Polynomial identity testing of read-once oblivious algebraic branching programs
… terminology of boolean pseudorandomness) to a seed-length of lg2 S, which is the seed length of the pseudorandom generators of Nisan [Nis92] and Impagliazzo-Nisan-Wigderson [INW94] for read-once oblivious boolean branching programs. Thus our work can be seen as an algebraic analogue of these …

Pollination Limitation to Reproductive Success in the Missouri Evening Primrose, Oenothera Macrocarpa (Onagraceae)
… populations increasing from 24.3% to 44.8%. Seed set (proportion of ovules that set seed) increased following supplementation with the mean across populations increasing from 14.7% to 27.9%. These increases were statistically significant in two of the three populations. Failure to achieve …

Wild rice (Zizania Palustris) seed biology: germination under a changing climate
… will impact manoomin/psiɳ germination and how seed traits influence germination and early seedling growth. Specifically, I investigated how differences in winter duration, temperature, and water levels influence overall seed germination and germination rates (time to germination). In addition, …

Assessment of farmer preferences, constraints and angro-morphological variation among Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc.) accessions as a basis for seed yield selection index
… uses, preferences, crop improvement status, seed source, and production challenges. Chi-square test showed significant differences among farmers’ preferences (P ≤ 0.05) and crop improvement status (P ≤ 0.05). The results also showed that farmers faced challenges, including susceptibility to …

Characterization of Genetic Sources Associated with Restorability and Seed Dimension in Arkansas Restorer Rice Lines
… and 396R, and 2) identify QTLs associated with seed dimensions in two restorer lines. The study was performed at the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture, Rice Research and Extension Center, Stuttgart, Arkansas. Three populations resulting from crosses between 367R and Arkansas …

Games, protocols, and quantum entanglement
… while only using O(log³ 1/[epsilon]) bits of seed randomness. We call this an infinite randomness expansion protocol, because the amount N of certified output randomness is independent of the verifier's seed length. Entanglement is both a blessing and a curse for this protocol: on one hand, …
