Mapping of soil suitability for medicinal plants using machine learning methods.

Inadequate conservation of medicinal plants can affect their productivity. Traditional assessments and strategies are often time-consuming and linked with errors. Utilizing herbs has been an integral part of the traditional system of medicine for centuries.

Efficient Hybrid Blind Watermarking in DWT-DCT-SVD with Dual Biometric Features for Images.

In the modern era of virtual computers over the notional environment of computer networks, the protection of influential documents is a major concern. To bring out this motto, digital watermarking with biometric features plays a crucial part. It utilizes advanced technology of cuffing data into digital media, i.

Dual-function protein in plant defence: seed lectin from Dolichos biflorus (horse gram) exhibits lipoxygenase activity.

Plant-pathogen interactions play a vital role in developing resistance to pests. Dolichos biflorus (horse gram), a leguminous pulse crop of the subtropics, exhibits amazing defence against attack by pests/pathogens. Investigations to locate the possible source of the indomitable pest resistance of D.

Expression of Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda factor C cDNA.

The cDNA encoding Factor C (FC) from the Singaporean horseshoe crab Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda has been studied for in vitro coupled transcription-translation (TnT) under the T7 promoter. Two species of full length cDNA, CrFC26 and CrFC21 which differ in length and nucleotide sequence at their 5' untranslated regions (UTR) were used in this study. Wild type CrFC26 with a long 5' UTR containing multiple "false" ATGs failed to generate a translated product.

Neuroanatomy of Cysticercus cellulosae (Cestoda) as revealed by acetylcholinesterase and nonspecific esterase histochemistry.

The nervous system of Cysticercus cellulosae, the metacestode stage of the tapeworm Taenia solium, was delineated using histochemical methods for the localization of the enzyme markers; nonspecific esterase and acetylcholinesterase. The main features of the nervous system include a pair of cerebral ganglia, a circumcerebral nerve ring, a rostellar nerve ring, and anterior and posterior nerves and their branches. The posterior nerves form a subtegumental network in the strobila and the bladder wall.
