EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review of Human Induced Vibrations on FootbridgesC. Maraveas, Z.C. Fasoulakis, K.D. TsavdaridisAn extensive literature review of human induced vibrations that flexible footbridges experience is addressed in this study. Qualitative information is comprehensively included herein to provide common methods and code recommendations for the practicing engineers. The parameters affecting the dynamic response of footbridges excited by pedestrians are highlighted. In particular, the synchronous lateral excitation is addressed. This investigation can be valuable … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Oct 2015 · 8,815 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVENT-RELATED POTENTIALS EXTRACTION OF WORKING MEMORY USING WAVELET ALGORITHMSitiZubaidahMohd Tumari, Rubita Sudirman, Abdul Hamid AhmadThis study was designed to classify and determine the Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) signal pattern of normal children on visual response. Thirty-eight children aged between 10 to 12 years old were subjected to a two-phase computer-based assessment while their working memory activity was recorded using a Neurofax-EEG 9200 machine. For children, it is anticipated that some information can be lost when … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 13 Nov 2013 · 6,801 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConnectivism in Science Education with Emphasis on International CollaborationEva Trnova, Josef TrnaThe study presents the results of design-based research on the influence of connectivism on science education, with the emphasis on an international collaboration among/between teachers and students from different countries. Science and technology education is a very important part of culture as a knowledge background of society. Very fast ICT development strongly influences education. The pedagogical theory of connectivism was … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 12 Feb 2013 · 8,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhosphorus Biogeochemical Cycling in a Sugar Cane AgroecosystemD. Sequera, D. Lopez-HernandezThe annual harvest of sugarcane plantations together with the burning of the crop before harvest, a common practice of management of sugarcane plantations in South America, leads to the loss of significant amounts of nutrients in those agroecosystems. Thus prescribed burning operations could progressively diminish the level of soil organic matter and increase nutrient deficiency in soils of sugar cane … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Jan 2013 · 7,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCo-Inhibitory Molecule Programmed Death-1 and its Ligands: A New Alternative Therapy for Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection?A. Leon-Flores, P. Del Rio, G. Reyes-TeranChronic viral infections are characterized by the up-regulation of a set of immunomodulatory receptors. The over-expression of co-inhibitory molecules on T cells leads to a dysfunctional T cell response with an "exhausted" phenotype. Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) is a molecule that exerts an inhibitory signal on the T cell receptor when it binds to the PD-L1 or PD-L2 ligands present on … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2012 · 6,962 accessesView PDFCite
