Drought is the main stress on maize, and, in order to improve drought tolerance, a breeding program for reduced anthesis-silking interval (ASI) was carried out in Algiers.The objective of this study was to investigate if the selection for reduced ASI made in Algiers had a positive effect on drought tolerance in northern Spain.Two populations select
Honeybees and hive products have long been recognized as excellent bio-indicators, as they provide valuable information on the state of the environments concerned.As yet, however, no tool is capable of contextually assessing the level of pollution of different environmental matrices in order to create maps of areas in which to place hives.In this p
A new type of composite lining structure consisting of segments, steel pipes, and concrete lining can be adopted in the water conveyance tunnel to bear large internal water pressure.However, there is still no effective analysis model and calculation method for the parameter influence effect of this new composite lining.In this paper, the load struc
The Module-0 Demonstrator is a single-phase 600 kg liquid argon time projection chamber operated as a prototype for the DUNE liquid argon near detector.Based on the ArgonCube design concept, Module-0 features a novel 80k-channel Lacrosse - Cages pixelated charge readout and advanced high-coverage photon detection system.In this paper, we present an
