The failure rate of sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR) specific components was evaluated based on the operating experience in existing SFRs by applying the Hierarchical Bayesian Method, which can consider a plant-to-plant variability.
We conclude that, when using "omics" technologies, it is extremely important to eliminate all potential differences due to factors not related to the ones under study, and to understand the role of natural plant-to-plant variability in the encountered differences.
Low plant-to-plant variability positively contributes to the yield increases in corn inbreds [ 9].
The expression analysis again revealed a very high plant-to-plant variability in the T2 stage, but also a very strong down-regulation of gene expression in the T3 generation.
Despite the enormous advances in 'omics' sciences, providing powerful tools for plant genotyping, the identification of the genetic bases of sugar-related traits is hindered by the lack of adequate phenotyping methods that are able to address strong within-plant variability.
When analyzing the metabolite correlations in different plant samples at different sampling points in time one has to consider three potential contributions to the data: Short-term fluctuations in the metabolites' concentrations represented by all plant samples at a given time point may either reflect intrinsic noise or may originate from plant-to-plant variability.
japonica, O. glaberrima and O. rufipogon nshb and thb genes revealed that in these plants variability is higher in nshbs than in thbs and that these genes evolved under the effect of neutral selection.
Specific questions have been raised about the emission impacts and uncertainty around liquefaction plants [16], variability in power plants emissions [7], power plant efficiency [17], and natural gas end use [7, 8].
Past information of normalized permeate flux and salt passage were introduced as unique input variables along with process operating parameters to capture short-term plant performance variability.
The demonstration of seasonal and plant fraction variability in P. oceanica isotopic composition provides a broader perspective to seagrass ecological and physiological studies.
The stable isotope ratios of seagrass leaves (intermediate and adult), rhizomes, leaf litter and aegagropiles were compared over 1 year in order to distinguish between seasonal and plant part variability.
