Cytochrome P450s (CYPs) are the most prominent family of enzymes involved in NADPH- and O2-dependent hydroxylation processes throughout all spheres of life. CYPs are crucial for the detoxification of xenobiotics in plants, insects, and other organisms. In addition to performing this function, CYPs serve as flexible catalysts and are essential for producing secondary metabolites, antioxidants, and phytohormones in higher plants. Numerous biotic and abiotic stresses frequently affect the growth and development of plants. They cause a dramatic decrease in crop yield and a deterioration in crop quality. Plants protect themselves against these stresses through different mechanisms, which are accomplished by …


Identification Of Dialect For Eastern And Southwestern Ojibwe Words Using A Small Corpus, Kalvin Hartwig, Evan Lucas, Timothy C. Havens Jul 2023

Identification Of Dialect For Eastern And Southwestern Ojibwe Words Using A Small Corpus, Kalvin Hartwig, Evan Lucas, Timothy C. Havens

The Ojibwe language has several dialects that vary to some degree in both spoken and written form. We present a method of using support vector machines to classify two different dialects (Eastern and Southwestern Ojibwe) using a very small corpus of text. Classification accuracy at the sentence level is 90% across a five-fold cross validation and 72% when the sentence-trained model is applied to a data set of individual words. Our code and the word level data set are released openly at https://github.com/evanperson/OjibweDialect.
