The aim of the research was (i) to evaluate white and cream strains of A. bisporus yields when challenged or not with the pathogen L. fungicola, (ii) to identify the more aggressive pathogen isolates, and (iii) to develop a diagrammatic scale of spot symptoms on infected mushrooms. The experiment was carried out using two strains of A. bisporus (white and cream strains, ABI 19/01 and PB 19/01, respectively) and four isolates of L. fungicola (LF 19/01, FL 19/02, LF 19/03, and LF 19/04). The A. bisporus white strain (ABI 19/01) reached a higher yield of healthy mushrooms compared to the cream strain (PB 19/01) with values of 23.8 and 14.1%, respectively. The LF 19/03 pathogen was most aggressive, reducing the yield of healthy mushrooms by up to 64% for the PB 1/01 strain, and 49.6% for the ABI 19/01 strain. Additionally, for the same isolate, larger mushroom areas were affected, while also displaying symptoms precociously during the second flush. Finally, using the set of visually displayed symptoms assessed in this study, we were able to construct a diagrammatic scale to assist commercial mushroom growers for managing diseased crops.

In this work, several plausible intra- and intermolecular photoinduced processes of the Watson-Crick base pairs of adenine with uracil (A-U) or thymine (A-T) according to the results of spin component scaling variant of algebraic diagrammatic construction up to the second order [SCS-ADC(2)] calculations are discussed. Although widely explored, these systems lack complete characterization of possible intramolecular relaxation channels perturbed by intermolecular interactions. In particular, we address the still open debate on photodeactivation purine-ring puckering at the C2 or C6-atom position of adenine.

We present a comprehensive, combined experimental and theoretical study of the core-level photoelectron and near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra of 2-thiouracil, 4-thiouracil, and 2,4-dithiouracil at the oxygen 1s, nitrogen 1s, carbon 1s, and the sulfur 2s and 2p edges. X-ray photoelectron spectra were calculated using equation-of-motion coupled-cluster theory (EOM-CCSD), and NEXAFS spectra were calculated using algebraic diagrammatic construction and EOM-CCSD. For the main peaks at O and N 1s as well as the S 2s edge, we find a single photoline.

Self-propelling organisms locomote via generation of patterns of self-deformation. Despite the diversity of body plans, internal actuation schemes and environments in limbless vertebrates and invertebrates, such organisms often use similar traveling waves of axial body bending for movement. Delineating how self-deformation parameters lead to locomotor performance (e.

Quantum Monte Carlo Algebraic Diagrammatic Construction (QMCADC) has been proposed as a reformulation of the second-order ADC scheme for the polarization propagator within the projection quantum Monte Carlo formalism. Dense-sparse partitioning and importance ranking filtering strategies are now exploited to accelerate its convergence and to alleviate the sign problem inherent in such calculations. By splitting the configuration space into dense and sparse subsets, the corresponding projection operator is decomposed into four distinct blocks.
