Open AccessA new diagnostic technique for identifying Angiostrongylus spp. larvae in intermediate snail species by examining the buccal cavity
Angiostrongyliasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by the rat lungworm Angiostrongylus cantonensis. The intermediate hosts of A. cantonensis are gastropods, and snail species such as Pomacea canaliculata p...

Target tracking methods based on a signal-to-noise ratio model
In traditional target tracking methods, the angle error and range error are often measured by the empirical value, while observation noise is a constant. In this paper, the angle error and range error are anal...

Pressure characteristics of landslide-generated impulse waves
The destructiveness of impulse waves generated by landslides (IWL) originates from the wave’s movement and load, wherein the impulse wave’s load is the major cause of sub-aerial building damage and casualties....

Low complexity robust adaptive beamforming for general-rank signal model with positive semidefinite constraint
We propose a low complexity robust beamforming method for the general-rank signal model, to combat against mismatches of the desired signal array response and the received signal covariance matrix. The propose...

Open AccessProtein phosphorylation differs significantly among ontogenetic phases in Malus seedlings
Although protein phosphorylation is an important post-translational modification affecting protein function and metabolism, dynamic changes in this process during ontogenesis remain unexplored in woody angiosp...

Differences in Gene Expression and Regulation during Ontogenetic Phase Change in Apple Seedlings
A woody perennial plant has to undergo a gradual and continuous process of transition from juvenility to reproductive maturity. To better understand the underlying mechanism of ontogenesis, our aim in this stu...

Inositol-requiring protein 1α signaling pathway is activated in the temporal cortex of patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy
Accumulating evidence suggests that repeated seizures could induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Inositol-requiring protein 1α (IRE1α) is a vital pro-apoptotic molecule in ER stress, but it remains unclea...

Identification of markers linked to major gene loci involved in determination of fruit shape index of apples (Malus domestica)
Fruit shape index (FSI) is one of the most important traits in apple. In this study, the inheritance of a FSI (ratio between height and diameter at the widest point of the fruit) was analysed in a hybrid popul...

Active Sites in Oxide-Promoted Metal Catalysts – Evidence for the Significance of Perimeter Sites in AlOx and MnOx/Ni(lll) Catalysts
MnOx (0.2 < × < 0.5) and AlOx (0.5 < × < 1.1) /Ni(lll) model catalysts were prepared by depositing the oxides onto clean Ni(111) surfaces under ultrahigh vacuum conditions, with the average oxide cove...
