salinity is one of the most important limiting factors for crops, because of most agronomic and horticultural crops are sensitive to salinity. on the other hands, considerable lands of the world were affected by salinity and they are increasing day by day. an experiment was conducted with five levels of irrigation water salinity in soilless culture and greenhouse condition to evaluate the effec...

Salinity is a dominant obstacle to the proper germination of seeds, growth seedlings, and, consequently, production crops. The priming seeds with different treating agents can efficiently impart salinity tolerance. Kidney bean nutritious and popular vegetable crop in world. Literature shows that salt stress negatively disturbs kidney beans. In present research, we investigated potentiality sali...

There are multiple mechanisms by which cells evade TGF-b–mediated growth inhibitory effects. In this report, we describe a novel mechanism by which cells become resistant to TGF-b–mediated growth suppression. Although having all the components of the TGF-b signaling pathway, different cell lines, RL, HaCaT, and BJAB, have different sensitivities toward TGF-b–induced growth suppression. The TGF-...

Compact and healthy young plants increase crop production and improve vegetable quality. Adverse climatic conditions and shading can cause young plants to become elongated and spindly. We investigated the effects of night break (NB) treatments on tomato plants using red light (RL) with an intensity of 20 μmol·m(2)·s(-1). Tomato plants were subjected to NB treatments with different frequencies r...

There are multiple mechanisms by which cells evade TGF-β-mediated growth inhibitory effects. In this report, we describe a novel mechanism by which cells become resistant to TGF-β-mediated growth suppression. Although having all the components of the TGF-β signaling pathway, different cell lines, RL, HaCaT, and BJAB, have different sensitivities toward TGF-β-induced growth suppression. The TGF-...

Adrenal incidentalomas (AIs) are mostly benign and nonsecretory. Management algorithms lack sensitivity when assessing malignant potential, although functional status is easier to assess. We present a subject whose AI was a retroperitoneal leiomyosarcoma (RL). Case Presentation. A woman on warfarin with SLE and the antiphospholipid syndrome, presented with left loin pain. She was normotensive a...

Reinforcement Learning (RL) paradigm aims to develop algorithms that allow to train an agent to optimally achieve a goal with minimal feedback information about the desired behavior, which is not precisely specified. Scalar rewards are returned to the agent as response to its actions endorsing or opposing them. RL algorithms have been succesfully applied to robot control design. The extension o...

many studies on cold environments have been developed over the past two decades. highmountain freshwater presents high variability of nutrients and chemico-physical parameters, showing variations of ph, oxygen concentration, metals and temperature throughout the year. national park of sierra nevada (granada, spain) (37°032 n 03°182 w), has almost 40 lakes that are reported to be both endemic an...

Effective, safe, and affordable rabies vaccines are still being sought. Newcastle disease virus (NDV), an avian paramyxovirus, has shown promise as a vaccine vector for mammals. Here, we generated a recombinant avirulent NDV La Sota strain expressing the rabies virus glycoprotein (RVG) and evaluated its potential to serve as a vaccine against rabies. The recombinant virus, rL-RVG, retained its ...
