Abstract: A method of retrofitting a building exterior with an insulation and cladding construction has a multitude of steps. One step involves placing rigid panel insulation members to certain areas of the building exterior. A subsequent step involves spraying polyurethane insulation foam to certain areas of the building exterior. And yet another step involves spraying cladding over the rigid panel insulation members placed at the building exterior, and involves spraying the cladding over the previously-sprayed polyurethane insulation foam. The sprayed cladding cures in-place and, once cured, constitutes a continuous and monolithic cladding exterior construction over the placed rigid panel insulation members and over the sprayed polyurethane insulation foam.

Abstract: A method for producing a bonded magnet, comprising: (i) low-shear compounding of a thermoplastic polymer and magnetic particles to form an initial homogeneous mixture thereof; (ii) feeding the initial homogeneous mixture into a plasticator comprising a low-shear single screw rotating unidirectionally toward a die orifice and housed within a heated barrel to result in heating of the initial homogeneous mixture until the thermoplastic polymer melts and forms a further homogeneous mixture, wherein said further homogeneous mixture is transported within threads of the single screw towards the die orifice and exits the die orifice as a solid pellet; (iii) conveying the solid pellet into a mold and compression molding the pellet in the mold, to form the bonded magnet, wherein the bonded magnet possesses a magnetic particle loading of at least 80 vol % and exhibits one or more magnetic properties varying by less than 5% throughout the bonded magnet.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to genetically modified plants, plant cells, or plant tissues wherein the genetic modification comprises expression of an exogenous nucleic acid comprising a ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase large subunit-related (PRL-1) gene or homolog thereof, in the plant, plant cell, or plant tissue; and wherein the expression of the exogenous nucleic acid comprising the PRL-1 gene or homolog thereof results in enhanced photosynthetic efficiency and/or plant biomass of the plant, plant cell, or plant tissue as compared to a wild-type plant, plant cell or plant tissue without the genetic modification. Another aspect of the current disclosure is directed to methods of enhancing photosynthetic efficiency and biomass yield in a plant, plant cell, or plant tissue, the methods comprising expressing an exogenous nucleic acid comprising a PRL-1 gene or homolog thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to genes which may be utilized to induce resistance to soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and/or other abiotic or biotic stresses. More specifically the present disclosure provides genes that, when inactivated and/or overexpressed (for example, overexpression of genes encoding kinase-dead mutants) in a plant, particularly, a soybean plant, can confer upon the plant resistance to SCN and/or other abiotic or biotic stresses. Methods of using these genes to obtain plants, particularly soybean plants, that are resistant to SCN and/or other abiotic or biotic stresses are also provided.
