Fine mapping and candidate gene analysis of qKnps-2A for kernel number per spike in wheat
Abstract Background Kernel number per spike (KNPS) is a crucial determinant of wheat yield. Previous studies identified qKnps-2A as a major stable QTL for KNPS on chromosome 2A using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from a cross between the semi-winter wheat cul...

This paper proposes a deterministic, mechanical solution to the wave-particle duality paradox by establishing a direct link between mass-energy-information equivalence and the quantum-classical transition. We argue that wave-function collapse is not triggered by an abstract, non-...

Conceptual System Design Case Study for Decision Analysis
As part of organizations pursuing innovation, systems engineering teams include experts in decision-driven data generation, analysis, and synthesis. These experts provide skill in crafting decision support models that show the relationship between decision alternatives and fundam...

Strategic repositioning of focal firms in business ecosystems: a trajectory-based perspective
Purpose This study examines how focal firms evolve within business ecosystems over time. While prior research has explored ecosystem strategies, structural changes, and firm-level adaptations, it has often examined these dynamics either through specific dimensions or within a lim...

Elucidating the performance of data assimilation neural networks for chaotic dynamics
Abstract. In supervised data assimilation machine learning emulation, the training data contain targets produced by an existing data assimilation scheme, such as analysis increments. By contrast, data assimilation networks were recently proposed to learn the analysis operator whi...

Bromide-mediated paired electrosynthesis of hydrogen and epoxide
Water electrolysis struggles to compete with the low cost of hydrogen produced from methane or coal. We propose a bromide-mediated paired electrosynthesis system in which an aqueous electrolyte is combined with olefins in an inert organic co-solvent to simultaneously generate hyd...

Histoplasmosis in India: a systematic review of reported cases
BACKGROUND: Histoplasmosis is a systemic fungal infection caused by Histoplasma capsulatum and is increasingly recognised in India, but its epidemiology, clinical spectrum, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes remain poorly characterised. We conducted a systematic review of reporte...

Fast robust additive models using gamma-divergence
Abstract Additive models offer a flexible framework for modeling nonlinear relationships between predictors and a continuous response variable, where nonparametric terms are commonly modeled via penalized splines. However, such models can be sensitive to outliers, leading to pote...
