Spearman combined conceptual analysis and test-theoretical andstatistical modeling. Histwo-factor theoryimplied that individual differences in true scores could be attributed to two factors: general (present in all tasks) and specific (present in tasks of the same type, e.g., verbal, spatial). Hi...
A method for the calculation of the corresponding stress intensity factors from finite element results is presented which is useful to determine two stress intensity factors together. Results for some geometries show that all three terms may contribute significantly to the stress distribution near the ...
A significant increase in ginsenoside hydrolysis was observed only in PNLs with round spot disease, regardless of the type of abiotic stress in open field conditions (Fig. 1e). These results indicate that ginsenoside hydrolysis is locally triggered in the lesion area of PNLs with round spot ...
Factors that may contribute to the occurrence of Legionella and Escherichia-Shigella in samples were assessed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient in R (version 3.3.2). Input variables include phylogenetic diversity tree index, mean temperature and mean salinity of top 1m of coastal water or cist...
Faba bean is sensitive to salinity stress that resulted in 20–50% yield loss2. Salinity threats germination of seed, plant growth, rhizobium symbiosis, development of root nodule, and nitrogen-fixed capacity in legumes8. Among the plant growth cycles, seed germination is a critical stage that ...
This implies that PM2.5 might contribute more significantly to the occurrence of these diseases in specific populations. These populations may include individuals with characteristics like advanced age, diabetes, preexisting heart and lung diseases, and a history of smoking, factors that generally ...
Ensuring that nursing students graduate with the required clinical competence in nursing is a global challenge. To address this challenge, several studies have looked at various aspects of competency and competency development, however there is scanty evidence on factors affecting development of clinical ...
Additionally, other factors appear to modulate mindfulness-related gains. For instance, it was reported that in women, mindfulness training may have a more substantial impact on emotion, i.e., a greater decrease in negative affectivity than men, as well as a more pronounced increase in their mi...
Developing low-cadmium (Cd) rice cultivars has emerged as a promising avenue for food safety in Cd-contaminated farmlands. The root-associated microbiomes of rice have been shown to enhance rice growth and alleviate Cd stress. However, the microbial taxo
Under ever-changing environmental conditions, the General Stress Response (GSR) represents a lifesaver for bacteria in order to withstand hostile situations. In α-proteobacteria, the EcfG-type extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factors are the key activators of this response at the transcriptional le...
