EQUIVALENT CALIBRATION METHOD BASED ON A BLACKBODY BAFFLE SUBSTITUTION FOR A LARGE EXTERNAL SURFACE-SOURCE BLACKBODY

Equivalent Calibration Method Based on a Blackbody Baffle Substitution for a Large External Surface-Source Blackbody

Highly accurate measurements of infrared systems cannot be achieved without precise radiometric calibrations.In order to correctly interpret and process infrared images and monitor the performance of infrared cameras, their radiometric calibration is also required periodically.In this paper, an equivalent calibration method is proposed based on an

The qTSN positive effect on panicle and flag leaf size of rice is associated with an early down-regulation of tillering

The qTSN4 was identified as rice QTL (Quantitative Traits Locus) increasing total spikelet number per panicle and flag leaf area but potentially reducing panicle number depending on the environment.So far, this trade-off was mainly observed at grain maturity and not specifically studied in details, limiting the apprehension of the agronomic interes

Roles of Rap1 signaling in tumor cell migration and invasion

Ras-associated protein-1 (Rap1), a small GTPase in the Ras-related protein family, is an important regulator of basic cellular functions (e.g., formation and control of cell adhesions and junctions), cellular migration, and polarization.Through its interaction with other proteins, Rap1 plays many roles during cell invasion and metastasis in differe
