Grain size is one of the most important factors determining rice yield. Several major QTLs for grain size control have been molecular characterized, and their roles in the regulation of grain size or weight have been explored but still remained obscure. In this study, we systematically examined the distributions of GW2, GS3, qSW5, qGL3, GS5, GW8, and TGW6 in 240 RIL of TD70 and Kasalath, compar...

AISI 304L austenitic stainless steel with different grain sizes of 0.5 -12 μm was obtained through the martensitic process. Corrosion behavior of different samples was investigated in a 0.5M HCl solution using open circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests. Also, the correlation between the grain size and pitting corrosion resistance was as...

Abstract: transformation temperature and different ferrite morphologies in one Nb-microalloyed (HSLA) steel has beeninvestigated. Three different austenite grain sizes were selected and cooled at two different cooling rates for obtainingaustenite to ferrite transformation temperature. Moreover, samples with specific austenite grain size have beenquenched, partially, for investigation on the mic...
