Green forage yield and yield components of five oilseed rape genotypes (Brassica napus L.) in response to sowing date and harvest stage

Five oilseed rape genotypes were tested at three sowing dates and harvested at two developmental phases to determine their effects on green forage yield and yield components during 2013/14 growing season.The highest density of canopy was observed at the third sowing date (86 AB@9 - 157 plants/m2 ).Among five genotypes, AbaKus formed the most plants

R/BHC: fast Bayesian hierarchical clustering for microarray data

Abstract Background Although the use of clustering methods has rapidly become one of the standard computational AB@9 approaches in the literature of microarray gene expression data analysis, little attention has been paid to uncertainty in the results obtained.Results We present an R/Bioconductor port of a fast novel algorithm for Bayesian agglomer

A methodology for physically based rockfall hazard assessment

Rockfall hazard assessment is not simple to achieve in practice and sound, physically based assessment methodologies are still missing.The mobility of rockfalls implies a more difficult hazard definition with respect to other slope instabilities with minimal runout.Rockfall hazard assessment involves complex definitions for "occurrence probabi
