Insights into microRNA regulation of flower coloration in a lily cultivar Vivian petal

open access: yesOrnamental Plant Research, 2023
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding small RNAs involved in the negative regulation of gene expression, which plays critical roles in developmental and metabolic pathways.

Distance from human settlements favors wild‐type appearance of feral cats (Felis catus) in Mediterranean woodland

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Camouflage is a common trait enabling animals to avoid detection by predators and prey. Patterns such as spots and stripes are convergent across carnivore families, including felids, and are hypothesized to have adaptive value through camouflage.

Colorful Image Colorization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Given a grayscale photograph as input, this paper attacks the problem of hallucinating a plausible color version of the photograph. This problem is clearly underconstrained, so previous approaches have either relied on significant user interaction or resulted in desaturated colorizations.

A Novel Coloration of Polyester Fabric through Green Silver Nanoparticles (G-AgNPs@PET)

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2019
This paper reports a novel route for the coloration of polyester fabric with green synthesized silver nanoparticles (G-AgNPs@PET) using chitosan as a natural eco-friendly reductant. The formation of AgNPs was confirmed by UV-visible spectroscopy.

Color patterns of the hermit crab Calcinus tibicen (Herbst, 1791) fail to indicate high genetic variation within COI gene

open access: yesNauplius, 2018
Apart from traditional characters, other data have been used for taxonomy, like color patterns. Based on the different colors (green and orange) observed for some Calcinus tibicen (Herbst, 1761) specimens, we evaluated the genetic distance for cytochrome
