Nanocarrier-mediated RNAi of CYP9A306 and CYB5R enhances susceptibility of invasive tomato pest, Tuta absoluta to cyantraniliprole by Farman Ullah, Guru-Pirasanna-Pandi G, Hina Gul, Rudra Madhab Panda, Ghulam Murtaza, Zhijun Zhang, Jun Huang, Xiaowei Li, Nicolas Desneux, Yaobin Lu

“…Further, the activity of cytochrome P450 was substantially decreased after the knockdown of the CYB5R and CYP9A306 genes. This increased susceptibility of the resistant population of T. absoluta to cyantraniliprole, leading to a higher mortality rate than the controls. …”

Clustering scheme of base stations cooperation based on maximizing the average system performance by Kun LI, Kai-zhi HUANG, Jiang JI, Tao FENG, Yan-qing JIN

“…A novel clustering scheme based on maximizing average system performance was proposed.Firstly,according to the probability distribution of signal-to-interference-ratio (SIR)gain of base stations cooperation the average SIR gains were obtained.Then,the cluster structure was generated in the standard of maximizing the average system performance.Not only the average system performance was guaranteed but also the influence of CSI distortion was decreased,while the overall cost was reduced.Simulation results show that when the factors of CSI distortion and channel vibration both are 0.3,the proposed scheme provide a 0.7bit/s/Hz/cell increase of the average system performance compared with the benefit-tree clustering scheme.…”
