Plant defence responses against pathogen infection are crucial to plant survival. The high degree of regulation of plant immunity occurs both transcriptionally and posttranscriptionally. Once transcribed, target gene RNA must be processed prior to translation. This includes polyadenylation, 5'capping, editing, splicing, and mRNA export. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have been implicated at each l...

In order to extend worldwide the processing business of the petrochemical plant, its potential business partners can themselves concurrently simulate production plans with high quality technical and economic features. In the simulation process, a large number of divergent goals are under attention. Therefore, the plant computer will use the multi-objective linear programming as a tool for negot...

Stockpiling and blending play a major role in maintaining the quantity and quality of the raw materials fed into processing plants, especially the cement, iron ore and steel making, and coal-fired power generation industries that usually require a much uniformed feed. Due to the variable nature of such materials, they even come from the same source and the produced ores or concentrates are seld...

increasing resource use efficiency is one of the important ways to enhance agricultural productions and reduce environmental hazards. for this purpose, improvement of n use efficiency is an effective approach. nitrogen losses not only occur in field but also in the processing course. the objective of this study was to calculate nitrogen losses and efficiency during production to consumption for...

U14snoRNAs are highly conserved eukaryotic nucleolar small RNAs involved in precursor ribosomal RNA processing. In vertebrates, U14snoRNAs and a number of other snoRNAs are transcribed within introns of protein coding genes and are released by processing. We have isolated potato and maize genomic U14 clones using PCR-amplified plant U14 probes. Plant U14s show extensive homology to those from y...

The accurate selection of a processing plant site can result in decreasing total mining cost. This problem can be solved by multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods. This research introduces a new approach by integrating fuzzy AHP and gray MCDM methods to solve all decision-making problems. The approach is applied in the case of a copper mine area. The critical criteria are considered adja...

The measurement of plant features is a fundamental element of plant science research and related applications. The information related to plant features is especially useful for its applications in plant growth modelling and climate control in greenhouses or plant factory. Many methods have been applied in plant growth measurement. Traditional direct measurement methods are generally simple and...

AIM Assessment of harmful industrial factors caused by work conditions in a modern milk processing plant. METHODS Work conditions, rest, nutrition, medical service, and subjective health indices among the employees in a new milk processing plant were studied. We used a specially formed questionnaire; instrumental measurements of microclimate parameters, noise, and illumination at workplace; l...

in modern agriculture, image processing technique is used for mechanization and intelligent machines instead of humans. one of them is identifying varieties of plants and fruits. identifying plant varieties is important in plant eugenic programs. visual examination of plant leaves and fruits are the common processes for this aim. identification and classification of plants using machine vision ...
