Viral insect-borne plant pathogens have devastating impacts in agroecosystems. Vector-borne are often transmitted by generalist insects that move between non-crop and crop hosts. Insect vectors can wide diet breadths, but it is unknown which hosts serve as pathogen reservoirs host harbours the highest density of vectors. In Pacific Northwest USA, pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum) a key virus vect...

A subset of vertices in a graph is called total dominating set if every vertex the adjacent to at least one this set. minimal it does not properly contain another In paper, we study graphs whose all sets have same size, referred as well-totally-dominated (WTD) graphs. We first show that WTD with bounded domination number can be recognized polynomial time. Then focus on two. case, characterize t...

Atmospheric pressure radio-frequency (rf) capacitive micro-discharges are of interest due to emerging applications, especially in the bio-medical field. A previous global model did not consider high-power phenomena such as sheath multiplication, thus limiting its applicability to the lower power range. To overcome this, we use one-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of atmospheric He...

• Generic stability • Orthogonality to Γ • Stable domination. (In fact, after naming parameters, one gets domination by the generic type of k for some n.) Let X → Y be a definable surjection of interpretable sets. We will show that the induced map X̂ → Ŷ on the stable completions (space of generically stable types) is surjective. Using this, we can mimic the proof from Hrushovski and Loeser that...

background: bone morphogenetic protein 2 (bmp- 2) belongs to the tgf-β superfamily of proteins and plays an important role in the development of bone and cartilage. bmp- 2 is also associated with maintenance and repair of damaged bone. recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhbmp- 2) is now produced by genetic engineering techniques and used in treatment of thin bone fractures in the j...
