Highlights • Hyperspectral imaging is an effective tool for in assessing quality parameters. •
The most abundantly used wavelengths are 601–850 nm, used in over 50% of studies. • …

There is increasing evidence that poor early growth confers an increased risk of type 2
diabetes, hypertension, and other features of the metabolic syndrome in later life. We …

Scarring is characterized by excessive synthesis and contraction of extracellular matrix. Here,
we show that fibroblasts from scarred (lesional) areas of patients with the chronic fibrotic …

CCN2 is encoded by an immediate-early gene induced in mesenchymal cells during the
formation of blood vessels, bone and connective tissue. It plays key roles in cell adhesion and …

Proper glucocorticoid exposure in utero is vital for normal fetal organ growth and maturation.
The placental enzyme, 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD2), plays a …

Automatic detection of foliar diseases in potato fields, such as early blight caused by Alternaria
solani, could allow farmers to reduce the application of plant protection products while …

Remote sensing can provide good alternatives for traditional in situ water status measurements
in orchard crops, such as stem water potential (Ψ stem ). However, the heterogeneity of …

In this study, we assessed the potential for bioenergy production of Low‐Input High‐Diversity
( LIHD ) systems in temperate West‐European conservation areas. A wide range of …

Accumulating evidence suggests that the human placental enzyme 11β-hydroxysteroid
dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD2) plays a key role in fetal development by controlling fetal …

Leek farmers tend to apply too much nitrogen fertilizer as its cost is relatively low compared
to the gross value of leek. Recently, several studies have shown that proximal sensing …
