Abstract Background Meiosis is a critical process in the reproduction and life cycle of flowering plants in which homologous chromosomes pair, synapse, recombine and segregate.Understanding meiosis will not only advance our knowledge of the mechanisms of genetic recombination, but also has substantial applications in crop improvement.Despite the tr

Laboratory analysis needs a long time and expensive to determine water quality.A tool that can predict water quality by capturing sound vibrations generated by collisions between water samples and light is LPAS (Laser Photo-Acoustic Spectroscopy).To process the data acquired by LPAS, spectrum correction is needed to eliminate data errors when makin

Neural circuits and the cells that comprise them represent the functional units of the brain.Circuits relay and process sensory information, maintain homeostasis, drive behaviors, and facilitate cognitive functions such as learning and memory.Creating a functionally-precise map of the mammalian brain requires anatomically tracing neural circuits, m

Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a highly adapted human sexually transmitted pathogen that can cause symptomatic infections associated with localized inflammation as well as asymptomatic and subclinical infections, particularly in females.Gonococcal infection in humans does not generate an effective immune response in most cases, which contributes to both
