Citric-acid-derived thermally cross-linked biodegradable elastomers (CABEs) have recently received significant attention in various biomedical applications, including tissue-engineering orthopedic devices, bioimaging and implant coatings. However, citric-acid-derived photo-cross-linked biodegradable elastomers are rarely reported. Herein, we report a novel photo-cross-linked biodegradable elast...

One could think of many reasons where transforming a data set at hand to a lowdimensional space might be desirable, e.g. it makes the data easier to manipulate with and requires less computational resource. It is, however, important to perform such transformations in a principled way because any kind of dimension reduction might lead to loss of information, and it is crucial that the algorithm ...

A cross between the sweet cherry (Prunus avium) cultivars 'Wanhongzhu' and 'Lapins' was performed to create a mapping population suitable for the construction of a linkage map. The specific-locus amplified fragment (SLAF) sequencing technique used as a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) discovery platform and generated 701 informative genotypic assays; these, along with 16 microsatellites (SS...
