Recognizing a need in cultivated hexaploid oat ( L.) for a reliable set of reference single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), we have developed a 6000 (6K) BeadChip design containing 257 Infinium I and 5486 Infinium II designs corresponding to 5743 SNPs.Of those, 4975 SNPs yielded successful assays after array manufacturing.These SNPs were discovere
A Wavelet-Based Steganographic Method for Text Hiding in an Audio Signal
The developed method of steganographic hiding of text information in an audio signal based on the wavelet transform acquires a deep meaning in the conditions of the use by an attacker of deliberate unauthorized manipulations with a steganocoded audio signal to distort the text information embedded in it.Thus, increasing the robustness of the stego-
Fetal Calf Serum Exerts an Inhibitory Effect on Replication of Duck Hepatitis A Virus Genotype 1 in Duck Embryo Fibroblast Cells
Among the causative agents of duck viral hepatitis, duck hepatitis A virus genotype 1 (DHAV-1) is the most common virus reported in most outbreaks worldwide.How to propagate DHAV-1 in cell cultures efficiently remains a problem to be explored.Here, we aimed to test the effect of serum type on DHAV-1 replication in duck embryo fibroblast (DEF) cells
Reranking candidate gene models with cross-species comparison for improved gene prediction
Abstract Background Most gene finders score candidate gene models with state-based methods, typically HMMs, by combining local properties (coding potential, splice donor and acceptor patterns, etc).Competing models with Pet Care Products similar state-based scores may be distinguishable with additional information.In particular, functional and comp
A new heuristic non-linear approach for modeling the variable slope angles in open pit mine planning algorithms
In this paper a new non-linear heuristic approach has been developed to model the variable slope angles in the open pit optimization algorithms that is based on a simple inverse distance formulation.In the primary approaches, a fixed value of slope angle is considered and it is usually based on special block configurations such as 1:5, 1:9 and 1:5:
