BackgroundJasmonate (JA) signaling and functions have been established in rice development and response to a range of biotic or abiotic stress conditions. However, information on the molecular actors and mechanisms underlying turnover of the bioactive jasmonoyl-isoleucine (JA-Ile) is very limited in this plant species.ResultsHere we explored two ge...

This paper presents a numerical analysis of the hydrodynamic pressure build-up between parallel surfaces. According to the Reynolds theory, it is not possible to generate a pressure between flat parallel sliding surfaces. However, experimental results demonstrate that mechanical seal surfaces can be separated by a full fluid film if the sliding spe...

Aqueous LiCl solutions are typical desiccants. Specific thermal capacity data, covering the temperatures range from 233.15 K to 343.15 K and salt mass fractions ranging from 0.15 to 0.45, have been obtained experimentally. The correlating equation proposed reproduces these experimental data with an average absolute deviation of 0.35 %, and a maximu...

One major sustainable development goal is to produce chemicals and fuels from renewable resources, such as biomass, rather than from fossil fuels. A key part of this development is data on the properties of chemicals that appear in this bio-based supply chain. Many of the chemicals have yet to be studied thoroughly, and data on their properties is ...

A prototype pulsed thermal-flow (PTF) sensor was designed, fabricated in micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) technology and tested on various gases. The objective of our development project was twofold: first, to realize a micro-sensor of low cost and ultra-low energy consumption that, secondly, accurately and rapidly measures gas flow velocitie...
