The qTSN positive effect on panicle and flag leaf size of rice is associated with an early down-regulation of tillering

The qTSN4 was identified as rice QTL (Quantitative Traits Locus) increasing total spikelet number per panicle and flag leaf area but potentially reducing panicle number depending on the environment.So far, this trade-off was mainly observed at grain maturity and not specifically studied in details, limiting the apprehension of the agronomic interes

Importance of basal boundary conditions in transient simulations: case study of a surging marine-terminating glacier on Austfonna, Svalbard

We assess the importance of basal boundary conditions for transient simulations of Basin 3, Austfonna ice cap between January 1995 and December 2011 and for the surge starting in 2012 by carrying out simulations with the full-Stokes model Elmer/Ice and the vertically-integrated model BISICLES.Time-varying surface mass-balance data from the regional

Checklist for the preparation and review of pain clinical trial publications: a pain-specific supplement to CONSORT

Abstract.Introduction:.Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard when assessing the efficacy of interventions because randomization of treatment assignment minimizes bias in treatment effect estimates.However, if RCTs are not performed with methodological rigor, many opportunities for bias in treatment effect estimates rema

AdS5 compactifications with punctures in massive IIA supergravity

Abstract We find AdS5 solutions holographically dual to compactifications of six- dimensional N $$ mathcal{N} $$ = (1, 0) supersymmetric field theories on Riemann surfaces with punctures.We simplify a previous analysis Ceramic Fuse of supersymmetric AdS5 IIA solutions, and with a suitable Ansatz we find explicit solutions organized in three classes
