DIDYMELLA FABAE PUNITH.: MATING TYPE OCCURRENCE, DISTRIBUTION AND PHENOTYPING OF THE ANAMORPH ASCOCHYTA FABAE SPEG. IN TUNISIA

Didymella fabae Punith.: mating type occurrence, distribution and phenotyping of the anamorph Ascochyta fabae Speg. in Tunisia

Faba bean ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta fabae Speg.(teleomorph: Didymella fabae Punith.), is one of the most devastating diseases of the crop.It can cause yield losses that reach 95% in conducive weather conditions.Surveys were carried out in five regions of Tunisia: Beja, Bizerte, Jendouba, Kef and Tunis-Cap Bon.A total of 513 fungal isola

Effect of magnetic field on the onset of thermal convection in a Jeffery nanofluid layer saturated by a porous medium: free-free, rigid-rigid and rigid-free boundary conditions

The effect of the magnetic field on the onset of thermal convection in a porous layer saturated by Jeffrey nanofluid is studied.Three distinct boundary conditions are considered to be free-free, rigid-rigid and rigid-free boundaries.The model used for Jeffrey nanofluid includes the effect of Brownian motion and thermophoresis.The normal mode analys

Capturing cell heterogeneity in representations of cell populations for image-based profiling using contrastive learning.

Image-based cell profiling is a powerful tool that TEXTURE PASTE compares perturbed cell populations by measuring thousands of single-cell features and summarizing them into profiles.Typically a sample is represented by averaging across cells, but this fails to capture the heterogeneity within cell populations.We introduce CytoSummaryNet: a Deep Se
