110 Years of orthopteran cytogenetics, the chromosomal evolutionary viewpoint, and Michael White's signal contributions to the field
(Pensoft Publishers, 2010-12)
The history of the study of orthopteran chromosomes is coincident with the formulation of the chromosome theory of heredity and the rediscovery of Mendel's laws, thus with the birth of cytogenetics. We review the early ...
EF-P Dependent Pauses Integrate Proximal and Distal Signals during Translation
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
© 2014 Elgamal et al. Elongation factor P (EF-P) is required for the efficient synthesis of proteins with stretches of consecutive prolines and other motifs that would otherwise lead to ribosome pausing. However, previous ...
Changes in ectomycorrhizal fungal community composition and declining diversity along a 2-million-year soil chronosequence
(Blackwell Publishing, 2016-10)
Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal communities covary with host plant communities along soil fertility gradients, yet it is unclear whether this reflects changes in host composition, fungal edaphic specialization or priority ...
300 million years of diversification: elucidating the patterns of orthopteran evolution based on comprehensive taxon and gene sampling
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-12)
Orthoptera is the most diverse order among the polyneopteran groups and includes familiar insects, such as grasshoppers, crickets, katydids, and their kin. Due to a long history of conflicting classification schemes based ...
Falsified medicines in Africa: all talk, no action
(Elsevier, 2014-09)
Poor-quality medicines and medical products, both substandard and falsified, cause avoidable morbidity, mortality, drug resistance, and loss of faith in health systems, especially in low-income and middle-income countries.1–3 ...
Adsorption of hydrogen on the surface and sub-surface of Cu(111)
(American Institute of Physics, 2013-07-30)
The interaction of atomic hydrogen with the Cu(111) surface was studied by a combined experimental-theoretical approach, using infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy, temperature programmed desorption, and density ...
The 2018 reawakening and eruption dynamics of Steamboat Geyser, the world’s tallest active geyser
(Natl Acad Sciences, 2021)
Steamboat Geyser in Yellowstone National Park’s Norris Geyser
Basin began a prolific sequence of eruptions in March 2018 after
34 y of sporadic activity. We analyze a wide range of datasets to
explore triggering mechanisms ...
Centimetre-wave continuum radiation from the rho Ophiuchi molecular cloud
(BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, 2008-12-11)
The rho Oph molecular cloud is undergoing intermediate-mass star formation. Ultraviolet radiation from its hottest young stars heats and dissociates exposed layers, but does not ionize hydrogen. Only faint radiation from ...
FcLDP1, a Gene Encoding a Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) Domain Protein, Responds to Brassinosteroids and Abscisic Acid during the Development of Fruits in Fragaria chiloensis
(Frontiers Media, 2016)
White Chilean strawberries (Fragaria chiloensis) are non-climacteric fruits, with an exotic color and aroma. In order to discover genes involved in the development of these fruits, we identified a fragment of a gene encoding ...
Cellular and ultrastructural characterization of the grey-morph phenotype in southern right whales (Eubalaena australis)
(Public Library of Science, 2017-02)
Southern right whales (SRWs, Eubalena australis) are polymorphic for an X-linked pigmentation pattern known as grey morphism. Most SRWs have completely black skin with white patches on their bellies and occasionally on ...
