Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers with a high degree of polymorphism contribute to the molecular dissection of agriculturally important traits in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench). We designed 5599 non-redundant SSR markers, including regions flanking the SSRs, in whole-genome shotgun sequences of sorghum line ATx623. (AT/TA)n repeats constituted 26.1% of all SSRs, followed by (AG/TC)n a...

In this paper, I give an overview of an ongoing project which aims at building a full-scale computational grammar for Georgian in the Lexical Functional Grammar framework and try to illustrate both practical and theoretical aspects of grammar development. The rich and complex morphology of the language is a major challenge when building a computational grammar for Georgian that is meant to be m...

The project Linguistic Portrait of Georgia envisages various aspects of documentation of Georgian linguistic reality by means of corpus methodologies. This title is an umbrella for three large-scale projects within the framework of which The Georgian Dialect Corpus – GDC (http://corpora.co) was developed. Presently, the architecture and text base of the corpus have been designed, being permanen...

Pregroup grammars with a possibly infinite number of lexical entries are polynomial if the length of type assignments for sentences is a polynomial in the number of words. Polynomial pregroup grammars are shown to generate the standard mildly context sensitive formal languages as well as some context sensitive natural language fragments of Dutch, SwissGerman or Old Georgian. A polynomial recogn...

Although in situ hybridization has been used to examine the distribution of messenger RNA for somatostatin receptor subtypes (sst) in human tumors, the cellular localization of sst1 and sst2A receptors has not been reported. In this study, we describe the cellular localization of human sst1 and sst2A receptor proteins in both cryostat- and paraffin-embedded sections of 25 human tumor tissues us...
