This study of the box-shaped brooch uses experimental archaeology in an attempt to gain more information about how these combination brooches were made.Some misunderstandings are addressed concerning the Fyrkat box brooch and Viking Age bronze casting in general.When trying to recreate the brooch, the four knot-shaped animals cast as one with the b
Abstract WDR11, a gene associated with Kallmann syndrome, is important in reproductive system development but molecular understanding of its action remains incomplete.We previously reported that Wdr11-deficient embryos exhibit defective ciliogenesis and developmental defects associated with Hedgehog (HH) signalling.Here we demonstrate that WDR11 is
Technological progress in tunneling has led to modern and efficient tunneling methods in vast underground spaces even under cga 200 to cga 510 adapter inappropriate geological conditions.Identification and access to appropriate and sufficient geological hazard data are key elements to successful construction of underground structures.Choice of the
Abstract Fusarium wilt, caused by the soil-borne fungal pathogen, Fusarium oxysporum f.sp.cubense (Foc), is considered as one of the most threatening diseases of banana.The Cavendish variety, resistant to Foc race 1 (R1), is susceptible to tropical race 4 (TR4), an aggressive race of the pathogen which is of increasing concern worldwide.Previous st
Effective irrigation strategies are of great significance for improving crop yields.There is an increasing concern that short-season corn hybrids are gradually being encouraged to plant in the North China Plain (NCP) with the development of mechanized grain harvesting, but the photosynthetic characteristics and productivity of short-season hybrids
