A SYSTEMS GENOMICS AND GENETICS APPROACH TO IDENTIFY THE GENETIC REGULATORY NETWORK FOR LIGNIN CONTENT IN BRASSICA NAPUS SEEDS

A systems genomics and genetics approach to identify the genetic regulatory network for lignin content in Brassica napus seeds

Seed quality traits of oilseed rape, Brassica napus (B.napus), exhibit quantitative inheritance determined by its genetic makeup and the environment via the mediation of a complex genetic architecture of hundreds to thousands of genes.Thus, instead of single gene analysis, network-based systems genomics and genetics approaches that combine genotype

Machine learning approaches for stability prediction of rectangular tunnels in natural clays based on MLP and RBF neural networks

In underground space technology, the issue of tunnel stability is a fundamental concern that Toys significantly causes catastrophe.Owing to sedimentation and deposition processes, the strengths of clays are anisotropic, where the magnitudes of undrained shear strengths in the vertical and horizontal directions are different.The anisotropic undraine

Towards a rhetoric of cross-cultural identity

This paper explores the involvement of metaphor and allusion in the discursive construction of cross-cultural identity.Cross-cultural identity is regarded as a narrative; as such it Milk Alternatives is liable to rhetorical analysis and dependent on rhetorical processes for its construction and assimilation.Metaphor is claimed to serve both as an a
