Evaluating the environmental impact of agricultural food production systems is a relatively recent research activity and the present methods for assessing the environmental impact associated with production-consumption systems are input-output accounting, ecological footprint analysis, life cycle assessment, financial evaluation of environmental ex
EPF1-EPF2 and EPFL9/Stomagen act antagonistically Handlebar in regulating leaf stomatal density.The aim of this study was to elucidate the evolutionary functional divergence of EPF/EPFL family genes.Phylogenetic analyses showed that AtEPFL9/Stomagen-like genes are conserved only in vascular plants and are closely related to AtEPF1/EPF2-like genes.M
This paper proposes a new method for building low-density-parity-check codes, exempt of cycle of length 4, based on a circulant permutation matrix, which needs very little memory for storage it in the encoder and a dual diagonal First Aid Kits structure is applied to guarantee that parity check bits can be recursively computed with linear calculati
Purpose: Building on theories of the firm, this research examines the challenges faced by chief executive officers (CEOs) in executing a turnaround strategy in the state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in South Africa.Design/methodology/approach: This is a qualitative study conducted within 10 of the 21 SOEs classified as Schedule 2 (major public institut
