Deficiency in Lipoteichoic Acid Synthesis Causes a Failure in Executing the Colony Developmental Program in Bacillus subtilis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Colonies are an abundant form of bacterial multicellularity; however, relatively little is known about the initial stages of their construction. We have previously described that colony development of the soil bacterium Bacillus subtilis is a highly ...

Spaced seeds improve k-mer-based metagenomic classification [PDF]

, 2015
Metagenomics is a powerful approach to study genetic content of environmental samples that has been strongly promoted by NGS technologies. To cope with massive data involved in modern metagenomic projects, recent tools [4, 39] rely on the analysis of k ...

Bacillus-shaped deposits composed of hexahedrally based crystals in human dental calculus. [PDF]

Scanning microscopy, 1989
In human supra- and subgingival calculus, bacillus-shaped deposits showing various rocky-pile forms composed of hexahedrally based crystals were observed by scanning electron microscopy. The crystal size measured approximately 0.1-1.5 microns. The electron probe microanalysis always detected calcium, phosphorous, and magnesium.

Interactions Between Active Matters and Endogenous Fields

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes endogenous field information and computational methods in contexts such as cancer, wounds, and biofilms. It organizes NAMs and AAMs by sensing, transmitting, and executing functions, compares their limitations, and from these contrasts proposes design strategies for next‐generation AAMs, offering perspectives to foster ...

Impact of Simulated Insect Defoliation and Timing of Injury on Cabbage Yield in Minnesota [PDF]

, 2018
In 1992 and 1994, field studies were done to assess the tolerance of transplanted cabbage to simulated insect defoliation and to determine if the defoliation level and growth stage at which defoliation begins influences final yield.
