In particular, the leader protease (L-Pro) of a prototype member of the Closterovirus genus, Beet yellows...
The core area of a conventional CMOS digital gate
array consists of only one size of NMOS device and one
size of PMOS device. Both primitives have fixed minimum
channel lengths, and this has significantly impeded analog
applications. This work has shown that by forming series
and parallel interconnections between...
The effects of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) on storage quality, cellular water distribution, and cell wall metabolism of strawberry fruit after subjected to shelf or cold storage were investigated. Fruit were fumigated with a range of aqueous NaHS solution (0.4-3.2 mmol/L), then stored at 20 degrees C for 3 d or...
