Open AccessImpact of human activities on subaqueous topographic change in Lingding Bay of the Pearl River estuary, China, during 1955–2013
Estuaries have been sites of intensive human activities during the past century. Tracing the evolution of subaqueous topography in estuaries on a decadal timescale enables us to understand the effects of human...

All fiber supercontinuum light source using photonic crystal fibers pumped by nanosecond fiber laser pulses
A novel compact supercontinuum (SC) source using the single mode photonic crystal fibers (PCF) pumped with an all fiber MOPA fiber laser is demonstrated experimentally. A bandwidth of 700 nm is achieved by ope...

Gene transfer of pro-IL-18 and IL-1β converting enzyme cDNA induces potent antitumor effects in L1210 cells
We report in a murine model of acute lymphoid leukemia L1210 the potent antitumor efficiency of a combinatorial delivery of pro-IL-18 gene modified L1210 (Lp18) and IL-1β converting enzyme (ICE) gene modified L12...

Embryogenesis in Haploid Cell Culture of Maize
hybrids in maize show great potential for yield increase, however, they can only be obtained by combining fine inbred lines, which takes long time. As the pure line can quickly be selected from the inbred line...
