Relation between Changes in Photosynthetic Rate and Changes in Canopy Level Chlorophyll Fluorescence Generated by Light Excitation of Different Led Colours in Various Background Light

Using light emitting diodes (LEDs) for greenhouse illumination enables the use of automatic control, since both light quality and quantity can be tuned.Potential candidate signals when using biological feedback for Rangehood Switch Box light optimisation are steady-state chlorophyll a fluorescence gains at 740 nm, defined as the difference in stead

Humanized substitutions of Vmat1 in mice alter amygdala-dependent behaviors associated with the evolution of anxiety

Summary: The human vesicular monoamine transporter 1 (VMAT1) harbors unique substitutions (Asn136Thr/Ile) that affect monoamine uptake into synaptic vesicles.These substitutions are absent in all known mammals, suggesting their contributions to distinct aspects of human behavior modulated by monoaminergic transmissions, Microwaves such as emotion a
