HEDGING MAIZE YIELD WITH WEATHER DERIVATIVES
This paper examines the feasibility of weather derivatives in the South African agricultural context by evaluating the merit of rainfall options as a yield risk management tool. The paper consists of three distinctive parts.

Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Derived tame and derived wild algebras
We prove that every finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field is either derived tame or derived wild. We also prove that any deformation of a derived tame algebra is derived tame.

The human gut microbiome across the life course
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

On Higher Derivatives of Expectations [PDF]
It is understood that derivatives of an expectation $E [\phi(S(T)) | S(0) = x]$ with respect to $x$ can be expressed as $E [\phi(S(T)) \pi | S(0) = x]$, where $S(T)$ is a stochastic variable at time $T$ and $\pi$ is a stochastic weighting function ...

Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Credit Risk and Credit Derivatives in Banking [PDF]
Using the industrial economics approach to the microeconomics of banking we analyze a large bank under credit risk. Our aim is to study how a risky loan portfolio affects optimal bank behavior in the loan and deposit markets, when credit derivatives to ...

This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Pricing the Weather Derivatives in the Presence of Long Memory in Temperatures [PDF]
Weather derivatives are financial contracts for which the underlying is not a traded asset. Therefore, they cannot be priced by the traditional financial theory based on the hedging portfolio and on the arbitrage-free argument.

A New Model for Pricing Collateralized OTC Derivatives
This paper presents a new model for pricing OTC derivatives subject to collateralization. It allows for collateral posting adhering to bankruptcy laws. As such, the model can back out the market price of a collateralized contract.
