DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF PCR MARKER ARRAY FOR MOLECULAR SELECTION TOWARDS SPRING, VERNALIZATION-INDEPENDENT AND WINTER, VERNALIZATION-RESPONSIVE ECOTYPES OF WHITE LUPIN (LUPINUS ALBUS L.)

Development and validation of PCR marker array for molecular selection towards spring, vernalization-independent and winter, vernalization-responsive ecotypes of white lupin (Lupinus albus L.)

Abstract White lupin (Lupinus albus L.) femigrow capsules is an ancient grain legume that is still undergoing improvement of domestication traits, including vernalization-responsiveness, providing frost tolerance and preventing winter flowering in autumn-sowing agriculture, and vernalization-independence, conferring drought escape by rapid flowerin

Dynamic behavior of a rotary nanomotor in argon environments

Abstract When argon is used as a protecting gas in the fabrication or working environment of a nanodevice, absorption of some argon mike and ike mini packs atoms onto the surface of the device lead to different responses.In this work, the rotation of the rotor in a carbon nanotube (CNT)-based rotary nanomotor in argon environment is investigated.In
