Blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) leaves, a residual biomass of pruning, are a rich source ofpolyphenols, fiber, and minerals. In this study, blueberry leaf powder (BBLP) was incorporatedinto wheat/soy flour-based cookies to de...

Sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) is a fruit of increasing economic importance though it is less significant than other stone fruit species such as peach. Cherry has received little attention concerning nitrogen (N) uptake ...

We describe a new molecular mechanism of cell death by excitotoxicity mediated through nuclear transcription factor κB (NFκB) in rat embryonic cultures of dopaminergic neurons. Treatment of mesencephalic cultures with ...

Abstract In competitive sports and other role-based team activities, selecting a squad with strong mutual compatibility is critical for coordinated execution and overall performance. This paper proposes a compatibility-a...

Temperate deciduous fruit trees survive winter temperatures by entering a dormant phase in their aerial meristematic organs. Release from bud dormancy occurs after chill requirements (CR) have been satisfied, whereas bud...

ABSTRACT Maconellicoccus hirsutus (Hemiptera, Pseudococcidae), a species of economic interest, especially for fruit plants, is expanding on the South American continent. Information about the population dynamics of this ...

There is currently an urgent need for new anthelmintic agents due to increasing resistance to the limited available drugs. The chalcone scaffold is a privileged structure for developing new drugs and has been shown to ex...

Urban waste management should ensure minimal environmental impact and local context adaptation. We present an assessment of the municipal Recycling Centre in Buenos Aires City (Centre), which processes recyclable materia...

The evolution of metropolitan cities and increasing travel demand impose stringent requirements on traffic assignment methods. Multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) approaches outperform traditional methods in modeli...

Space–time prism (STP) modeling offers a theoretical base for various person-based space–time accessibility measures. It has been challenging to construct STPs in multimodal transportation networks because of the vas...

IntroductionWe evaluated whether a generative adversarial network (GAN)-based super-resolution (SR) radiomics pipeline could improve the pre-fine-needle aspiration (FNA) prediction of nondiagnostic (Bethesda I) outcomes ...

Maternal immune activation (MIA) can result from a variety of maternal inflammatory factors, including metabolic disorders, nutritional deficits, infections, and psychosocial stress. MIA has been consistently recognized ...

Growing evidence has directly linked the gastrointestinal tract, gut microbiota, and central nervous system, forming the gut-brain axis, a process that has been described as a key mechanism in regulating neurological pro...

In response to the limitations of traditional planning methods for Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs), which heavily rely on predefined map representations and neglect kinematic feasibility, this paper proposes a novel k...

Automated program repair often relies on syntactic transformations, generating large numbers of fix candidates whose correctness must be validated. Due to the combinatorial explosion of candidate combinations, existing t...

BACKGROUND: We recently described FastTree, a tool for inferring phylogenies for alignments with up to hundreds of thousands of sequences. Here, we describe improvements to FastTree that improve its accuracy without sacr...

We are given a large database of customer transactions. Each transaction consists of items purchased by a customer in a visit. We present an efficient algorithm that generates all significant association rules between it...

PhyML is a phylogeny software based on the maximum-likelihood principle. Early PhyML versions used a fast algorithm performing nearest neighbor interchanges to improve a reasonable starting tree topology. Since the origi...

The purpose of this study is to introduce new design-criteria for next-generation hyperparameter optimization software. The criteria we propose include (1) define-by-run API that allows users to construct the parameter s...

In this paper, we solve some benchmarks of Set Covering Problem and Equality Constrained Set Covering or Set Partitioning Problem. The resolution techniques used to solve them were Ant Colony Optimization algorithms and ...

Este estudio se llevó a cabo con el propósito de evaluar la factibilidad tanto técnica como económica de la producción de uva cultivar Cabernet Sauvignon bajo el sistema biodinámico en el Valle de Limarí. Los obje...

La familia Polydolopidae está compuesta por marsupiales paleógenos de Patagonia argentina, Chile y Península Antártica, los cuales poseían tamaños estimados entre 70g y 3,5kg. Para resolver las relaciones entre los...

Our objective was to characterize a resilient talar located within a suburban forest that has been invaded by exotic vegetation, in order to identify the patterns and processes currently affecting the native woody specie...

Este estudio evaluó los efectos de cuatro sustratos de suelo, dos sistemas de irrigación y tres intensidades de poda de las hojas sobre el desarrollo de la planta, producción de biomasa y contenido de quercetina-3-sul...
