Customized ranking by user preference using LRR model
… e.g., service, environment, price. We used the LRR (Latent Rating Regression) model to aggregate restaurants aspect score and proposed two ranking approaches. The experiment results show that the two ranking approaches are both better than the baseline ranking approach.

Toward the understanding of TIR-NB-LRR–mediated immunity; study of the AvrRps4 recognition model in Arabidopsis
… innate immunity and is mainly mediated by NB-LRR resistance (R) proteins. However, the mechanisms by which NB-LRR proteins recognize effectors and induce downstream signaling events are poorly known. This PhD work focused on the characterization of TIR-NB-LRR–mediated immnunity in plants. In …

An investigation of gene expression, alternative splicing and nonsense-mediated decay in potato in response to Phytophthora infestans infection
… nucleotide binding leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) proteins, leading to effector-triggered immunity (ETI). Using a NB-LRR gene enrichment and RNA-seq, previous studies identified over 700 NB-LRR genes in potato.<br/><br/>Dynamic changes in alternative splicing (AS) of NB-LRR genes have been …

Impacts of Crop Residue and Cover Crops on Soil Hydrological Properties, Soil Water Storage and Water Use Efficiency of Soybean Crop
… treatments that include low residue removal (LRR) and high residue removal (HRR) were established in 2000 with randomized complete block design under no-till corn (Zea mays L.) and soybean (Glycine max L.) rotation. In 2005, cover crop treatments which include cover crops (CC) and no cover …

Improving Soybean Resistance to Cyst Nematodes and Fusaria: Near Isoline and Transgenic Analyses of the Rhg1/Rfs2 Locus and Identification of Proteins That Bind to Receptor Kinases
… were conducted on the leucine rich repeat (LRR) from RLK protein encoded by <italic>GmRLK18-1</italic> within the <italic>Rhg1/Rfs2</italic> locus. The LRR of GmRLK18-1 showed a high binding affinity to CLE-like peptides found in both nematode secretions and plant developmental control. …

Profitability of Smallholder Sugarcane Farming Systems in Tanzania: A Comparative Analysis Between Block Farming and Traditional Farming Systems in Morogoro.
… of the farming systems on loan repayment rate (LRR) has also been analysed. BFS appears to be significantly more effective than TFS on both profitability and loan repayments. Profitability, expressed as a ratio of operating income to revenue, is significantly higher by 17% in BFS (M = 0.56) than …

Das "Leucine-Rich Repeat" im Invasionsprotein Internalin B : Stabilität und Faltung eines Solenoidproteins
… Proteine, zu denen z. B. Leucine-Rich Repeat- (LRR-) oder Ankyrin-Proteine gehören, wurde dahingegen noch wenig untersucht. Die Proteine dieser Klasse sind durch einen stapelförmigen Aufbau von sich wiederholenden typischen Sequenzeinheiten gekennzeichnet, was in der Ausbildung einer elongierten …

Engineering durable late blight resistance to protect solanaceous plants
… by the potato R3a protein, a member of the CC-NB-LRR type resistance gene family. However, the closely related virulent form, AVR3a<sup>EM</sup>, which is homozygous in more than 70% of wild <i>P. infestans</i> isolates, evades this recognition.Domain swapping experiments have revealed that the …

Genome and Transcriptome Based Characterization of Low Phytate Soybean and Rsv3-Type Resistance to Soybean Mosaic Virus
… binding-leucine rich repeat (CC-NB-LRR) protein-encoding genes. This dissertation employed a comparative sequencing approach to narrow down the list of Rsv3 gene candidates to the most promising CC-NB-LRR gene. The evidence provided in this study clearly indicates a single CC-NB-LRR …

Data Mining for Selected Genes of Agronomic Interest from the Oil Palm Genome Using a Comparative Genomics Approach
… gene candidates with a predicted coiled-coil-NBS-LRR (CC-NBS-LRR) domain were detected. The analysis found that the oil palm genome contains respectively three, two, two and two distinctly expressed functional copies of the DGAT1, DGAT2, DGAT3 and WS/DGAT genes. Moreover, this study also able to …

Genes and mechanisms in Arabidopsis innate immunity against Leptosphaeria maculans
… revealed that resistance was dependent on TIR-NB-LRR resistance genes (RLM1Col and RLM2Ler), which were independent of signalling components previously associated to all TIR-NB-LRR resistance genes. RLM1Col was found to be responsible for L. maculans induced callose depositions. A segregant …
