Thermal and photochemical reactions of THF solutions of the carbonylate salts A[Mn(CO) 5 ],
A[Co(CO) 4 ], and A[Re(CO) 5 ] (A = Na, PPN) with suspensions of C 60 result in electron …

The thermal and photochemical reactions of M[Mn(CO) 5 ] (M = Na, PPN) with C 60 and the
photochemical reaction of Mn 2 (CO) 10 with M[C 60 ] give the same green complex of Mn(−I)…

Background The limited success of traditional diet focused obesity interventions has led to
the development of alternative non-dieting approaches. The current study evaluated the …

Root growth in the field is often slowed by a combination of soil physical stresses, including
mechanical impedance, water stress, and oxygen deficiency. The stresses operating may …

Root elongation in drying soil is generally limited by a combination of mechanical impedance
and water stress. Relationships between root elongation rate, water stress (matric potential)…

Reliable techniques for screening large numbers of plants for root traits are still being
developed, but include aeroponic, hydroponic and agar plate systems. Coupled with digital …

… /m in the top layer and 0.85 Mg/m 3 in the bottom layer. The root elongation rate in the top
layer of 1.4 Mg/m … rate in the top layer of 0.85 Mg/m 3 soil (penetrometer resistance-0.06 MPa). …

… M-algorithm [4] retains only the M best trellis paths of finite length L at each depth in the trellis,
where M … the contender paths and stores only the best M paths that emerge from the sorter. …

Plant roots have considerable impact on the mechanical stability of soil, but to date the underlying
mechanisms have been poorly quantified. In this study, controlled laboratory studies of …

Root caps provide a protective layer in front of the meristem that protects the meristem from
abrasion by soil particles. The continuous production and sloughing of the root cap cells may …
