Evaluating the impacts of refuge width on source-sink dynamics between transgenic and non-transgenic cotton
Resistance management for Bt-transgenic crops relies in part on the production of sufficient numbers of susceptible insects in non-toxic refuges. Simulation models suggested that source-sink dynamics could interact with the structure of refuges to impact the production of insects in these areas. We tested the hypothesis that altering isolation between refuges and transgenic cotton by manipulati...
متن کاملFructan as a New Carbohydrate Sink in Transgenic Potato Plants.
Fructans are polyfructose molecules that function as nonstructural storage carbohydrates in several plant species that are important crops. We have been studying plants for their ability to synthesize and degrade fructans to determine if this ability is advantageous. We have also been analyzing the ability to synthesize fructan in relation to other nonstructural carbohydrate storage forms like ...
متن کاملEx post evidence on adoption of transgenic crops: US soybeans
Transgenic crops offer a complex new technology that is not universally dominant over alternatives. Instead, adoption decisions are conditional on incentives associated with alternative technologies and local conditions. These characteristics imply that transgenic crops can be expected to be adopted on a wide scale in existing cultural areas, if incentives are appropriate. Further, considerable...
متن کاملFood Recognition Using Consensus Vocabularies
Food recognition is an interesting and challenging problem with applications in medical, social and anthropological research areas. The high variability of food images makes the recognition task difficult for current state-of-the-art methods. It has been proved that the exploitation of multiple features to capture complementary aspects of the image contents is useful to improve the discriminati...
متن کاملOn Noncommutative Involutive Divisions
Buchberger’s algorithm for computing a Gröbner basis solves the ideal membership problem over commutative polynomial rings. In the early 1990’s, an alternative to this algorithm was found, namely the involutive basis algorithm, which provides a Gröbner basis with extra combinatorial properties. Buchberger’s work was generalised to noncommutative polynomial rings by Bergman and Mora during the 1...
