SATELLITE DWARF GALAXIES IN A HIERARCHICAL UNIVERSE: THE PREVALENCE OF DWARF-DWARF MAJOR MERGERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 Mergers are a common phenomenon in hierarchical structure formation, especially for massive galaxies and clusters, but their importance for dwarf galaxies in the Local Group remains poorly understood. We investigate the frequency of major mergers between dwarf galaxies in the Local Group using the ELVIS suite of cosmological zoom-in dissipationless ...

Characterization of the Auxin Efflux Transporter PIN Proteins in Pear
Plants, 2020 PIN-FORMED (PIN) encodes a key auxin polar transport family that plays a crucial role in the outward transport of auxin and several growth and development processes, including dwarfing trees.

Multiparental mapping of plant height and flowering time QTL in partially isogenic sorghum families. [PDF]
, 2014 Sorghum varieties suitable for grain production at temperate latitudes show dwarfism and photoperiod insensitivity, both of which are controlled by a small number of loci with large effects.

Identification and expression characterization of apple β-tubulin gene family in apple [PDF]
Guoshu xuebao[Objective] Microtubule is composed of α-and β-tubulin heterodimers. It is known that α- and β-tubulins are encoded with large family genes and selected expression of α-and β-tubulin family genes plays key roles in regulating various biological processes,

THE FORNAX DWARF GALAXY AS A REMNANT OF RECENT DWARF-DWARF MERGING IN THE LOCAL GROUP [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2012 We present results from the first numerical analysis to support the hypothesis, first proposed in Coleman et al. (2004), that the Fornax dwarf galaxy was formed from the minor merging of two dwarfs about 2 Gyr ago. Using orbits for the Fornax dwarf that are consistent with the latest proper motion measurements, our dynamical evolution models show that ...

RESOLVED SPECTROSCOPY OF A BROWN DWARF BINARY AT THE T DWARF/Y DWARF TRANSITION [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 We report resolved near-infrared imaging and spectroscopic observations of the T8.5 binary WISEP J045853.90+643452.6AB obtained with Keck/NIRC2, Keck/OSIRIS and the Keck Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics system. These data confirm common proper and radial motion for the two components, and we see the first indications of orbital motion (mostly radial ...

Hormonal Interactions Underlying Rootstock-Induced Vigor Control in Horticultural Crops
Applied Sciences, 2023 Grafting has been utilized to develop horticultural crops to increase plant vigor, yield potential, and tolerance to various environmental stresses. Grafting employs selected rootstocks of the same species or near relatives.
