Grapevine Viroid
The hop stunt viroid (abbreviated HSVd, binomial name ''Hostuviroid impedihumuli'') is a viroid species that infects the common hop plant, citrus plants, grapevines, cucumber, and several ''Prunus'' species such as almond, apricot, plum, and peach. It is asymptomatic or latent in most host plants, but in some hosts it can cause stunting and other symptoms. A study of HSVd-infected hops in the USA showed that the severity of yield reduction was highly dependent on the infected hop cultivar. HSVd is a member of the Pospiviroidae family and the Hostuviroid genus. There are various different sub-species of the hop stunt viroid. Genome The hop stunt viroid has a single-stranded RNA Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a polymeric molecule that is essential for most biological functions, either by performing the function itself ( non-coding RNA) or by forming a template for the production of proteins ( messenger RNA). RNA and deoxy ... genome; the genome is 297 nucleotides long. Str ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ghostscript
Ghostscript is a suite of software based on an interpreter for Adobe Systems' PostScript and Portable Document Format (PDF) page description languages. Its main purposes are the rasterization of documents in these language,, the display or printing of document pages, and conversion between PostScript and PDF files. Features Ghostscript can be used as a raster image processor (RIP) for raster computer printers—for instance, as an input filter of line printer daemon—or as the RIP engine behind PostScript and PDF viewers. It can also be used as a file format converter, such as PostScript to PDF converter. The ps2pdf conversion program comes with the Ghostscript distribution. Ghostscript can also serve as the back-end for PDF to raster image (png, tiff, jpeg, etc.) converter; this is often combined with a PostScript printer driver in " virtual printer" PDF creators. As it takes the form of a language interpreter, Ghostscript can also be used as a general purpose programming ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Manx Language
Manx ( or , or ), also known as Manx Gaelic, is a Goidelic language, Gaelic language of the insular Celtic branch of the Celtic language family, itself a branch of the Indo-European language family. Manx is the heritage language of the Manx people. Although few children native to the Isle of Man speak Manx as a first language, there has been a steady increase in the number of speakers since the death of Ned Maddrell in 1974. He was considered to be the last speaker to grow up in a Manx-speaking community environment. Despite this, the language has never fallen completely out of use, with a minority having some knowledge of it as a heritage language, and it is still an important part of the island's Culture of the Isle of Man, culture and cultural heritage. Manx is often cited as a good example of language revitalization efforts; in 2015, around 1,800 people had varying levels of second-language conversational ability. Since the late 20th century, Manx has become more visible ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

GV (nerve Agent)
GV (IUPAC name: 2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl ''N'',''N''-dimethylphosphoramidofluoridate), also known as EA-5365 and GP ( USACC cryptonym), is an organophosphate nerve agent. GV is a part of a series of nerve agents with properties similar to the "G-series" and "V-series". Physical structure GV is an organophosphate derived from fluorotabun. It does not have a plane of symmetry and is therefore chiral. It has a melting point of -110 degrees Celsius, the lowest among all 5 GV agents. Manufacture GV is synthesized by various routes. It is synthesized on an industrial scale in a similar manner to tabun and sarin. A solution of dimethylamine, hydrofluoric acid and deanol in a molar ratio of 4:1:1 is added dropwise to a phosphoryl chloride solution under agitation. The product is filtered from the cake and then distilled under reduced pressure. GV can be synthesized in a similar manner to sarin, from a reaction between an equimolar mixture of dichlor and difluor. Toxicity It i ...
