Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) possesses a large and highly repetitive genome of 5.1 Gb that has hindered the development of a complete sequence. In 2012, the International Barley Sequencing Consortium released a resource integrating whole-genome shotgun sequences with a physical and genetic framework. However, because only 6278 bacterial artificial chromosome...
The atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) along 95°W in the eastern equatorial Pacific during boreal autumn is described using data from the East Pacific Investigation of Climate (EPIC) 2001, with an emphasis on the evolution of the thermodynamic ABL properties from the cold tongue to the cold-advection region north of the...
Hydrogen is the green fuel that can be produced from water through electrolysis and used via hydrogen fuel cells to generate electricity with zero carbon dioxide emission. The commercialization of electrolyzers and fuel cells is the critical step to achieving global carbon neutrality. However, it is severely hampered by the...
Toxoplasma gondii, the most common parasitic infection of human brain and eye, persists across lifetimes, can progressively damage sight, and is currently incurable. New, curative medicines are needed urgently. Herein, we develop novel models to facilitate drug development: EGS strain T. gondii forms cysts in vitro that induce oocysts in...

The metal organic framework, MOF-74(Ni), was synthesized in a continuous flow microwave-assisted reactor obtaining a high space-time yield (~90 g h⁻¹ L⁻¹) and 96.5% conversion of reagents. Separation of the nucleation and growth steps was performed by using uniform and rapid microwave heating to induce nucleation, which allowed a substantial...
A cost reduction analysis is performed by coordinating
the exchange of LANDSAT (formerly ERTS) data between a CDC
3300 and a PDP8/L minicomputer. The LANDSAT data is displayed
on a 4002 Tektronix terminal by means of a grayscale output.
Large amounts of data and number manipulation are processed
in the...
An enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 2-cyclo-hexene-1-one and azomethine ylide generated in situ from isatin and amino ester was developed by employing proline sulfonamide as the catalyst. Consequently, novel polycyclic spirooxindole scaffolds with three contiguous stereocenters were prepared in high yield (up to 95%) with excellent diastereo- (> 20:1 dr) and...
Identification of new molecular targets for the treatment of breast cancer is an important clinical goal, especially for triple-negative breast cancer, which is refractory to existing targeted treatments. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor known primarily as the mediator of dioxin toxicity. However, the AhR can...

The author investigates a FORTRAN program designed to find
all solutions of two nonlinear polynomial equations in two unknowns.
For the method of Sylvester to be a method adaptable to a
general purpose solver in this area, it will be necessary to have
multiple precision capability combined with a much...
