Synopsis Actual transpiration decreased with decreasing soil moisture content and increasing potential transpiration. Average suction in the root zone when actual rate fell below varied from 12 bars was 1.4 mm. per day to 0.3 bar 6 7 day.
Synopsis Moisture stress prior to silking reduced grain yield by 25%, moisture at 50% and after 21%. The interactions between different growth stages were not statistically significant.
Patterns and bottlenecks A year into the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 pandemic, we are experiencing waves of new variants emerging. Some these have worrying functional implications, such as increased transmissibility or antibody treatment escape. Lythgoe et al. undertaken in-depth sequencing more than 1000 hospital patients' isolates to find out how virus is mutating within individuals. Overall, there seem be consistent reproducible patterns within-host diversity. The...
We conducted voluntary Covid-19 testing programmes for symptomatic and asymptomatic staff at a UK teaching hospital using naso-/oro-pharyngeal PCR immunoassays IgG antibodies. 1128/10,034 (11.2%) had evidence of some time. Using questionnaire data provided on potential risk-factors, with confirmed household contact were greatest risk (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 4.82 [95%CI 3.45–6.72]). Higher rates seen in working Covid-19-facing areas (22.6% vs. 8.6% elsewhere) (aOR 2.47 [1.99–3.08])....
Abstract Under controlled irrigation, corn plants grown in large containers were subjected to water deficits one of nine periods during each two growing seasons. The first experiment (1965) differed from the second (1966) by somewhat different timing treatments and limiting soil fertility conditions. A significant grain yield reduction (12 15%) was observed after stress vegetative period at early ear shoot ovule development 1966. 53% associated with 75% silking 1965. In 3‐week silking,...
Abstract Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine immunogenicity varies between individuals, and immune responses correlate with efficacy. Using data from 1,076 participants enrolled in ChAdOx1 nCov-19 efficacy trials the United Kingdom, we found that inter-individual variation normalized antibody against SARS-CoV-2 spike its receptor-binding domain (RBD) at 28 days after first vaccination shows genome-wide significant association major histocompatibility complex...
When it became evident that the Experiment Station plots at Ames formed too narrow a base for development of correlations and regressions preharvest measurements yield, were established in fields cooperating Story County farmers to obtain moderately intensive records from specifically chosen give wide variation soil fertility yield.The present report is based upon these studies an attempt deter- mine most likely be value yield predic- tion, together with practical considerations methods...
Background Nosocomial spread of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been widely reported, but the transmission pathways among patients and healthcare workers (HCWs) are unclear. Identifying risk factors drivers for these nosocomial transmissions is critical infection prevention control interventions. The main aim our study was to quantify relative importance different SARS-CoV-2 in hospital setting. Methods findings This an observational cohort using data from 4...
Abstract Leaf structure and water content constitute major factors affecting the interaction of radiant energy with leaves in wavelength region from 800 to 2,600 m µ . Reflectivity, R λ , transmissivity, T » were measured this for three crop species (corn, Zea mays; soybean, Glycine max; sorghum, Sorghum bicolor). Absorptivity, A was calculated measurements The spectral responses (R», Tλ, or Aλ ) at six wavelengths (maxima minima reflectivity curve) regressed on relative leaf (RWC) specific...
<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> Destructive communication is a problem within the NHS; however previous research has focused on bullying. Rude, dismissive and aggressive (RDA) between doctors more widespread underinvestigated. We conducted mixed method study combining survey focus groups to describe extent of RDA doctors, its context subsequent impact. In total, 606 were surveyed across three teaching hospitals in England. Two structured held with at one hospital. 31% described being subject multiple...
Abstract In this report, we present live neutralisation titres against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant, compared with Victoria, Beta and Delta variants. Sera from day-28 post second-dose were obtained participants in the Com-COV2 study who had received a two-dose COVID-19 vaccination schedule either AstraZeneca (AZD1222) or Pfizer (BNT162b2) vaccines. There was substantial fall recipients of both AZD1222 BNT16b2 primary courses, evidence some failing to neutralise at all. This will likely lead...
Abstract Leaf and branch arrangement simulating various degrees of lodging produced significant changes in light interception yield soybeans. For the 3 years experiment, maximum penetration occurred with a moderate amount plant spread small but definite lodging. Generally, largest part outer 15 to 30 cm canopy. Greater penetration, resulting greater canopy having intensity above 150 ft‐c, generally resulted yields. A photographic technique involving evaluation leaf area sun was closely...
Abstract A study was conducted to determine the pattern of light interception and distribution in a field soybean community. Light occurred primarily at periphery canopy.
