Adaptive Effects of Seeing Green Environment on Psychophysiological Parameters When Walking or Running by Walid Briki (688845)

“…Study 2 showed that running in a green environment was associated with an increased level of perceived exertion at similar speeds (compared to other color conditions), while exposure to red induced a significant decrease in the level of tension. In both studies, the preferred gait speed was not affected by the colored environment which is discussed in relation to the energy-conservation principle. …”

Discovery of new genomic regions and candidate genes implicated in the natural variation of barley peduncle length and plant height by Zenaba Khatir (22045928)

“…The presence of 23 candidate genes was discovered after predicting candidate genes underlying significant relationships. The RNA-sequencing expression profile of candidate genes revealed that the gene <i>HORVU.MOREX.r2.3HG0216310.1</i>, which was identified as a Polynucleotidyl transferase ribonuclease H-like superfamily protein, had the greatest level of expression, indicating its participation in peduncle development under these conditions. …”
