Because rice feeds half of the world's population, a secure global food supply depends on sustainable rice production. Here we test whether the co-cultivation of rice and fish into one "rice-fish system" (RFS; fish refers to aquatic animals in this article) could help sustain rice production. We examined intensive and traditional RFSs that have been widely practiced in China. We found that rice...

Retinoblastoma cells of the Y79 line were co-cultivated with human fibroblasts and bovine iris and retinal pigment epithelium in tissue culture. The Y79 cells, which characteristically grow as a suspension culture, were found to attach directly to the fibroblasts and pigment epithelium on the flask surface. Electron microscopic examination of the fibroblast-retinoblastoma co-cultures revealed n...

The organization of crop cultivation practices is still far from completion, and Web Resources are not used adequately. This paper proposed a method, based on SVM, to organize the knowledge of crop cultivation practices efficiently from Web Resources. The knowledge organization method of crop cultivation was proposed with Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) in the application of the crop cultivat...

Mixed cropping, also known as inter-cropping, polyculture, or co-cultivation, is a type of plant production system that involves planting two more species (or cultivars) simultaneously in the same field variable order (row rowless) [...]

Gloriosa superba L. a medicinally important monocot, member of the family Liliaceae, was investigated for callusing, direct regeneration and induction of hairy root using soil bacterium Agrobacterium rhizogenes. Friable callus was initiated from corms on basal MS medium amended with 2,4-D (1 mg L) and kinetin (1 mg L). Callus generated from such effective combinations were co-cultivated with th...

The EU sugar industry has a long tradition of maximising the use of co-products arising from the beet processing operation, all of which are used in productive applications. In fact, sugar factories are not only suppliers of sugar, but also produce other products, such as animal feed. All parts of the beet are used and converted into valuable products, without waste. These products are for the ...

BACKGROUND The introduction of renewable jet fuel (RJF) is considered an important emission mitigation measure for the aviation industry. This study compares the well-to-wake (WtWa) greenhouse gas (GHG) emission performance of multiple RJF conversion pathways and explores the impact of different co-product allocation methods. The insights obtained in this study are of particular importance if R...

in this paper, we present some inequalities for the co-pi index involving the some topological indices, the number of vertices and edges, and the maximum degree. after that, we give a result for trees. in addition, we give some inequalities for the largest eigenvalue of the co-pi matrix of g.
