THE ASSIMILATE PARTITIONING IMPORTANCE FOR HEARTWOOD EXTRACTIVES FORMATION IN ROBINIA PSEUDOACACIA L. OF DIFFERENT AGES

The Assimilate Partitioning Importance for Heartwood Extractives Formation in Robinia Pseudoacacia l. of Different Ages

ABSTRACTThis study aimed to investigate the influence of tree age on the assimilates partitioning and its significance for the formation of heartwood extractives in Robinia pseudoacacia L.(black locust).Assimilate translocation in 6- and 15-year-old plants was measured in May and August 2006 using the 14CO2 feeding method.The heartwood extractives

An Effective Coordination Strategy for Voltage Regulation in Distribution System Containing High Intermittent Photovoltaic Penetrations

In recent years, with increasing the penetration of renewable-based distributed generations, voltage control plays a vital role in operating distribution systems.Furthermore, the traditional voltage control devices are not fast enough to regulate the voltage due to transient events and the intermittent characteristics of renewable energy sources.On

A Role for the Claustrum in Salience Processing?

The claustrum (CLA) is a subcortical structure, present only in mammals, whose function remains uncertain.Previously, using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) in awake head-fixed rats, we found evidence that the CLA is part of the rodent homolog of the default mode network (DMN; Smith et al., 2017).This network emerged as
