Low-Distortion Sinewave Generation Method Using Arbitrary Waveform Generator
This paper describes algorithms for generating a low-distortion single-tone signal, for testing ADCs, using an arbitrary waveform generator (AWG). The AWG consists of DSP (or waveform memory) and DAC, and the ...

Changes in the transcript levels of microtubule-associated protein MAP65-1 during reorientation of cortical microtubules in azuki bean epicotyls
The relation between orientation of cortical microtubules and the transcript levels of a 65 kDa microtubule-associated protein (VaMAP65-1) was investigated along epicotyls of azuki bean (Vigna angularis) seedling...

Transient increase in the transcript levels of γ-tubulin complex genes during reorientation of cortical microtubules by gravity in azuki bean (Vigna angularis) epicotyls
By hypergravity treatment, the percentage of cells with transverse microtubules was decreased, while that with longitudinal microtubules was increased in azuki bean (Vigna angularis) epicotyls. The expression of ...

Hypergravity induces reorientation of cortical microtubules and modifies growth anisotropy in azuki bean epicotyls
We examined the changes in the orientation of cortical microtubules during the hypergravity-induced modification of growth anisotropy (inhibition of elongation growth and promotion of lateral growth) in azuki ...

Cellular basis for the automorphic curvature of rice coleoptiles on a three-dimensional clinostat: possible involvement of reorientation of cortical microtubules
Coleoptiles of rice (Oryza sativa L.) show a spontaneous (automorphic) curvature toward the caryopsis under microgravity conditions. The possible involvement of the reorientation of cortical microtubules in autom...

Cell wall changes involved in the automorphic curvature of rice coleoptiles under microgravity conditions in space
Seedlings of rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Koshihikari and cv. Tan-ginbozu) were cultivated on board the Space Shuttle STS-95 mission and changes in the morphology and the cell wall properties of coleoptiles were ana...

Graviperception in growth inhibition of plant shoots under hypergravity conditions produced by centrifugation is independent of that in gravitropism and may involve mechanoreceptors
Hypergravity caused by centrifugation inhibits elongation growth of shoots by decreasing the cell wall extensibility via suppression of xyloglucan breakdown as well as by the thickening of cell walls. The mech...

Growth and cell wall changes in rice roots during spaceflight
We analyzed the changes in growth and cell wall properties of roots of rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Koshihikari) grown for 68.5, 91.5, and 136 h during the Space Shuttle STS-95 mission. In space, most of rice roots ...

Effects of temperature on the cell wall and osmotic properties in dark-grown rice and azuki bean seedlings
The mechanism inducing the difference in growth rate under various temperature (10–50 °C) conditions was analyzed using rice and azuki bean seedlings. The growth rate of rice coleoptiles and azuki bean epicot...

Suppression of cell wall stiffening along coleoptiles of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings grown under osmotic stress conditions
Effects of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-induced osmotic stress on the mechanical properties of cell walls and the levels of their components were investigated along intact wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) coleoptiles. S...
