Long-term structural health monitoring (SHM) plays an important role in the safety of public transport infrastructure such as bridges or tunnels and warns in the event of any emerging problem.This article describes development and testing of system based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors that can detect changes in strain and temperature.The firs
Introduction: Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are important plant pathogens that make large damage to the crops.The activity of root-knot nematode and reaction of host plant results in the development of several knots on the root, which interrupts water and food absorption system of the plant.Among popular methods for controlling root-knot n
This article presents small RNA sequencing data of Caenorhabditis elegans consist of P0 control worms (untreated), Fuse P0 worms treated with a plant alkaloid, sanguinarine, and its F3 offspring.The data were analyzed to identify microRNAs that were differentially expressed in both the sanguinarine-treated P0 and its descendants F3 worms.Targets of
