Extragalactic Planetary Nebulae: Observational Challenges & Future Prospects

, 2004
The study of extragalactic planetary nebulae (EPN) is a rapidly expanding field. The advent of powerful new instrumentation such as the PN spectrograph has led to an avalanche of new EPN discoveries both within and between galaxies. We now have thousands

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutagenesis of CAROTENOID CLEAVAGE DIOXYGENASE 8 in tomato provides resistance against the parasitic weed Phelipanche aegyptiaca. [PDF]

, 2019
Broomrapes (Phelipanche aegyptiaca and Orobanche spp.) are obligate plant parasites that cause extreme damage to crop plants. The parasite seeds have strict requirements for germination, involving preconditioning and exposure to specific chemicals ...

Rethinking law in books versus law in action in China's first experiment of a personal insolvency regime: Towards a more debtor‐oriented procedural design

International Insolvency Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Although a local experiment, the promulgation of the Regulations of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone on Personal Bankruptcy (SPBR) in 2020 was hailed as a significant milestone in China's insolvency lawmaking which has thus far addressed only corporate insolvencies.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community abundance, functions, and symbiotic interactions revealed by root metatranscriptomes

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Paradigm shift: PCR‐free methods reveal 6–15‐fold higher arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal abundance than metabarcoding, exposing systematic underestimation across decades of research. Predictive power: AM fungal abundance serves as a community‐level trait that predicts crop yield under drought conditions.

The Relevance of Apology to Reparations for Historical Injustice

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explains the centrality of apology to an adequate account of reparations. I look in depth at what goes on in apology. As I have previously argued, apology is an expressive action through which we seek to mark adequately the significance of our own wrongdoing. I claim that apology so understood is not merely ornamental.

Effect of Dwarfing Induced by Uniconazole-P on Snow Tolerance of the Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.)

Plant Production Science, 2001
To clarify the effect of artificial dwarfing induced by uniconazole-P, a gibberellin biosynthesis inhibitor, on the snow tolerance of faba bean, we examined the snow damage, non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) concentration, and resistance to snow molds of

Capture of adeno‐associated viruses from clarified lysate by continuous flow ultracentrifugation: a comparative study of iodixanol and sucrose gradients

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Adeno‐Associated Virus vectors are widely used in gene therapy due to their safety and efficacy. Despite the interest in their therapeutical application, AAV purification remains a significant challenge. Density gradient ultracentrifugation using cesium chloride, sucrose, or iodixanol gradients are common methods for AAV ...

Astragalus ecomorphology in Quaternary elephantids

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The astragalus plays a fundamental role in the graviportal locomotion of proboscideans, reflecting the biomechanical constraints imposed by large body masses. This study analyses the morphological variability of the astragalus in Quaternary elephantids using linear biometry and 3D geometric morphometrics, incorporating an unpublished ...

Behavior and mortality of anurans on roads in the Australian tropics

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Roads are a major source of mortality for wildlife, particularly amphibians. Identifying vulnerable species and understanding any behavioral predictors of mortality helps us understand vulnerability to traffic and can inform management strategies. We investigated a 9‐species anuran community in tropical Australia with respect to 3 behavioral responses ...
