In this paper we have introduced the concept of (γ, γ′)-preopen sets in topological space.

Learning Content Management System (LCMS) supports e-learning applications with storage and efficient access for e-Learning Objects (LOs). In order to foster LCMS adoption by the e-learning community, an important issue is to bring course modelling to the realm of the LCMS. In this paper, we describe the Repository of Objects with Semantic Access (ROSA) project. ROSA is a LCMS that provides use...

To determine the kinetics of tissue macrophage and microgwere observed. Alveolar macrophage engraftment was evident by 2 months and had increased to 61% of total tissue lial engraftment after bone marrow (BM) transplantation, we have developed a model using the ROSA 26 mouse. macrophages at 1 year posttransplantation. The kinetics of liver Kupffer cell engraftment were similar to those seen in ...

Integrative taxonomy has resolved the species status of the potentially invasive Ceratitis rosa Karsch into two separate species with distinct ecological requirements: C. rosa "lowland type" and the newly described species Ceratitis quilicii De Meyer, Mwatawala & Virgilio sp. nov. "highland type". Both species are tephritid pests threatening the production of horticultural crops in Africa and b...

UNLABELLED N,N-8-demethyl-8-amino-d-riboflavin dimethyltransferase (RosA) catalyses the final dimethylation of 8-demethyl-8-amino-d-riboflavin (AF) to the antibiotic roseoflavin (RoF) in Streptomyces davawensis. In the present study, we solved the X-ray structure of RosA, and determined the binding properties of substrates and products. Moreover, we used steady-state and rapid reaction kinetic ...

Suspension cultures were incubated in the presence and absence of gibberellic acid (GA(3)) in an attempt to define a new experimental system for study of the molecular action of gibberellins upon growth. Unlike many suspension cultures, an auxin-independent green clone from spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) and an auxin-dependent line of "Paul's Scarlet" rose (Rosa sp.) were promoted in expansion ...

Lateral branching plays an important role in the elaboration of adult plants architecture. Herein, we adopted a modified AFLP approach combined with a degenerate primer amplification to identify and isolate in the underinvestigated ornamental species H. rosa-sinensis an orthologous element of the MAX2 gene (More Axillary Branches), which acts downstream of the branching inhibition signaling pat...
