Many flowering plants possess systems of self-incompatibility (SI) to prevent inbreeding. In Brassica, SI recognition is controlled by the multiallelic gene complex (S-haplotypes) at the S-locus, which encodes both the male determinant S-locus protein 11 (SP11/SCR) and the female determinant S-receptor kinase (SRK). Upon self-pollination, the S-haplotype-specific interaction between the pollen-...

The determinants of recognition specificity of self-incompatibility in Brassica are SRK in the stigma and SP11/SCR in the pollen, both of which are encoded in the S locus. The nucleotide sequence analyses of many SRK and SP11/SCR alleles have identified several interspecific pairs of S haplotypes having highly similar sequences between B. oleracea and B. rapa. These interspecific pairs of S hap...

The predictability of a theoretical, computer-assisted IOL calculation method and of the Sanders-Retzlaff-Kraff (SRK) method was evaluated from pre- and postoperative biometry in 110 cataractous patients subjected to a routine IOL calculation. With the theoretical method and the preoperative data the refraction was on the average 0.72 D (SD 0.78) more myopic than expected, an error which could ...

Abstract In this work, a version of continuous stage stochastic Runge–Kutta (CSSRK) methods is developed for differential equations (SDEs). First, general order theory these established by the B-series and multicolored rooted tree. Then proposed CSSRK are applied to three special kinds SDEs corresponding conditions derived. particular, single integrand with additive noise, we construct some spe...

A central issue in the equation of state (EoS) development is to describe accurately fluid density and thus other thermodynamic properties based on it. This study attempts investigate modeling high-pressure mixtures, particularly related reservoir fluids, by cubic non-cubic EoS. large database binary mixtures petroleum fluids was established used compare some typical EoS, including SRK, PR, PC-...

AIMS To study the refractive outcome of cataract surgery employing IOLMaster biometry data and to compare it with that of applanation ultrasonography in a prospective study of 100 eyes that underwent phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation. METHODS The Holladay formula using IOLMaster data was employed for the prediction of implanted intraocular lenses (IOLs). One month after c...

High-pressure phase equilibrium and volumetric properties of highly asymmetric mixtures related to reservoir fluids are critical the development high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) reservoirs. However, there is a lack relevant data accurate modeling tools. In this work, we prepared pseudo-binary methane (CH4) + stock tank oil (STO) systematically measured their densities at temperatures from ...

A catarata pediátrica é a causa mais comum de cegueira tratável em crianças. Prevalência, etiologia e morfologia variam conforme o desenvolvimento sócioeconômico. O tratamento tem como objetivo diminuir a ambliopia, sendo de difícil manejo principalmente em casos unilaterais. A decisão sobre afacia ou implante primário de lente intraocular deve ser individualizado, assim como a correção com len...
