Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Branching Cell Population Model Allowing for Cell DeathMounir AoutWe use multi-type branching processes to describe a general cell population model allowing for cell death. Unlike the case without cell death, the process can be subcritical, critical or supercritical. Since we are interested in the supercritical case where the process can escape extinction with positive probability, we give conditions ensuring the supercriticality. In this context, we show the existence … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,717 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrigolactones in Plant Stress Adaptation: Mechanisms and Agricultural PotentialHumayra Ferdus, Mahabuba Mostafa, Md. Motaher HossainAbiotic stresses have significant negative effects on the growth, development, and productivity of crop plants, which are critical to global agricultural production and ecosystem stability. Strigolactones (SLs), a family of carotenoid-derived plant phytohormones, have been identified as playing key roles in plant development and adaptive responses to environmental stimuli. Initially recognized as signaling molecules in host-parasite interactions and as symbiotic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 3 Oct 2026 · 559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDistribution Network Planning and Design Using Branch and Bound MethodsJalal AbdallahThis study presents implementation of the bound and branch methods as an optimization mathematical device for distribution network planning. A development technology concentrates on minimizing the total costs and provides extended opportunities for improvement of network operation, from the initial planning stage. The study illustrate the mathematical and the algorithm of the branch and bound method with an example to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,042 accessesView PDFCite
