Sexual dimorphism in excess power index of four North American native bees (Hymenoptera, Andrenidae, Apidae, and Halictidae)

A multitude of hymenopteran species exhibit sexual dimorphism for simple traits, such as color, size, or antennal segment number.These differences can reflect selection for specialized biological roles, many of which have not been documented for the majority of bee and wasp species.The excess cubs foam finger power index (EPI) is an estimate of ins

Safety Aspects of Supporting Apron Controllers with Automatic Speech Recognition and Understanding Integrated into an Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control System

The information air traffic controllers (ATCos) communicate via radio telephony is valuable for digital assistants to provide additional safety.Yet, satisfyer pro penguin next generation ATCos have to enter this information manually.Assistant-based speech recognition (ABSR) has proven to be a lightweight technology that automatically extracts and s

Onlay free preputial graft for mid and distal penile hypospadias

Tubularized free preputial graft for hypospadias repair had been tried in the past and discarded due to high incidence of graft shrinkage causing stricture formation.We have tried to revive the technique using onlay method thus here avoiding stricture formation.The technique was used in 33 subjects (Group A) and compared with 33 subjects in control

Research Progress in Hormonal Regulation of AP2/ERF Transcription Factors in Fruits and Vegetables in Response to Stress

The APETALA2/ethylene-responsive factor (AP2/ERF) transcription factor family is one of the largest transcription factor families in plants.Its subfamily members activate or repress the expression of related genes by specifically binding to cis-acting elements such as the GCC box and DRE/CRT in the promoter regions of downstream interacting genes,

Spot diagnosis: An ominous rash in a newborn

Abstract Purpura fulminans (PF) is an ominous cutaneous condition usually associated with meningococcemia.PF in the newborn is rarely reported.We report the case of a female apunisw2 preterm infant with extensive PF due to group B streptococcus (GBS) septicemia.She developed multi-organ system failure despite neonatal intensive care support and suc
