An investigation on the morphological evolution of bright-rimmed clouds
(2009)A new radiative driven implosion (RDI) model based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics technique is developed and applied to investigate the morphological evolutions of molecular clouds under the effect of ionizing radiation. ... -
Investigations into Drug Delivery to the Eye: Nanoparticle Comparisons
(University of Hertfordshire, 2014-07-02)Eye disorders are on the rise as a result of an ageing population, an increasing obesity problem and a growth in the number of diabetic patients. Conventional ophthalmic formulations do not maintain therapeutic drug ... -
Investigations into Infrared-Selected Variable Stars
(2024-03-19)The diversity seen in the infrared variable sky is vast, and understudied when compared to variability in the optical regime. Utilising near-infrared (NIR) colours and amplitudes can be a powerful tool in the classification ... -

Investigations of mycoviruses from Leptosphaeria species and their effects on pathogenicity
(2018-09-10)The aims of this research were to assess the incidence of dsRNA viruses in five different plant pathogenic fungi, including Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, Dothistroma septosporum, Leptosphaeria species (Leptosphaeria maculans ... -
Investigations on Mycoviruses found in Dothistroma septosporum and Beauveria bassiana and their Effects on Fungal Pathogenicity
(2022-03-21)Mycoviruses specifically infect and replicate in fungi, and they are frequently cryptic in nature and usually associated with hypovirulence (reduced virulence) or, more unusually, hypervirulence. The research aim of the ... -
Investigations on the infection of cucumber mesophyll protoplasts with cucumber mosaic virus
(1976)Isolated protoplasts from the first leaf mesophyll of cucumber plants have been successfully infected in vitro with cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). Virus instability before, during and after inoculation of the protoplasts ... -
Investigations on the Tobacco necrosis virus D p60 replicase protein
(2013-11-21)Tobacco necrosis virus D (TNV-D), in the genus Betanecrovirus (family Tombusviridae), possesses a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genome containing six open reading frames (ORFs). Two 5'-proximal ORFs (1 and 2) encode ... -
