Exposure to host resistance mechanisms drives evolution of bacterial virulence in plants (2005)
Journal Article
Pitman, A. R., Jackson, R. W., Mansfield, J. W., Kaitell, V., Thwaites, R., & Arnold, D. L. (2005). Exposure to host resistance mechanisms drives evolution of bacterial virulence in plants. Current Biology, 15(24), 2230-2235. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2005.10.074

Bacterial pathogenicity to plants and animals has evolved through an arms race of attack and defense. Key players are bacterial effector proteins, which are delivered through the type III secretion system and suppress basal defenses [1]. In plants, v...

Diversity or the lack of it in the architectural profession (2005)
Journal Article
De Graft-Johnson, A., Manley, S., & Greed, C. (2005). Diversity or the lack of it in the architectural profession. Construction Management and Economics, 23(10), 1035-1043. https://doi.org/10.1080/01446190500394233

Approximately 37 per cent of architectural students are women and the percentage is increasing. This increase is not reflected in the architectural profession; women represent only 13 per cent of the total and analysis reveals that women are leaving...

Integrated transport planning in the UK: From concept to reality (2005)
Journal Article
Hull, A. (2005). Integrated transport planning in the UK: From concept to reality. Journal of Transport Geography, 13(4), 318-328. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtrangeo.2004.12.002

This paper explores the need for new planning authority practices and structures that can accommodate new policy demands, synergies and approaches to urban management in the UK. Initially it considers recent UK government ideas on the integration of... Read More about Integrated transport planning in the UK: From concept to reality.

Nitric oxide mediates gravitropic bending in soybean roots (2005)
Journal Article
Cai, W., Neill, S. J., Tang, Z., & Hu, X. (2005). Nitric oxide mediates gravitropic bending in soybean roots. Plant Physiology, 137(2), 663-670. https://doi.org/10.1104/pp.104.054494

Plant roots are gravitropic, detecting and responding to changes in orientation via differential growth that results in bending and reestablishment of downward growth. Recent data support the basics of the Cholodny-Went hypothesis, indicating that di... Read More about Nitric oxide mediates gravitropic bending in soybean roots.

A mathematical morphology approach to image based 3D particle shape analysis (2005)
Journal Article
Lee, J. R. J., Smith, M. L., Smith, L. N., & Midha, P. S. (2005). A mathematical morphology approach to image based 3D particle shape analysis. Machine Vision and Applications, 16(5), 282-288. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00138-005-0181-x

Angularity is a critically important property in terms of the performance of natural particulate materials. It is also one of the most difficult to measure objectively using traditional methods. Here we present an innovative and efficient approach to... Read More about A mathematical morphology approach to image based 3D particle shape analysis.

Robust and efficient automated detection of tooling defects in polished stone (2005)
Journal Article
Lee, J. R., Smith, M. L., Smith, L. N., & Midha, P. S. (2005). Robust and efficient automated detection of tooling defects in polished stone. Computers in Industry, 56(8-9), 787-801. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compind.2005.05.006

The automated detection of process-induced defects such as tooling marks is a common and important problem in machine vision. Such defects are often distinguishable from natural flaws and other features by their geometric form, for example their circ...

City centre regeneration through residential development: Contributing to sustainability (2005)
Journal Article
Thomas, C. J., Bromley, R. D., & Tallon, A. (2005). City centre regeneration through residential development: Contributing to sustainability. Urban Studies, 42(13), 2407-2429. https://doi.org/10.1080/00420980500379537

Following a discussion of recent policies for the city centre in Britain, the paper explores the contribution of residential development to aspects of sustainability, drawing on a range of survey evidence in Bristol and Swansea. The residents are fre... Read More about City centre regeneration through residential development: Contributing to sustainability.

The framing of nanotechnologies in the British newspaper press (2005)
Journal Article
Anderson, A., Allan, S., Petersen, A., & Wilkinson, C. (2005). The framing of nanotechnologies in the British newspaper press. Science Communication, 27(2), 200-220. https://doi.org/10.1177/1075547005281472

This article investigates how developments in nanotechnology were framed in the British national newspaper press during a formative period in their rising public salience. Specifically, an intervention by Prince Charles in April 2003 is shown to have... Read More about The framing of nanotechnologies in the British newspaper press.
