Wireless sensor networks are usually applied in hostile areas where nodes can easily be monitored and captured by an adversary.Designing a key distribution scheme with high security and reliability, low hardware requirements, and moderate communication load is crucial for wireless sensor networks.To address the above objectives, we propose a new ke
This study investigates the effect of pure yeast culture fermentation versus spontaneous fermentation on the volatile compound profile of industrially produced plum brandy.Using traditional distillation methods, the evolution of key volatile compounds is monitored at seven different moments during the distillation process.By integrating advanced an
The TEOSINTE BRANCHED1/CYCLOIDEA/PROLIFERATING CELL FACTOR (TCP) family proteins are plant-specific transcription factors that have been well-acknowledged for designing the architectures of plant branch, shoot, and inflorescence.However, evidence for their innovation and emerging role in abiotic stress has been lacking.In this study, we identified
Abstract Background This study was initiated to establish whether any South African ethnomedicinal plants (indigenous or exotic), that have been reported to be used Winter Sports - Soft Goods - Baselayer traditionally to repel or kill mosquitoes, exhibit effective mosquito larvicidal properties.Methods Extracts of a selection of plant taxa sourced
An imbalance in urban development in China has become a contradiction.Points of Interest (POIs) serve as representations of the spatial distribution of urban functions.Analyzing POI spatial co-occurrence patterns can reveal the agglomeration patterns of urban functions across cities at different levels, providing insights into imbalances in urban d
