LeMMINGs. III. The e-MERLIN Legacy Survey of the Palomar sample. Exploring the origin of nuclear radio emission in active and inactive galaxies through the [O III] -- radio connection
(2021-12-01)What determines the nuclear radio emission in local galaxies? To address this question, we combine optical [O iii] line emission, robust black hole (BH) mass estimates, and high-resolution e-MERLIN 1.5-GHz data, from the ... -
Length of polynomials over finite groups
(2015-12-01)We study the length of polynomials over finite simple non-Abelian groups needed to realize Boolean functions. We apply the results for bounding the length of 5-permutation branching programs recognizing a Boolean set. ... -
Length of stay as a performance indicator : robust statistical methodology
(2005)Length of stay (LOS) is an important performance indicator for costing and hospital management and a key measure of efficiency of NHS. However, LOS is difficult to analyse because its statistical distribution is non-normal ... -
Leptin-based hexamers facilitate memory and prevent amyloid-driven AMPA receptor internalisation and neuronal degeneration
(2022-11-29)Key pathological features of Alzheimer's disease (AD) include build-up of amyloid β (Aβ), which promotes synaptic abnormalities and ultimately leads to neuronal cell death. Metabolic dysfunction is known to influence the ... -
Leptosphaeria biglobosa inhibits the production of sirodesmin PL by L. maculans
(2022-11-29)BACKGROUND: Phoma stem canker is caused by two coexisting pathogens, Leptosphaeria maculans and L. biglobosa. They coexist because of their temporal and spatial separations, which are associated with the differences in ... -
Leptosphaeria maculans isolates with variations in AvrLm1 and AvrLm4 effector genes induce differences in defence responses but not in resistance phenotypes in cultivars carrying the Rlm7 gene
(2023-03-28)BACKGROUND The phoma stem canker pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans is one of the most widespread and devastating pathogens of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in the world. Pathogen colonization is stopped by an interaction of ... -
Leptosphaeria spp. and Phoma stem canker on oilseed rape in China
(2013-08)In China, the incidence of phoma stem canker observed in pre-harvest surveys from 2005 to 2012 was greater on winter oilseed rape in provinces along the Yangtze River (in May) than on spring oilseed rape in north China (in ... -
Leptosphaeria spp., phoma stem canker and potential spread of L. maculans on oilseed rape crops in China : Phoma stem canker on oilseed rape in China
(2014-06)In China, the incidence of phoma stem canker observed in pre-harvest surveys from 2005 to 2012 was greater on winter oilseed rape in provinces in central China (in May) than on spring oilseed rape in north China (in August). ... -
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Trans Aging in a U.K. Context : Critical Observations of Recent Research Literature
(2019-07-01)In this article, we provide critical observations of empirical research from leading U.K. researchers relating to the lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans older adults. We suggest learning that may be applied in ... -
Less and the more IGM transmitted galaxies from z~2.7 to z~6 from VANDELS and VUDS
(2021-03-04)Aim. Our aim is to analyse the variance of the Inter-Galactic Medium transmission (IGM) by studying this parameter in the rest-frame UV spectra of a large sample of high redshift galaxies. Method. We make use of the VIMOS ... -
Less than zero : Ursula Huws on when capitalism quit caring for workers
(2013-08-15)The Cold War’s end and the internet’s rise freed employers to go global, leaving workers worldwide wobbling, says Ursula Huws -
Lessons and lacunae? Practitioners’ suggestions for developing research-rich teaching and learning: Angles on innovation and change
(2019-03-04)This article explores a universal issue in higher education: how in practice can we secure the most productive relationships between the research universities pursue and the education they provide? It opens by drawing from ... -
Lessons for international comparative research : The case of the IASSW census
(2012-07-09)Using a case study of the IASSW census of social work education world wide, this paper examines the issues arising for international comparative research in terms of logistical planning focusing on accounting for the ... -
Lessons for the future : Safety critical systems
(IEEE COMPUTER SOC, 1999)This paper investigates the underlying flaws in the development of the LAS despatch system and compares it with similar attempts from across the globe. The common themes that seem to plague ambulance despatch systems are ... -
