Huron Chipper a Broadly Adapted Chip-Processing Variety with Long-Term Storage Potential and Resistance to Late Blight and Common ScabNARA Subscribed
Huron Chipper is a high yielding round white chip-processing variety with resistance to late blight ( Phytophthora infestans ) and tolerance to common scab ( Streptomyces scabies ). Selected from a cross between the Michigan State University breeding lines MSQ070-1 and MSR156-7, it was designated MSW485-2 during its initial evaluation and development. Huron Chipper is high yielding and broadly adapted, showing equal or better...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) disproportionately affects women and carriers of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (APOE4), yet little is known about how sex and APOE interact to influence white matter (WM) integrity during disease progression. We integrated diffusion MRI and matched blood transcriptomic data to investigate these interactions and their underlying biological mechanisms. WM microstructure was quantified using diffusion te...
Background Cereal crops dominate arable agriculture and underpin global food supply. Cereal grain yield is closely related to crop nitrogen (N) uptake. However, excessive inputs of N fertiliser in cereal production systems can have negative environmental consequences and represent high financial risk for farmers. Scope This review explores opportunities to reduce the current reliance of the global staples, wheat ( Triticum aes...
