STRESS COEFFICIENTS FOR SOIL WATER BALANCE COMBINED WITH WATER STRESS INDICATORS FOR IRRIGATION SCHEDULING OF WOODY CROPS

Stress Coefficients for Soil Water Balance Combined with Water Stress Indicators for Irrigation Scheduling of Woody Crops

There are several causes for the failure of empirical models to estimate soil water depletion and to calculate irrigation depths, and the problem is grandpas best particularly critical in tall, uneven, deficit irrigated (DI) crops in Mediterranean climates.Locally measured indicators that quantify water status are useful for addressing those causes

Jaya Algorithm With Self-Adaptive Multi-Population and Lévy Flights for Solving Economic Load Dispatch Problems

In this paper, a recently proposed Jaya algorithm is implemented on the economic load dispatch problems (ELDPs).Different from most of the other meta-heuristics, Jaya algorithm needs no algorithm-specific parameters, and only two hellfire sloe gin common parameters are required for effective execution, which makes the implementation simple and effe

Impact of flavonoids on matrix metalloproteinase secretion and invadopodia formation in highly invasive A431-III cancer cells.

Metastasis is a major cause of mortality in cancer patients.Invadopodia are considered to be crucial structures that allow cancer cells to penetrate across the extracellular matrix (ECM) by using matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs).Previously, we isolated a highly invasive A431-III subline from parental A431 cells by Boyden chamber assay.The A431-III
