The research showed that the metabolism of the yeast created fluid flows around them, which helped transport nutrients further than would be possible just by diffusion.
General
The application uses Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to identify disease symptoms from images of leaves, and is small enough to be run on IoT devices.
A new study presents a comprehensive understanding of how river floods in India have evolved over the past 40 years, from 1970 to 2010, based on records of river flow from 173 different monitoring stations spread across the country.
The study from IISc found a previously unidentified yeast-like symbiont inside the lac insect Kerria lacca, which gives the insect its distinctive red colour and, may also provide other nutrients in return for shelter.
The study sheds light on a crucial protein, PfPPM2, which controls asexual division and switching between the sexual forms in Malaria-causing Plasmodium falciparum parasite, both of which are key to disease transmission.
The team observed two merging galaxies and discovered that the energy from a quasar is actively transforming the gas within its companion galaxy, thereby dictating whether new stars can form.
Researchers at IISc conducted a case study of the Koramangala Challaghatta (K&C) Valley project in Karnataka to show how mixing in traditional practices can improve water conservation.
Researchers at IIT Bombay studied how blood drops dried on tilted surfaces and what the cracks that are left behind can tell us about the blood drop.
The new method offers a straightforward approach to imprint the geometric phase from a classical laser beam and transfer it directly onto a pair of entangled photons.
A new study has confirmed that embayed beaches are experiencing critical shoreline retreats, and beaches that have seen significant human-built structures and tourism development have shown more severe erosion.
