IN SITU PHENOTYPING OF GRAPEVINE ROOT SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE BY 2D OR 3D IMAGING: ADVANTAGES AND LIMITS OF THREE CULTIVATION METHODS

In situ Phenotyping of Grapevine Root System Architecture by 2D or 3D Imaging: Advantages and Limits of Three Cultivation Methods

The root system plays an essential role in the development and physiology of the plant, as well as in its response to various stresses.However, it is often insufficiently studied, mainly because it is difficult to visualize.For grapevine, a plant of major economic interest, there is a growing need to study the root system, in particular to assess i

Distributed Broadcast with Minimum Latency in Asynchronous Wireless Sensor Networks under SINR-Based Interference

Data broadcast is a fundamental operation in wireless sensor networks (WSNs).The existence of wireless interference makes it nontrivial to design a minimum-latency broadcast scheme, which is known to be NP-hard.Existing works all assume strict time synchronization and provide centralized TDMA scheduling algorithms.However, WSNs in practice are more

Performance evaluation of a multinational data platform for critical care in Asia [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Background: The Antifungals value of medical registries strongly depends on the quality of the data collected.This must be objectively measured before large clinical databases can be promoted for observational research, quality improvement, and clinical trials.We aimed to evaluate the quality of a multinational intensive care unit (ICU) network of

Emergency department-based 3D echocardiogram use: a case series

Abstract Background Three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) with real-time volumetric imaging Merch can be a vital modality in clinical practice.Despite its potential, it remains underutilized in the acute care setting.Case presentation We present two cases describing the use of 3DE in the emergency department (ED) for acute heart failure (AHF) an
