Bloom thinning is an important practice that influences the profitability of orchard. Hence, we assessed effect chemical bloom on efficiency and fruit quality ‘RubyS’ apples. Lime sulfur was applied as a agent at 1, 1 + 3, 2 4 days after full (DAFB), non-bloom trees were used controls. Compared to control treatments DAFB DAFB, application 3 greatly decreased number fruits per cluster in both te...

Semi-supervised learning (SSL) uses unlabeled data to compensate for the scarcity of annotated images and lack method generalization unseen domains, two usual problems in medical segmentation tasks. In this work, we propose POPCORN, a novel combining consistency regularization pseudo-labeling designed image segmentation. The proposed framework high-level constrain our model use similar latent f...

Implementation of the Bloom filter for plagiarism detection in full text document has a problem on how to identify the same terms from different location. Location identifier can be hashed in offline mode since the collection is static. By this approach, the computation speed of the Bloom filter can be improved. Two new Bloom filter architectures are proposed in this study to overcome the probl...

Introduction: Natural rewards are essential for survival. However, drug-seeking behaviors can be maladaptive and endanger survival. The present study was conducted to enhance our understanding of how animals respond to food and morphine as natural and drug rewards, respectively, in a conditioned place preference (CPP) paradigm. Methods: We designed a protocol to induce food CPP and compare it ...

Ongoing improvements in Computational Biology (CB) research have generated massive amounts of Protein-Protein Interactions (PPIs) data set. In this regards, the availability of PPI data for several organisms provoke the discovery of computational methods for measurements, analysis, modeling, comparisons, clustering and alignments of biological data networks. Nevertheless, fixed network comparis...

Cytological analysis of microsporogenesis in 72 popcorn plants, comprising nine from the original population (CMS-43, S(0)) and 63 from seven cycles of self-fertilization (S(1) to S(7)), one plant of S(0) generation (plant 2) was identified with B chromosomes. The number of B chromosomes varied from two to three in the same anther. The pattern of chromosome pairing and meiotic behavior of Bs we...

O objetivo foi avaliar o crescimento das plantas, produção de raízes batata-doce (Ipomoea batatas) e grãos milho pipoca (Zea mays) em sistema cultivo solteiro consorciado. Foram avaliadas quatro cultivares uma blocos casualizados com três repetições condições campo. No solteiro, a foram espaçadas 75 cm entre linhas. consorciado, plantio da no centro linhas pipoca. A adubação realizada cama fran...

We study the phase diagram of (large-${N}_{c}$) QCD using a simplistic holographic hard-wall model with dynamical scalar field and homogeneous Ansatz representing smeared instanton/baryon density. The resulting is qualitatively consistent expectations, including mesonic, baryonic, quarkyonic, quark-gluon plasma phase. As in other models, we also find baryonic popcorn transition, which appears a...
