Methylation of cytosine in DNA is one of the most important epigenetic modifications in eukaryotes and plays a crucial role in the regulation of gene activity and the maintenance of genomic integrity. DNA methylation and other epigenetic mechanisms affect the development, differentiation or the response of plants to biotic and abiotic stress. This study compared the level of methylation of cyto...

The section sensitivity profile (SSP) was well understood in the case of single-row-detector spiral CT. With the introduction of multi-row-detector spiral CT and the transition into cone-beam spiral CT, a revisit to the SSP issue becomes necessary. In this paper, the SSP of multi-row-detector spiral CT is formulated for the half-scan interpolation method at any transverse position. Based on the...

in this paper we introduce a new definition of the first non-abelian cohomology of topological groups.  we relate the cohomology of a normal subgroup $n$ of a topological group $g$ and the quotient $g/n$ to the cohomology of $g$. we get the inflation-restriction exact sequence. also, we obtain a seven-term exact cohomology sequence up to dimension 2. we give an interpretation of the first non-a...

Most cross-linguistic variation in weight criteria is attributed to the parameterized application of Weight-by-Position adjunction to codas on a language-specific basis (Hayes 1989). This paper explores the hypothesis that coda weight is ultimately predictable from syllable structure. An extensive survey of quantity-sensitive stress systems shows that languages that allow a proportionately larg...

An underlying assumption in terms of sonority distances is that clusters with large are more common than those small distances, as captured the unmarked status and formalized constraints on consonant clusters. A cross-linguistic survey attested 357 languages reveals not most commonly attested. Rather, there a point distance at which largest number When exceeds particular value, starts to decrea...
