The genus Allium is a rich source of steroidal saponins, and its medicinal properties have been attributed to these bioactive compounds. The saponin compounds with diverse structures play a pivotal role in Allium's defense mechanism. Despite numerous studies on the occurrence and chemical structure of steroidal saponins, their biosynthetic pathway in Allium species is poorly understood. The mon...

In order to screen for putative candidate genes linked to tomato fruit weight and to sugar or acid content, genes and QTLs involved in fruit size and composition were mapped. Genes were selected among EST clones in the TIGR tomato EST database (http://www.tigr.org/tdb/tgi/lgi/) or corresponded to genes preferentially expressed in the early stages of fruit development. These clones were located ...

We present a workflow for the automatic transformation of scholarly literature to a Linked Open Data (LOD) compliant knowledge base to address Task 2 of the Semantic Publishing Challenge 2016. In this year’s task, we aim to extract various contextual information from full-text papers using a text mining pipeline that integrates LOD-based Named Entity Recognition (NER) and triplification of the ...

There has been an exponential growth and availability of both structured and unstructured data that can be leveraged to provide better emergency management in case of natural disasters and humanitarian crises. This paper is an extension of a semantics-based web application for safety check, which uses of semantic web technologies to extract different kinds of relevant data about a natural disas...

A central component in many applications is the underlying data management layer. In Data-Web applications, the central component of this layer is the triple store. It is thus evident that finding the most adequate store for the application to develop is of crucial importance for individual projects as well as for data integration on the Data Web in general. In this paper, we propose a generic ...

Although the list of completed genome sequencing projects has expanded rapidly, sequencing and analysis of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) remain a primary tool for discovery of novel genes in many eukaryotes and a key element in genome annotation. The TIGR Gene Indices (http://www.tigr.org/tdb/tgi) are a collection of 77 species-specific databases that use a highly refined protocol to analyze g...

Linked Data sources on the Web use a wide range of different vocabularies to represent data describing the same type of entity. For some types of entities, like people or bibliographic record, common vocabularies have emerged that are used by multiple data sources. But even for representing data of these common types, different user communities use different competing common vocabularies. Linke...

Amaç: COVİD-19 pandemi sürecinde diş kliniklerinde dezenfeksiyon, antisepsi ve sterilizasyona yönelik tedbir uygulamalar hakkında hekimlerinin bakış açıları SARS-CoV2 hakkındaki farkındalık düzeylerini araştırmak amaçlanmıştır.
 Gereç Yöntem: Türk Diş Hekimleri Birliği (TDB)’ne bağlı 25000 hekimi çalışmanın evrenini oluşturmuş; kesitsel olarak tanımlanan verileri, Haziran 2021-Ekim 2021 ta...

Despite the vaccine Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guérin is used worldwide, tuberculosis (TB) remains the first killer among infectious diseases. An effective vaccine is urgently required. DNA vaccine has shown prophylactic as well as therapeutic effects against TB, while its weak immunogenicity hinders the application. As a strong inducer of Th1-biased immune response, DMT, consisting ...

Triple stores are the backbone of increasingly many Data Web applications. It is thus evident that the performance of those stores is mission critical for individual projects as well as for data integration on the Data Web in general. Consequently, it is of central importance during the implementation of any of these applications to have a clear picture of the weaknesses and strengths of curren...
