Efforts to anticipate how climate change will affect future food availability can benefit from understanding the impacts of changes to date. We found that in the cropping regions and growing seasons of most countries, with the important exception of the United States, temperature trends from 1980 to 2008 exceeded one standard deviation of historic year-to-year variability. Models that link yiel...

Structural chromosome aberrations are hallmarks of many human genetic diseases. The precise mapping of translocation breakpoints in tumors is important for identification of genes with altered levels of expression, prediction of tumor progression, therapy response, or length of disease-free survival, as well as the preparation of probes for detection of tumor cells in peripheral blood. Similarl...

This paper introduces the new OLdenburg LOgatome speech corpus (OLLO) and outlines design considerations during its creation. OLLO is distinct from previous ASR corpora as it specifically targets (1) the fair comparison between human and machine speech recognition performance, and (2) the realistic representation of intrinsic variabilities in speech that are significant for automatic speech rec...

According to the requirements of different fertilizers for early-maturing and late-maturing broccoli, this study aimed establish models formula fertilization apply them in recommendation by aid soil testing performed main broccoli-producing areas. In paper, based on effective functions nitrogen- (N), phosphorous- (P), potassium (K)-balanced broccoli two mature types, were established. The recom...

Ideally psychologists strive to act ethically within their professional roles. However, they are unlikely to achieve the highest standards of ethical behavior if they become overly legalistic or if they engage in behaviors that can be virtuous in a personal context but harmful in a professional relationship. Such problems may arise when some justify their less-than-optimal behavior based upon a...

We introduce a notion of cross-flips: local moves that transform a balanced (i.e., properly (d + 1)-colored) triangulation of a combinatorial d-manifold into another balanced triangulation. These moves form a natural analog of bistellar flips (also known as Pachner moves). Specifically, we establish the following theorem: any two balanced triangulations of a closed combinatorial d-manifold can ...

An oriented hypergraph is an oriented incidence structure that extends the concept of a signed graph. We introduce hypergraphic structures and techniques central to the extension of the circuit classification of signed graphs to oriented hypergraphs. Oriented hypergraphs are further decomposed into three families – balanced, balanceable, and unbalanceable – and we obtain a complete classificati...

In India, Pearl millet grown in 7.41 million ha area with an average production of 10.3 tonnes. Analysis 1030 soil samples from major pearl growing areas representing 10 districts indicated widespread multi-nutrient deficiency involving 2 to 6 nutrients including NK, NKS, NKB, NPKS, NKSZn and NPKSZnB. Incidence expansion such deficiencies Indian soils owing inadequate unbalanced nutrient input ...

Balanced fertilizer management promotes plant growth, enhances produce quality, minimizes inputs, and reduces negative environmental impacts. Wax gourd (Benincasa hispida) is an important vegetable crop species in China South Asia. Two nutrition options, NPK the natural mineral polyhalite, were tested, separately combined, with aim of enhancing wax yield quality simultaneously to increase nutri...
