A century of theories of balancing selection

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 6

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Previously published data reported for the temperature dependency of the exhaustion of a mordant dye and acid dye, as well as both the exhaustion and fixation of a reactive dye and adsorption of a direct dye, on three different types of wool substrate, over a diverse range of dyeing temperatures and conditions, were re‐evaluated using the ...

The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 7

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Re‐evaluation using the Williams‐Landel‐Ferry equation, of exhaustion/fixation/adsorption data previously reported for four classes of anionic dye onto three different types of wool substrate, revealed that thermally activated dyeing/desorption behaviour is governed by the thermally regulated structural relaxation times of the respective water‐

Delipidisation of wool fibres and the subsequent beneficial properties of delipidised wool fibres

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wool fibres are complex matrices of proteins and fatty acids/lipids found both internally and externally. 18‐methyleicosanoic acid (18‐MEA) is covalently bound to the surface of the fibre via a thio‐ester link, and is considered one of the most important lipids as it is responsible for the hydrophobic properties of wool fibres.

The disappearance of malaria from Denmark, 1862–1900

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The reason for malaria's disappearance from northwestern Europe in the early twentieth century has long been discussed but remains an unresolved conundrum. This is partially due to a previous focus on the early modern era, and partially because various theories have never been tested against each other.
