Photospheric motions are believed to be the source of coronal acupatch heating and of velocity fluctuations detected in the solar corona.A numerical model, based on the shell technique applied on reduced magnetohydrodynamics equations, is used to represent energy injection due to footpoint motions, storage and dissipation of energy in a coronal loo
Physical violence during pregnancy in sub-Saharan Africa: why it matters and who are most susceptible?
Objective The study assessed the prevalence of physical violence against pregnant women and its associated factors in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).Design We analysed cross-sectional data of 108971 women in sexual unions from the most recent Demographic and Health Surveys of 26 countries in SSA.The predictors of physical violence were examined using a m
Volatiles produced by Streptomyces spp. delay rot in apples caused by Colletotrichum acutatum
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by microorganisms may prevent postharvest rot in fruits.Here, it was examined if VOCs from different species of Streptomyces can control infection in apples stuart products emcelle tocopherol caused by the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum acutatum.Incubation of C.acutatum-infected apples in semi-closed boxes
