Expression gradient in sheep alpha alpha and alpha alpha alpha globin gene haplotypes: mRNA levels [PDF]
Abstract We previously found that in sheep alpha alpha-, alpha alpha alpha-, and alpha alpha alpha alpha-globin gene haplotypes, in which individual genes encode distinct allelic variants, the gene expression determined at protein level progressively decreases from the 5′ to the 3′ end.

Ab initio alpha–alpha scattering [PDF]
Processes involving alpha particles and alpha-like nuclei comprise a major part of stellar nucleosynthesis and hypothesized mechanisms for thermonuclear supernovae. In an effort towards understanding alpha processes from first principles, we describe in this letter the first ab initio calculation of alpha-alpha scattering.

Impacts of invasive alien fish species— Micropterus salmoides and Lepomis macrochirus (Actinopterygii, Centrarchiformes, Centrarchidae)—on freshwater fish communities in lakes and reservoirs of Korea: A five-year monitoring study [PDF]
Invasive alien fish species, such as the largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides (Lacepède, 1802), and bluegill, Lepomis macrochirus Rafinesque, 1819, have rapidly spread across freshwater ecosystems in Korea, raising serious ecological threats.

Enhancement of Nuclear Fusion in Plasma Oscillation Systems
Concepts of dynamic oscillations of positive and negative ions to enhance fusion reactions are examined in this paper. Collective oscillations of positive and negative ions produce large oscillating electrostatic fields and could provide a significant ...

Suppressed ion-scale turbulence in a hot high-β plasma
Magnetic fusion reactors with higher ratio of plasma kinetic pressure to magnetic pressure are economically desirable. The authors demonstrate a path to such a reactor in a field reversed configuration that can attain microstability and reduced particle ...

New distributional record of the Indo-Pacific tropical sand goby, Favonigobius reichei (Actinopterygii, Gobiiformes, Gobiidae), from Jeju-do Island, Korea [PDF]
Two specimens, a male–female pair of Favonigobius reichei (Bleeker, 1854) (32.7–41.9 mm SL) were collected from the intertidal zone based on sandy and muddy areas in Jeju-do Island, Korea.
