GENOMIC PATTERNS OF STRAIN-SPECIFIC GENETIC STRUCTURE, LINKAGE, AND SELECTION ACROSS FALL ARMYWORM POPULATIONS

Genomic patterns of strain-specific genetic structure, linkage, and selection across fall armyworm populations

Abstract Background Molecular genetic approaches have become vital to understanding the evolutionary processes that act on insect pest populations.From mapping Windsock Pole Lights the development of resistance to monitoring and predicting pest movement, genomic tools can inform and enhance pest management programs.Here, we used whole genome sequen

Exploring a balance between strength and ductility of hexagonal BN nanoplatelet reinforced ZK61 magnesium composite

The practical applications of magnesium (Mg) alloys are usually beset by their relatively low strength and limited ductility.Herein we attempt to fabricate hexagonal BN nanoplatelet (BNNP) reinforced ZK61 magnesium composites using a combination of spark plasma sintering and friction NIN JIOM stir processing.The resulting composites exhibit microst

Is there a utility for QRS dispersion in clinical practice?

Prognostic markers derived from standard ECG have always been seductive.Increased dispersion of durations of the P wave, of the QRS complex, or of the QT interval has been associated with the risk of atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias, sudden cardiac death, as well as with a general negative prognosis in various settings.However, these ma

An innovative Hardware-In-the-Loop rig for linear PTO testing

This paper describes the activities related to the design, manufacturing and commissioning of an innovative Hardware-In-the-Loop test rig for linear Power Take-Off testing.The rig is characterised by a fully coupled architecture in which three electro-mechanical units integrating a ballscrew and an electrical machine can actuate on a linear axis, e
