Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is increasingly being used as a reverse genetics tool to study functions of specific Developer plant genes.It is especially useful for plants, such as soybean, that are recalcitrant to transformation.Previously, Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) was shown to be an effective VIGS vector for soybean.However, the reporte
Vacuum birefringence at x-ray free-electron lasers
We study the perspectives of measuring the phenomenon of vacuum birefringence predicted by quantum electrodynamics using an x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) alone.We devise an experimental scheme allowing two consecutive XFEL pulses to collide under a finite angle, and Accessories thus act as both pump and probe field for the effect.The signature o
The non-specific matrix thalamus facilitates the cortical information processing modes relevant for conscious awareness
Summary: The neurobiological mechanisms of arousal and anesthesia remain poorly understood.Recent evidence highlights the key role of interactions between the cerebral cortex and the diffusely projecting matrix thalamic nuclei.Here, we interrogate these processes in a whole-brain corticothalamic neural mass model endowed with targeted and diffusely
Strategic Guidelines to Improve the Financing of State Higher Education Institutions in Ukraine
The article analyzes the condition and problems of the system for financing state higher education institutions in Ukraine as well as ways for its optimization.Undoubtedly, it is important to determine the role and significance of education in society in the period of globalization, marketization and transformation processes.An analysis of differen
SDF-MAN: Semi-Supervised Disparity Fusion with Multi-Scale Adversarial Networks
Refining raw disparity maps from different algorithms to exploit their complementary advantages is still challenging.Uncertainty estimation GLAD HAND,ACCESSORIES and complex disparity relationships among pixels limit the accuracy and robustness of existing methods and there is no standard method for fusion of different kinds of depth data.In this p
