Plants must adapt to their environment and require mechanisms for sensing their surroundings and responding appropriately. An expanded family of more than 200 leucine-rich repeat (LRR) receptor kinases (LRR-RKs) transduces fluctuating and often contradictory signals from the environment into changes in nuclear gene expression. Two LRR-RKs, BRASSINOSTEROID INSENSITIVE 1 (BRI1), a steroid recepto...

The Rational Krylov Sequence (RKS) method can be seen as a generalisation of Arnoldi's method. It projects a matrix pencil onto a smaller subspace; this projection results in a small upper Hessenberg pencil. As for the Arnoldi method, RKS can be restarted implicitly, using the QR decomposition of a Hessenberg matrix. This restart comes with a projection of the subspace using a rational function...

Objective To analyze and compare the efficacy of laparoscopic modified Soave operation and open radical resection in the treatment of Hirschsprung's disease. Methods Two hundred and sixteen children who suffered from Hirschsprung's disease and were admitted into the hospital from June 2015 to December 2016 were selected as research subjects. They were grouped into an observation group in whic...

In this paper, we present a new method for solving Reproducing Kernel Space (RKS) theory, and iterative algorithm for solving Generalized Burgers Equation (GBE) is presented. The analytical solution is shown in a series in a RKS, and the approximate solution u(x,t) is constructed by truncating the series. The convergence of u(x,t) to the analytical solution is also proved.

BACKGROUND Health systems in low and middle income countries are struggling to improve efficiency in the functioning of health units of which workforce is one of the most critical building blocks. In India, Rogi Kalyan Samiti (RKS) was established at every health unit as institutions of local decision making in order to improve productive efficiency and quality. Measuring efficiency of health u...

A peptide hormone, root meristem growth factor (RGF), regulates root meristem development through the PLETHORA (PLT) stem cell transcription factor pathway, but it remains to be uncovered how extracellular RGF signals are transduced to the nucleus. Here we identified, using a combination of a custom-made receptor kinase (RK) expression library and exhaustive photoaffinity labeling, three leucin...

The characteristics of renal tubular progenitor/precursor cells and the role of renal tubule regeneration in the repair of remnant kidneys (RKs) after nephrectomy are not well known. In the present study of a murine model of subtotal nephrectomy, we used immunofluorescence (IF), immunoblot analysis, and in situ hybridization methods to demonstrate that nestin expression was transiently upregula...

Over the linked data information retrieval, adaptation of temporal features such as date, time or time of an event, is paid little attention. Therefore, we propose a keywordbased linked data information retrieval framework, called TLDRet, that can incorporate temporal features and able to generate more concise results. Preliminary evaluation of our system shows promising performance. 1 TLDRet: ...

This paper results from a research project at Tilburg University in which organization, information and archival studies have been integrated. We argue that the archivistic concept of the record keeping system (RKS) can be used as an instrument for improving the performance of the document-flow in a business process, and, as a result, of the process. Archival documents contain information relat...
