Learning based compressive snapshot spectral light field imaging with RGB sensors.

The application of multidimensional optical sensing technologies, such as the spectral light field (SLF) imager, has become increasingly common in recent years. The SLF sensors provide information in the form of one-dimensional spectral data, two-dimensional spatial data, and two-dimensional angular measurements. Spatial-spectral and angular data are essential in a variety of fields, from computer vision to microscopy.

Ultrasensitive molecular imprinted electrochemical sensor for in vivo determination of glycine betaine in plants.

Glycine betaine (GB) is a bioactive molecule protecting plants from abiotic stress. This study fabricated an ultrasensitive molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) electrochemical sensor to perform in vivo measurements of GB. Polydopamine (PDA) was formed on the carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (COOH-MWCNTs) by spontaneous polymerisation of dopamine (DA).

Systematic Identification and Analysis of Light-Responsive Circular RNA and Co-expression Networks in Lettuce ().

Circular RNA (circRNA) is a covalently-closed single-stranded RNA molecule that plays an important role in transcriptional regulation of gene expression in a variety of species. Light intensity is a pivotal environmental factor affecting plant growth and development. However, little is known regarding photoresponsive plant circRNAs.

Identification and genetic analysis of alternative splicing of long non-coding RNAs in tomato initial flowering stage.

Alternative splicing (AS) is a key modulator of development in many eukaryotic organisms. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs that play essential regulatory roles in various developmental processes and stress responses. However, the functions of AS lncRNAs during the initial flowering of tomato are largely unknown.

Channeled compressive imaging spectropolarimeter.

A compressive imaging spectropolarimeter is proposed in this paper, capable of simultaneously acquiring full polarization, spatial and spectral information of the object scene. The spectral and polarization information is modulated through a combination of high-order retarders, a dispersion prism and a polarizer filter wheel. Using a random coded aperture, compressive sensing is applied to eliminate the channel crosstalk and resolution limitation of traditional channeled spectropolarimeters.

Impacts of biochar application rates and particle sizes on runoff and soil loss in small cultivated loess plots under simulated rainfall.

Increasing literature suggests that biochar can be used to improve soil fertility and subsequently benefit crop yield. However, the effects of biochar application rates and particle sizes on soil erosion processes have yet to be fully identified. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the influence of biochar with different application rates and particle sizes on soil erosion.

The infection and impact of Azorhizobium caulinodans ORS571 on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).

Based on our previous study, cereal crop wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) could be infected by rhizobia Azorhizobium caulinodans ORS571, and form para-nodules with the induction of 2.4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, a common plant growth regulator.

Wavelet transform based defringing in interference imaging spectrometer.

The constructive and destructive fringe-like pattern (FP) introduced by the fringing effects is a universal phenomenon emerging in the imaging system using the back-illuminated CCD. Generally, the flat fielding or modeling based methods were applied to suppressing the FP and featured as time-consuming, duplicated, and hardware-based. In this paper, a method based on the wavelet transform was proposed for the interferogram processing in interference imaging spectrometer.
