Abstract The malicious manipulation of quantum key distribution (QKD) hardware is a serious threat to its security, as, typically, neither end users nor QKD manufacturers can validate the integrity of every component of their QKD system in practice.One possible approach to Stop Wire Harness re-establish the security of QKD is to use a redundant num
Background: Patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) exhibit abnormal neural responses when they experience particular emotions or when they evaluate stimuli with emotional value.Whether these brain responses are sufficiently distinctive to discriminate between OCD patients and healthy controls is unknown.The present study is the first to
BackgroundNon-heading Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa ssp.chinensis) is an important leaf vegetable grown worldwide.However, there has currently been not enough transcriptome and small RNA combined sequencing analysis of cold tolerance, which hinders further functional genomics research.ResultsIn this study, 63.43 Gb of clean data was obtained from
The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Monolepta occifuvis Gressitt & Kimoto (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae) was sequenced with 15,998 bp long.The sequenced genome has the standard metazoan complement of 37 genes and an A + T-rich region which is consistent with insect ancestral genome Collections arrangement.All protein-coding genes (P
A novel hybrid (e.g., vegetation, sand, cobble, rip-rap) nature-based dune structure was constructed at Cardiff State Beach in Encinitas, California, to protect a critical transportation artery from undermining and frequent flooding.A collaboration between regulators, funders, state agencies, professional practice and academia developed a high reso
