Contrastant banana accessions for resistance to the burrowing nematode, based on molecular markers RAPD [PDF]

open access: yesEuphytica, 2009
This work aimed to proceed molecular characterization of seven banana accessions (Borneo, Grand Naine, 1304-06, 4249-05, 0337-02, 0323-03 and 4279-06) resistance to the nematode Radopholus similis. These accessions were selected taking in account the reproduction factor (RF) among 26 banana genotypes from a working collection belonging to Embrapa ...

Legged Locomotion in Lattices: Centipede Traversal of Obstacle‐Rich Environments

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1555, Issue 1, January 2026.
We investigated how centipedes adapted their limb stepping and body bending patterns in a dense array of rigid obstacles (vertical posts). Centipedes maintained a rapid speed in the obstacle array by adapting their gaits in several ways, including adducing their limbs along their bodies to mitigate collisions, twisting their bodies into more favorable ...
