Simulation of the impacts of high temperature stress on pepper (Capsicum annum L.) yields by Bomi Park, Sojung Kim, Sumin Kim

“…PHR23, having a larger leaf area, accumulated more biomass than fruit yields in the initial month of exposure, thus increasing its yields at higher temperature conditions due to enhanced photosynthesis rates. The crop growth curve and parameters were formulated based on these studies, and the open field simulations were calibrated with measured yields from multiple locations in South Korea from 2020-2024. …”

“…Multi-parameter flow cytometry and TCR β sequencing of genomic DNA was performed on isolated PBMCs on PT days +30, +60, +100, +180, and +365.ResultsOverall, the PT-CY/BEN (n=14) regimen was associated with earlier neutrophil and platelet engraftment, reduced transfusion requirements, and comparable clinical outcomes to PT-CY (n=10), including survival and relapse rates. PT-CY/BEN patients exhibited distinct immune reconstitution patterns, characterized by earlier CD4+ T-cell recovery, impaired CD8+ T-cell engraftment, and reduced NK-cell counts. …”
