Abstract. Vegetation plays an important role in regulating global carbon cycles and is a key component of the Earth system models (ESMs) that aim to project Earth's future climate. In last decade, vegetation within ESMs has witnessed great progress from simple “big-leaf” approaches demographically structured approaches, which have better representation plant size, canopy structure, disturbances. These typically large number input parameters, sensitivity analysis needed quantify impact each...
Natural antisense transcripts (NATs) are reverse complementary at least in part to the sequences of other endogenous sense transcripts. Most NATs transcribed from opposite strands their partners. They regulate genes multiple levels and implicated various diseases. Using an improved whole-genome computational pipeline, we identified abundant cis-encoded exon-overlapping sense-antisense (SA) gene pairs human (7356), mouse (6806), fly (1554), eight eukaryotic species (total 6534). We developed...
Purpose: To evaluate the antibacterial effect of ethanol extract Mentha arvensis against multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS).Methods: Disc diffusion and microdilution assays were used to by measuring zone inhibition, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) bacteriocidal (MBC) test bacteria. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was employed morphological changes induced in cellular membrane Reactive oxygen species (ROS)...
Abstract A semi‐mechanistic forest growth model, 3‐ PG ( P hysiological rinciples redicting G rowth), was extended to calculate δ 13 C in tree rings. The estimates were based on the model's existing description of carbon assimilation and canopy conductance. model tested two ∼80‐year‐old natural stands bies grandis (grand fir) northern Idaho. We used as many independent measurements possible parameterize model. Measured parameters included quantum yield, specific leaf area, soil water content...
Although hydrologic responses to land cover changes are often studied using a paired watershed approach, it is not feasible assess the hydrological effects of many different patterns alteration by empirical studies alone. An alternative use well validated, spatially explicit, physically based numerical models estimate storage and flux dynamics. The objectives this study were sensitivity flow regimes several spatial temporal forest harvest recovery in snow-dominated mountain watershed....
Genomic deletions induced by imprecise excision of transposons have been used to disrupt gene functions in Drosophila. To determine the properties Tol2, a popular transposon zebrafish, we took advantage two transgenic zebrafish lines Et(gata2a:EGFP)pku684 and Et(gata2a:EGFP)pku760, mobilized injecting transposase mRNA into homozygous embryos. Footprint analysis showed that Tol2 were excised either precise or an manner. Furthermore, identified 1093-bp 1253-bp genomic founder embryos flanking...
Woody plants vary in their adaptations to drought and shade. For a better prediction of vegetation responses shade within dynamic global models, it is critical group species into functional types with similar adaptations. One the key challenges that are generally determined by large number plant traits may not be available for species. In this study, we present two heuristic woody groups were separated using cluster analysis three-dimensional trait-environment space based on three metrics...

Midline shift is an important clinical indicator of the severity hemorrhagic stroke and holds significance in a physician's diagnosis. Segmentation-based methods for midline assessment are prevalent field, but full utilization global information within network remains challenge. In addition, empirical integration with knowledge also essential. this study, we developed two-stage method automatic assessment. Firstly, identification step, proposed Dual-Path U-Transformer to segment brain...
Abstract The effects of increased intraspecific competition on size hierarchies (size inequality) and reproductive allocation were investigated in populations the annual plant, spring wheat ( Triticum aestivum) . A series densities (100, 300, 1 000, 3 000 10 plants/m 2 ) along a gradient intensity designed this experiment. results showed that average shoot biomass decreased with density. Reproductive was negatively correlated to Gini coefficient R = 0.927), which suggested is inclined...
Abstract Monocultures of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were grown at overcrowded densities (10 000 and 3 plants per m 2 ) under well‐watered water‐stressed conditions to investigate the effects water deficits on self‐thinning. The results showed that density reduction in populations was delayed compared with populations. Populations conformed ‐3/2‐power law. Compared condition, there no significant decrease self‐thinning line underwater‐stressed this experiment, although rate average...
Abstract Annual streamflows have decreased across mountain watersheds in the Pacific Northwest of United States over last ~70 years; however, some watersheds, observed annual flows increased. Physically based models are useful tools to reveal combined effects climate and vegetation on long‐term water balances by explicitly simulating internal watershed hydrological fluxes that affect discharge. We used physically Simultaneous Heat Water (SHAW) model simulate inter‐annual dynamics a 4 km 2...
The most prominent issue in the current human resource management of domestic airlines China is low employee satisfaction. Improving satisfaction can improve quality cabin services, increase passenger satisfaction, and ultimately attract customers, driving sustained development airlines. reasons for include: outdated systems lack communication mechanisms, unreasonable salary performance evaluation, single job content. Communication content, systems, standards be improved based on Maslow's...
