The present study was carried out on Paulownia tomentosa (6), Paulownia elongate (4), Paulownia fortunei (5) and Paulownia fortunei x tomentosa (1) origins at Kastamonu Forest Nursery. The seedling height growth (SH), root collar diameter (RCD), dry root percentage (DRP) and seedling percentage (SP) of one-year old seedlings of the origins were studied for comparing growth performance of the sp...

Loblolly pine (Pinus taedu L.) seedling height, root collar diameter (RCD) and the specific activities of three sucrose metabolizing enzymes, namely, sucrose spthase (SS), acid invertase, and neutral invertase, were measured to assess seedling responses to transplant stress. Bare-root nursery-grown loblolly pine seedlings were lifted and transplanted immediately into nearby nursery beds in Febr...

Se diseñó concreto de 150 kg/cm2 mediante método ACI y por volumen utilizando agregados reciclados naturales comparando la resistencia a compresión simple distintas mezclas, empleando cemento portland tipo II 30r RS agua red como constantes. La mezcla con sustitución 100% RCD no cumplió, pero sustituciones parciales gruesos arenas sí funcionan. incorporación concretos es menos densa requiere ma...

By employing the differential structure recently developed by N. Gigli, we first give a notion of functions bounded variation (BV) in terms suitable vector fields on complete and separable metric measure space $(\mathbb{X},d,\mu)$ equipped with non-negative Radon $\mu$ finite sets. Then, extend concept divergence-measure $\mathcal{DM}^p(\mathbb{X})$ for any $p\in\[1,\infty]$ and, simply requiri...

Trisomy 21 is the most common reason that women opt for prenatal diagnosis. Conventional prenatal diagnostic methods involve the sampling of fetal materials by invasive procedures such as amniocentesis. Screening by ultrasonography and biochemical markers have been used to risk-stratify pregnant women before definitive invasive diagnostic procedures. However, these screening methods generally t...

Decoders are employed to address individual NWs in crossbars (xbars) used for storage and computation. We report on the simulation and analysis of a membranebased nanowire (NW) decoder proposed by Pribat and Savage [1] that implements the randomized-contact decoder (RCD) introduced by Williams and Kuekes [2] and analyzed by Hogg et al [3] and Rachlin and Savage [4]. An RCD has two sets of paral...

Celiac disease (CD) patients who fail to respond to a gluten-free diet suffer from refractory celiac disease (RCD). A marked expansion of intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) lacking surface TCR/CD3 expression characterizes the RCD subtype II. In up to 50% of RCDII patients these so-called aberrant IEL (a-IEL) develop into lymphoma and can disseminate into other tissues. Elevated levels of Interle...

Enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma, an often fatal complication of celiac disease, can result from expansion of aberrant intraepithelial lymphocytes in refractory celiac disease type II (RCD II). Aberrant intraepithelial lymphocytes and lymphoma cells are intracellularly CD3epsilon(+) but lack expression of the T-cell receptor (TCR)-CD3 complex on the cell surface. It is unknown what causes...

Traits that mediate intraspecific social interactions may overlap in closely related sympatric species, resulting in costly between-species interactions. Such interactions have principally interested investigators studying the evolution of reproductive isolation via reproductive character displacement (RCD) or reinforcement, yet in addition to reproductive interference, interspecific trait over...

Refractory coeliac disease (RCD) is characterised by recurrent or persistent malabsorptive symptoms and villous atrophy, despite strict adherence to a gluten-free diet for at least 6 months and where other causes of malabsorption including malignancy have been excluded. There is limited evidence and guidance on the effective management of these patients. We describe a case of severe RCD in our ...
