Identifying genetic variations or treatments Cayenne Pepper (Capsicum) that confer greater resistance to drought is paramount to ensuring sustainable crop productivity.Accurate and reproducible measurement of drought stress symptoms can be achieved via automated, image-based phenotyping.Many phenotyping platforms are either cost-prohibitive, requir
Nanotubes were prepared by self-assembly of the copolymer using co-solvent evaporation method.The biocompatibility of the nanotubes was assessed in comparison with spherical micelles and filomicelles prepared from poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PEG-PLGA) and poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(L-lactide) (PEG-PLA), respectively.Several
It is important to evaluate the deformation and failure of sandstone in the foundation engineering of coast, river bank and lake shore.While the deformation and failure of sandstone is a comprehensive result of energy release and dissipation, and energy release is the internal reason which leads to global failure of the sandstone.The experimental F
Objectives: Cleft lip and palate (CLP) is the most common congenital anomaly of the head and neck region.The upper airway in CLP patients is affected by retarded maxillary growth.Small size of the nasopharynx can also lead to mouth breathing.This study aimed to compare the size of nasopharynx and adenoids in non-syndromic unilateral CLP (NSUCLP) pa
