Abstract: The technology described herein provides an efficient mechanism for quickly analyzing huge amounts of media content to find media content (hereafter “content” or “media content”) that is relevant to a user. The technology analyzes features of a curator to classify curators by interest and/or find curators with similar content recommendations. The curator data can be used to make curator recommendations to users based on the user's interests. The technology described herein collects curator data from multiple content sites and analyzes the data to identify curators that recommend similar content on different content sites.

Abstract: The invention relates to plants with an improved organ phenotype. In particular, the invention relates to rice plants which have better grain quality and altered seed phenotype due to increased expression of GW7 (LOC_Os07g41200) or due to a combination of increased expression of GW7 and reduced expression of GS3 (OsSPL16). Grains show increased length and increased slenderness.
