The subsurface represents space and resource of ever-growing importance to meet human activity needs associated with the availability of built environments and energy.So-called energy geostructures represent a breakthrough technology in this context.By integrating the structural support role of earth-contact structures with the heating-cooling role
ABSTRACT Lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs) are historically known for their role as microbial-derived signaling molecules that shape plant symbiosis with beneficial rhizobia or mycorrhizal fungi.Recent studies showing that LCOs are widespread across the fungal kingdom have raised questions about the ecological function of these compounds in organis
Plant nematodes recorded during surveys in the Tsitsikamma National Park are listed and two new Criconematinae species are described.Females of Criconemoides silvicola spec.nov.have the first three or four annuli separated from the following annuli by a discontinuity, dorsally and ventrally fused submedian lobes which are connected by a ridge later
Abstract Background The ectopic superior parathyroid in the tracheoesophageal groove and paraesophageal region is rare.Hyperparathyroidism results when these glands become hyperfunctioning.That may necessitate surgical intervention in the LED Strip Lighting form of parathyroidectomy, which requires a transsternal or transthoracic approach due to a
Visibly pushdown automata are input-driven pushdown automata that recognize some non-regular context-free languages while preserving the nice closure and decidability properties of finite automata.Visibly pushdown automata with Magnesium multiple stacks have been considered recently by La Torre, Madhusudan, and Parlato, who exploit the concept of v
