Eugenol transport and biosynthesis through grafting in aromatic plants of the genus.

Aromatic compounds play essential roles in plant physiology and various industries because of their unique fragrances and beneficial properties. In this study, we investigated the transport and biosynthesis of eugenol, a prominent aromatic compound, within the genus, using grafting experiments. Grafting sweet basil () scions onto diverse rootstocks, including tobacco () and thyme (), revealed that eugenol is transported from the shoot to the root across distinct plant species.

Experimental investigation of the effective point of measurement for plane-parallel chambers used in electron beam dosimetry.

In this study, the effective point of measurement (EPOM) for plane-parallel ionization chambers in clinical high-energy electron beams was determined experimentally. Previous studies have reported that the EPOM of plane-parallel chambers is shifted several tens of millimeters downstream from the inner surface of the entrance window to the cavity. These findings were based on the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation, and few experimental studies have been performed.
