A repeat sequence 682 base pairs (bp) long produced by cleavage of human DNA with Xba I restriction enzyme is composed of four tandemly arranged subunits with lengths of 171, 170, 171, and 170 bp each. The sequence organization of the 682 bp Xba I repeat bears a striking resemblance to other complex satellite DNAs of primates, including the Eco RI human alpha satellite family which also occurs ...

We present recent extensions to METRICS [10] infrastructure that allow optimization of design processes at the flow level, rather than only at the individual tool level. As previously reported, METRICS infrastructure allows automatic recording of design and process information. Our extensions include (i) the collection of design flow information for use in flow optimization, and (ii) integratio...

Air quality issues caused by nitrogen dioxide (NO2) have become increasingly serious in Chinese cities recent years. As important urban green infrastructure, forests can mitigate gaseous pollution absorbing NO2 through leaf gas exchange. This study investigated spatiotemporal variations the removal capacity of Beijing city from 2014–2019, based on i-Tree Eco deposition model. The results show t...

Street trees are integral components of urban green infrastructure. The importance benefits provided by street has motivated the development various tools to quantify value ecosystem services. i-Tree Eco is a widely applied method for quantifying forest structure, services, and values. Since its first release in 2006, been successfully utilized over 100 countries around world. This study descri...

Three approaches were used to identify DNA polymorphisms in humans by examining the DNAs of a number of individuals within Huntington's Disease pedigrees as well as random individuals for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). The first approach used randomly chosen, cloned single-copy DNA segments from four types of human recombinant DNA libraries as hybridization probes to detect ...

Let Z2 = {0, 1} and G = (V ,E) be a graph. A labeling f : V → Z2 induces an edge labeling f* : E →Z2 defined by f*(uv) = f(u).f (v). For i ε Z2 let vf (i) = v(i) = card{v ε V : f(v) = i} and ef (i) = e(i) = {e ε E : f*(e) = i}. A labeling f is said to be Vertex-friendly if | v(0) − v(1) |≤ 1. The vertex balance index set is defined by {| ef (0) − ef (1) | : f is vertex-friendly}. In this paper ...

Objective: The objective of this study was to reveal at which level urban street trees in Burdur city center can accomplish ecosystem services (ES) regulation. Material and Methods: In study, benefits physical terms are quantified by using a software called i-Tree Eco model developed the USDA Forest Service. Besides tree characteristics forest cover, air pollution reduction, carbon storage sequ...
