can be probed by astrophysical observations of neutron stars (NS), such as X-ray detections of pulsars or the measurement of the tidal deformability of NSs during the inspiral stage of NS mergers.These observations constrain the EOS at most up to the density of the max
