HIGH-LEVEL ACCUMULATION OF EXOGENOUS SMALL RNAS NOT AFFECTING ENDOGENOUS SMALL RNA BIOGENESIS AND FUNCTION IN PLANTS

High-Level Accumulation of Exogenous Small RNAs Not Affecting Endogenous Small RNA Biogenesis and Function in Plants

RNA silencing is a fundamental plant defence and gene control mechanism in plants that are directed by 20-24 nucleotide (nt) small interfering RNA (siRNA) and microRNA (miRNA).Infection of plants with viral pathogens or transformation of plants with RNA interference (RNAi) constructs is usually associated with high levels of exogenous siRNAs, but i

Resilience-based optimization model for emergency bus bridging and dispatching in response to metro operational disruptions.

Bus-bridging evacuation services can significantly enhance metro resilience during operational disruptions.A resilience-based optimization model was proposed to generate a bus bridging and dispatching plan.The objective of the model is to maximize the resilience index of evacuated passengers while meeting pre-established restrictions on operational
