a begomovirus, tentatively named tobacco leaf curl japan virus-jpu (tblcjv-jpu), was isolated from lonicera japonica (honeysuckle) plants grown in utsunomiya showing veinal chlorosis symptoms. the tblcjv-jpu genome with 2,761 nt showed a highest identity with tblcjv-jp3 and was also close to tblcjv and as well to tblcjv-jp2. the overall nt identity with tblcjv-jp3 amounted to 92.94%, while the ...

A variety of user-friendly spreadsheet templates have been developed for geoscience studies. However, the use of the built-in matrix functions within spreadsheet programs, such as Excel, is not particularly straightforward, lowering the value of spreadsheet programs for matrix-based computations, such as multiple regression analyses. Therefore, this study first developed two applications for Ex...

The response of floating plants to current phosphorus levels may be affected by previously experienced phosphorus concentrations because some species have the ability to store excess phosphorus for later use. This might have an impact on their competition. Here, we investigate the effect of previous...
