Rotation measure synthesis applied to synthetic SKA images of galaxy clusters
ABSTRACT Future observations with next-generation radio telescopes will help us to understand the presence and evolution of magnetic fields in galaxy clusters through determination of the so-called rotation measure (RM). In this work, we applied the RM synthesis technique to synthetic first phase Square Kilometre Array...

Hence, we introduced a new method in which molecularly precise nanoscale patterns of antigens are displayed using...

Unearthing the genomes of plant-beneficial Pseudomonas model strains WCS358, WCS374 and WCS417
Background: Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can protect plants against pathogenic microbes through a diversity of mechanisms including competition for nutrients, production of antibiotics, and stimulation of the host immune system, a phenomenon called induced systemic resistance (ISR). In the past 30 years,...

Showcasing synergies between agriculture, biodiversity and ecosystem services to help farmers capitalising on native biodiversity
The slow adoption by the agricultural sector of practices to promote biodiversity are thought to originate from three interrelated issues.

shRNA-Mediated Silencing of Y-Box Binding Protein-1 (YB-1) Suppresses Growth of Neuroblastoma Cell SH-SY5Y In Vitro and In Vivo
Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1), a member of cold-shock protein superfamily, has been demonstrated to be associated with tumor malignancy, and is proposed as a prognostic marker in multiple carcinomas. However, the role of YB-1 in neuroblastoma has not been well studied. To investigate the functional role of YB-1 in neu...
