Knowledge on forest stands is crucial for forest ecosystem management.This study aims at investigating Bookmark some quantitative and qualitative characteristics of Arasbaran Forest Protected Area in different slope gradient classes.For this purpose, circular plots of 400 square meters at 50-meter elevation intervals were established along three to
Global diversity and biogeography of DNA viral communities in activated sludge systems
Abstract Background Activated sludge (AS) systems in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) harbor enormous viruses that regulate microbial metabolism and nutrient Drone Accessories cycling, significantly influencing the stability of AS systems.However, our knowledge about the diversity of viral taxonomic groups and functional traits in global AS syst
Enhancing genomic association studies in slash pine through close-range UAV-based morphological phenotyping
In forestry genetics and industry, tree morphological traits such as height, crown size, and shape are critical for understanding growth dynamics and productivity.Traditional methods for measuring these traits are limited in efficiency, scalability, and accuracy, posing challenges for large-scale forest assessments.This study focuses on integrating
A literature-based approach to annotation and browsing of Web resources
The emerging Semantic Web technologies critically depend on the availability of shared knowledge representations called ontologies, which are intended to encode consensual knowledge about specific domains.Currently, the proposed processes for building and maintaining those ontologies entail the joint effort of groups of representative domain expert
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 4: a case report
Abstract Background Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder that manifests primarily with jaundice and pruritus and can progresses from persistent cholestasis to cirrhosis and late childhood liver failure.Classically, progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis is classified into three subtypes: 1,
