Due to a rapid growth in consumer electronic applications, the focus of technology is shifting towards mobile applications with emphasis on System on Chip (SoC) implementations. The design space in such applications is characterised by fast growing demand of functionality and performance, while still experiencing severe power constraints. Time to market becomes even more important, making the reduction of desi...Tue, 07 Dec 2010 13:43:29 GMTlachlan.wilson@latrobe.edu.auhttp://latrobe.technologypublisher.com/technology/6058TEC2004/052http://latrobe.technologypublisher.com/technology/6057Tue, 07 Dec 2010 13:43:23 GMTlachlan.wilson@latrobe.edu.auhttp://latrobe.technologypublisher.com/technology/6057TEC2009/043http://latrobe.technologypublisher.com/technology/6056Summary Proof of concept for a repressor/restorer male sterility system to produce hybrid seed in Arabidopsis has been achieved. The system can also be used for pollen and seed containment. The Problem Hybrid Vigor is characterised by the production of larger plants, tolerance to stress, disease resistance, uniformity and improved yield with plants often being referred to as F1 hybrids. Hybrids can only work in conjunction with pollination control mechanisms. There are three commonly used methods; mechanical (expensive, time consuming, laborious), chemical (transitory and expensive fro...Tue, 07 Dec 2010 13:43:16 GMTlachlan.wilson@latrobe.edu.auhttp://latrobe.technologypublisher.com/technology/6056MKT2010/20http://latrobe.technologypublisher.com/technology/6055Tue, 07 Dec 2010 13:43:11 GMTlachlan.wilson@latrobe.edu.auhttp://latrobe.technologypublisher.com/technology/6055
