Phytoremediation is optimized when plants grow vigorously while accumulating the contaminant of interest.Here we show that sulphur supply alleviates aerial chlorosis and growth retardation caused by cesium stress without reducing cesium accumulation in Arabidopsis thaliana.This alleviation was not due to recovery of cesium-induced potassium decreas
This paper proposes a novel single vehicle tracking algorithm with enhanced reliability for automotive radar systems.The proposed algorithm overcomes the weaknesses of the b-0665-cr-bstr probabilistic data association filter (PDAF) in single-target tracking in clutter.The PDAF is successful in normal situations, but may fail to track a target owing
Protamines (PRM1 and PRM2) are small, arginine-rich, nuclear proteins that replace histones in the final stages of spermiogenesis, ensuring chromatin compaction and nuclear remodeling.Defects in protamination lead to increased DNA fragmentation and reduced male fertility.Since efficient sperm production requires the translocation of protamines from
Summary: Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs), the most abundant white blood cells, are recruited rapidly to sites of infection to exert potent anti-microbial activity.Information regarding their role in infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is limited.Here we report that addition of PMNs to HIV-infected cultures of human tonsil tissue
