Quantification of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi root colonization in wheat, tomato, and leek using absolute qPCR
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form symbioses with most terrestrial plants and are known to have a positive effect on plant growth and health....

Neuron numbers link innovativeness with both absolute and relative brain size in birds
A longstanding issue in biology is whether the intelligence of animals can be predicted by absolute or relative brain size. However, progress has...

Absolute quantification of single-base m6A methylation in the mammalian transcriptome using GLORI
N 6 -methyladenosine (m 6 A) is the most abundant RNA modification in mammalian cells and the best-studied epitranscriptomic mark. Despite the...

Tobacco exposure, but not aging, shifts the frequency of peripheral blood B cell subpopulations
Several disturbances in T-cell mediated immunity have been described during aging, but immunosenescence of the B-cell compartment is less well...

The Time-Frequency Spectral Analysis and Applications in Bioinformatics
In signal processing, time-frequency analysis encompasses a set of techniques that study a signal across both time and frequency domains... -
Frequency-dependent selection of neoantigens fosters tumor immune escape and predicts immunotherapy response
Cancer is an evolutionary process shaped by selective pressure from the microenvironments. However, recent studies reveal that certain tumors undergo...

Whole-genome SNP allele frequency differences between Tibetan and Large white pigs reveal genes associated with skeletal muscle growth
BackgroundThe skeletal muscle growth rate and body size of Tibetan pigs (TIB) are lower than Large white pigs (LW). However, the underlying genetic...

Fertigation frequency is a useful tool for nitrate management in intensive open-field agriculture
The main source of nitrogen for most cultivated plants is nitrate. Agriculture has overused this nutrient, resulting in serious environmental...

Measuring frequency-dependent selection in culture
The frequency of a cultural trait can influence its tendency to be copied. We develop a maximum-likelihood method to measure such frequency-dependent...

Applied Time-Frequency Control in Agricultural Machines
Automation and intelligent technology can help agricultural equipment realize better performance and operation economy, improved safety, and... -
Integration of taxa abundance and occurrence frequency to identify key gut bacteria correlated to clinics in Crohn’s disease
Bacteria abundance alternation in the feces or mucosa of Crohn’s disease (CD) patients has long been applied to identify potential biomarkers for...

FCMEDriver: Identifying Cancer Driver Gene by Combining Mutual Exclusivity of Embedded Features and Optimized Mutation Frequency Score
Efficiently identifying cancer driver genes is critical to drug design, cancer diagnosis and treatment. Current unsupervised cancer driver gene... -
Novel tag-based method for measuring tailbeat frequency and variations in amplitude in fish
The tailbeat frequency (TBF) together with tailbeat amplitude (TBA) of fish are tightly correlated with swimming speed. In addition, these parameters...
