Potato spindle tuber viroid by A. V. Kochetov, A. Y. Pronozin, N. V. Shatskaya, D. A. Afonnikov, O. S. Afanasenko

“…Interestingly, viroid replication itself does not necessarily induce strong morphological or physiological symptoms. In the case of PSTVd, disease symptoms may occur due to RNA-interference, which decreases the expression levels of some important cellular regulatory factors, such as, for example, potato StTCP23 from the gibberellic acid pathway with a role in tuber morphogenesis or tomato FRIGIDA-like protein 3 with an early flowering phenotype. …”

Effects of Payloads on Non-exhaust PM Emissions from A Hybrid Electric Vehicle during A Braking Sequence by Worawat Songkitti, Sutthiphong Sa-ard-iam, Chalermpol Plengsa-Ard, Ekathai Wirojaskunchai

“…However, various past research works claimed that EV also emit PM like conventional vehicles due to their non-exhaust emissions from brake wear, tyre wear, road surface wear, and resuspension of road dust. In addition, strong evidence showed that there was indeed a positive correlation between the weight of vehicle and amounts of non-exhaust PM emissions. …”
