A MULTI-LEVEL NON-UNIFORM SPATIAL SAMPLING METHOD FOR ACCURACY ASSESSMENT OF REMOTE SENSING IMAGE CLASSIFICATION RESULTS

A Multi-Level Non-Uniform Spatial Sampling Method for Accuracy Assessment of Remote Sensing Image Classification Results

Accuracy assessment of classification results has important significance for the application of remote sensing images, which can be achieved by sampling methods.However, the existing sampling methods either ignore spatial correlation or do not consider spatial heterogeneity.Here, we proposed a multi-level non-uniform spatial sampling method (MNSS)

Molecular analysis of an integrative conjugative element, ICEH, present in the chromosome of different strains of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae

Diversification of bacterial species and pathotypes is largely caused by lateral gene transfer (LGT) of diverse mobile DNA elements such as plasmids, phages, transposons and genomic islands.Thus, acquisition of new phenotypes by LGT is very important for bacterial evolution and relationship with hosts.This paper reports a 23 kb region containing fo

Infection with a novel polymycovirus enhances growth, conidiation and sensitivity to UV-B irradiation of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae

Metarhizium anisopliae is a well-studied entomopathogenic fungus that is widely used in biological control programs.The presence of polymycoviruses in this fungus is common, but their effects on fungal development and stress tolerance are not well understood.In this study, we report the discovery of a novel double-stranded RNA virus, named Metarhiz
