The primary industry has achieved growth after a short-term decline since the implementation of the Grain for Green project in Ansai County. Relatively rapid growth has been achieved in the secondary industry owning to fast development of the petroleum industry. The tertiary industry has developed fast ...
This paper addresses the need for reliable measurement guidelines for organizations or entities in the turbulent environment of our era of data deluge. Based upon conceptual and empirical research in bibliometrics, we suggest an analytical approach to benchmarking the technology management of surprising ...
The public research centers were created to research activities and knowledge generation. Some studies, around the world, have been developed about this problematic and the opportunities for technology transfer, from these institutes. In the Peruvian case, until now, the national institutes of research ...
The combination of low density SNP arrays and DNA pooling is a fast and cost effective approach to genotyping that opens up basic genomics to a range of new applications and studies. However we have identified significant limitations in the existing approach to calculating allele frequencies with DNA ...
Background Overexpression of Met tyrosine kinase receptor is associated with poor prognosis. Overexpression, and particularly MET amplification, are predictive of response to Met-specific therapy in preclinical models. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues is ...
Maritime Situational Awareness (MSA), the capability of understanding events, circumstances and activities within and impacting the maritime environment, can be greatly improved by the automatic identification and classification of vessel activity. Enhancing coverage of existing technologies such as ...
Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) usually relies on data structures built upon the words to be disambiguated. This is a time-consuming process that requires a huge computational effort. In this paper, we propose an approach to automatically build a generic sense inventory (called iSC) to be used as a ...
This work deals with the retrieval of distribution of seabed vegetation cover (essentially Posidonia Oceanica) in the coastal waters (1-10m) of the Gulf of Oristano. A physical approach was used to derive bottom cover map from airborne and satellite imagery (MIVIS, KOMPSAT-2 and RapidEye) acquired in ...
We investigated global patterns of variation in 157 whole genome sequences of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a free-living and seafood associated marine bacterium. Pandemic clones, responsible for recent outbreaks of gastroenteritis in humans have spread globally. However, there are oceanic gene pools, one ...
Background Production of carp dominates world aquaculture. More than 1.1 million tonnes of rohu carp, Labeo rohita (Hamilton), were produced in 2010. Aeromonas hydrophila is a bacterial pathogen causing aeromoniasis in rohu, and is a major problem for carp production worldwide. There is a need to better ...
The variable domain 1 (VD1) domain of the control region and a small segment of the rrnaL gene of the F mtDNA type were sequenced and analyzed in 174 specimens of Mytilus galloprovincialis. Samples were collected from eight locations in four Central-Eastern (CE) Mediterranean countries (Italy, Croatia, ...
The chemical diversity associated with marine natural products (MNP) is unanimously acknowledged as the “blue gold” in the urgent quest for new drugs. Consequently, a significant increase in the discovery of MNP published in the literature has been observed in the past decades, particularly from marine ...
Probiotics play an important role in growth increment, immune enhancement and stress mitigation in fish. Increasing temperature is a major concern in present aquaculture practices as it markedly deteriorates the health condition and reduces the growth in fish. In order to explore the possibilities of ...
Many seabirds including penguins are adapted to long periods of fasting, particularly during parts of the reproductive cycle and during moult. However, the influence of fasting on the gastrointestinal (GI) microbiota has not been investigated in seabirds. Therefore, the present study aimed to examine ...
Genetic drift and non-random mating seldom influence species with large breeding populations and high dispersal potential, characterized by unstructured gene pool and panmixia at a scale lower than the minimum dispersal range of individuals. In the present study, a set of nine microsatellite markers ...
Recent studies have clearly shown the importance of polyunsaturated fatty acids (as essential fatty acids) and their nutritional value for human health. In this review, various sources, nutritional properties, and metabolism routes of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) are introduced. ...
Background A higher prevalence of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) occurs in younger adults in Asia. We used Stomach Age to examine the different mechanisms of CAG between younger adults and elderly individuals, and established a simple model of cancer risk that can be applied to CAG surveillance. Methods Stomach ...
An enviromental-random effect over a deterministic population mo-del, a resource ({it e.g.}, a fish stock) is introduced. It is assumed that the harvest activity is concentrated at a non predetermined sequence of instants, at which the abundance reaches a certain predetermined level, for then to fall ...
Rhogocytes are pore cells scattered among the connective tissue of different body parts of gastropods and other molluscs, with great variation in their number, shape and size. They are enveloped by a lamina of extracellular matrix. Their most characteristic feature is the “slit apparatus”, local invaginations ...
Across the globe, species distributions are changing in response to climate change and land use change. In parts of the southeastern United States, climate change is expected to result in the poleward range expansion of black mangroves (Avicennia germinans) at the expense of some salt marsh vegetation. ...
