Starting from configurations having homogeneous spatial density, we study kinetics in a two-dimensional system of inelastically colliding hard particles, a popular model for cooling granular matter. Following an initial time period, the system exhibits a crossover to an inhomogeneous regime that is characterized by the formation and growth of parti...

We assessed early vegetative growth in a population of 382 accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana using automated non-invasive high-throughput phenotyping. All accessions were imaged daily from seven to 18 days after sowing in three independent experiments and genotyped using the Affymetrix 250k SNP array. Projected leaf area (PLA) was derived from ima...
Herein, AlKα X-rays are used to drive the growth of luminescent silver clusters in zeolites. The growth of the silver species is tracked using Auger spectroscopy and fluorescence microscopy, by monitoring the evolution from their ions to luminescent clusters and then metallic, dark nanoparticles. It is shown that the growth rate in different zeolit...
V raziskavi smo želeli ugotoviti vpliv temperature zraka in tal ter koncentracij CO2 tako na sadike bukve kot tudi na ektomikorizne glive (ECM). Poskus smo zastavili na enoletnih sadikah bukve Fagus sylvatica L., posajenih v rizotrone pri različnih temperaturah: v klimatizirani komori (15-20 °C) brez dodatnega hlajenja korenin (CR-) in z dodatnim h...
We develop an overlapping generations monetary endogenous growth (generated by productive public expenditures) model with inflation targeting, characterized by relocation shocks for young agents, which in turn generates a role for money (even in the presence of the return-dominating physical capital) and financial intermediaries. Based on this mode...
The main goal of this article is to investigate techniques that can quickly lead to successful social systems by boosting network connectivity. This is especially useful when starting new online communities where the aim is to increase the system utilization as much as possible. This aspect is very important nowadays, given the existence of many on...
Continued downscaling of functional layers for key enabling devices has prompted the development of characterization tools to probe and dynamically control thin film formation stages and ensure the desired film morphology and functionalities in terms of, e.g., layer surface smoothness or electrical properties. In this work, we review the combined u...

A major challenge of plant biology is to unravel the genetic basis of complex traits. We took advantage of recent technical advances in high-throughput phenotyping in conjunction with genome-wide association studies to elucidate genotype-phenotype relationships at high temporal resolution. A diverse Brassica napus population from a commercial breed...

The recently sequenced Burkholderia mesoacidophila (previously Pseudomonas mesoacidophila) is a soil organism and as such will be exposed to multiple concurrent stresses in the natural environment. The combinatorial stress potentially experienced by microbes in soil has not been investigated in detail. The impact of combinatorial stress on growth w...

Background Cultivation of medicinal crops, which synthesize hundreds of substances for curative functions, was focused on the synthesis of secondary metabolites rather than biomass accumulation. Nutrition is an important restrict factor for plant growth and secondary metabolites, but little attention has been given to the plasticity of nutrient upt...
