Architecture of a decentralised decision support system for futuristic beehives

Francesco Mondada, Robert Thomas Edmund Mills, Robert Matthew Mills

Honeybees are essential to human society, providing pollination services globally as well as producing honey and other valuable products. Effective management of apiaries should not only rely on beekeeper knowledge and skill, but also incorporate new infor ...

Structural basis for recognition of RALF peptides by LRX proteins during pollen tube growth

Sarah Wehrle

Plant reproduction relies on the highly regulated growth of the pollen tube for sperm delivery. This process is controlled by secreted RALF signaling peptides, which have previously been shown to be perceived by Catharanthus roseus RLK1-like (CrRLK1Ls) mem ...

The response of stomatal conductance to seasonal drought in tropical forests

Charlotte Grossiord, Jin Wu

Stomata regulate CO2 uptake for photosynthesis and water loss through transpiration. The approaches used to represent stomatal conductance (g s) in models vary. In particular, current understanding of drivers of the variation in a key parameter in those mo ...

Mechanism of uranium reduction and immobilization in Desulfovibrio vulgaris biofilms

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Malgorzata Alicja Stylo

The prevalent formation of noncrystalline U(IV) species in the subsurface and their enhanced susceptibility to reoxidation and remobilization, as compared to crystalline uraninite, raise concerns about the long-term sustainability of the bioremediation of ...

Cross-pollination of normalisation techniques from speaker to face authentication using Gaussian mixture models

Sébastien Marcel

This paper applies score and feature normalization techniques to parts-based Gaussian mixture model (GMM) face authentication. In particular, we propose to utilize techniques that are well established in state-of-the-art speaker authentication, and apply t ...

High-density collagen gel tubes as a matrix for primary human bladder smooth muscle cells

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey, Lionel Ambroise Micol

Tissue-engineered grafts for the urinary tract are being investigated for the potential treatment of several urologic diseases. These grafts, predominantly tubular-shaped, usually require in vitro culture prior to implantation to allow cell engraftment on ...

Community development along a proglacial chronosequence: are above-ground and below-ground community structure controlled more by biotic than abiotic factors?

François Gillet, Edward Mitchell

P>1. We studied vascular plant and soil-dwelling testate amoeba communities in deglaciated sites across a range of substrate ages in Kenai Fjords, Alaska, USA to test four hypotheses. (i) Patterns of community assembly are similar for vascular plants and t ...

POLLEN CLUMPING AND WIND DISPERSAL IN AN INVASIVE ANGIOSPERM

Marc Parlange, Charles Vivant Ignacio Meneveau, Michael David Martin

Pollen dispersal is a fundamental aspect of plant reproductive biology that maintains connectivity between spatially separated populations. Pollen clumping, a characteristic feature of insect-pollinated plants, is generally assumed to be a detriment to win ...

Large eddy simulation of pollen transport in the atmospheric boundary layer

Marc Parlange, Charles Vivant Ignacio Meneveau

This paper presents a framework to simulate pollen dispersal by the wind based on the large eddy simulation(LES) technique. Important phenomena such as the pollen emission by the plants and the ground deposition are parameterized by the lower boundary cond ...

Pollen productivity estimates and relevant source area of pollen for selected plant taxa in a pasture woodland landscape of the Jura Mountains (Switzerland)

Alexandre Buttler, Pascal Vittoz

Relevant source area of pollen (RSAP) and pollen productivity for 11 key taxa characteristic of the pasture woodland landscape of the Jura Mountains, Switzerland, were estimated using pollen assemblages from moss polsters at 20 sites. To obtain robust poll ...

The influence of local meteorological conditions on the circadian rhythm of corn (Zea mays L.) pollen emission

Marc Parlange

Field experiments were performed to study the diurnal cycle of corn pollen emission and its relation to local meteorological conditions, including temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, mean wind speed, and turbulence quantities. Pollen concentra ...

Cell refractive index tomography by digital holographic microscopy

Christian Depeursinge, Tristan Colomb, Etienne Cuche, Frédéric Montfort, Pierre Marquet, Florian Charrière, Jonas Kühn, Mihaela Marian

For what we believe to be the first time, digital holographic microscopy is applied to perform optical diffraction tomography of a pollen grain. Transmission phase images with nanometric axial accuracy are numerically reconstructed from holograms acquired ...

Flooding tolerance of Central European tree and shrub species

Rodolphe Schlaepfer

Extensive efforts have been made in recent years to restore rivers with a view to increasing the ecological value of riparian areas and the surrounding landscape and to improving the protection provided against extreme flooding events. One of the important ...
