Unique starch biosynthesis pathways in wild rice revealed by multi‐omics analyses

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Australian wild rice species (AWS) possess unique starch properties characterized by a slow digestibility rate. However, the genomic and transcriptomic variations of starch‐synthesis‐related genes (SSRGs) influencing starch physiochemical properties in AWS remain unclear.

Deep MOS Spectroscopy of NGC 1316 Globular Clusters

Galaxies, 2017
The giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 is the brightest galaxy in the Fornax cluster, and displays a number of morphological features that might be interpreted as an intermediate age merger remanent (∼3 Gyr).

Intermediate Element Abundances in Galaxy Clusters

, 2002
We present the abundances of the intermediate elements obtained by performing a stacked analysis of all the galaxy clusters in the archive of the X-ray telescope ASCA. We give the abundances of Fe, Si, S, and Ni as a function of cluster temperature from 1--10 keV, and place strong upper limits on the abundances of Ca and Ar. We show that the abundances

Light Quantity Impacts Early Response to Cold and Cold Acclimation in Young Leaves of Arabidopsis

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant reactions to stress vary with development stage and fitness. This study assessed the relationship between light and chilling stress in Arabidopsis acclimation. By analysing the transcriptome and proteome responses of expanding leaves subjected to varying light intensity and cold, 2251 and 2064 early response genes and proteins were ...

Metals in Star-forming Galaxies with KCWI. I. Methodology and First Results on the Abundances of Iron, Magnesium, and Oxygen

The Astrophysical Journal
Understanding the chemical enrichment of different elements is crucial to gaining a complete picture of galaxy chemical evolution. In this study, we present a new sample of 46 low-redshift, low-mass star-forming galaxies at M _* ∼ 10 ^8−10 M _⊙ along ...

The redshift evolution of oxygen and nitrogen abundances in emission-line SDSS galaxies

, 2010
The oxygen and nitrogen abundance evolutions with redshift and galaxy stellar mass in emission-line SDSS galaxies are investigated. This is the first such study for nitrogen abundances, and it provides an additional constraint for the study of the ...

Lessons from the void: What Boltzmann brains teach

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract Some physical theories predict that almost all brains in the universe are Boltzmann brains, that is, short‐lived disembodied brains that are accidentally assembled as a result of thermodynamic or quantum fluctuations. Physicists and philosophers of physics widely regard this proliferation as unacceptable, and so take its prediction as a basis ...

The Vertical Metallicity Gradient of the Galactic Disk for Mono-age Stellar Populations in LAMOST

The Astrophysical Journal
The vertical metallicity gradient of the Galactic disk offers valuable insights into the disk’s formation and chemical evolution over time. We utilized the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fibre Spectroscopic Telescope low-resolution spectral young stellar ...

Hunting for Paradoxes: A Research Strategy for Cognitive Science

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract How should we identify interesting topics in cognitive science? This paper suggests that one useful research strategy is to hunt for, and attempt to resolve, paradoxes: that is, apparent or real contradictions in our understanding of the mind and of thought.

A Perspective on the Milky Way Bulge Bar as Seen from the Neutron-capture Elements Cerium and Neodymium with APOGEE

The Astrophysical Journal
This study probes the chemical abundances of the neutron-capture elements cerium and neodymium in the inner Milky Way from an analysis of a sample of ∼2000 stars in the Galactic bulge bar spatially contained within ∣ X _Gal ∣ < 5 kpc, ∣ Y _Gal ∣ < 3.5 ...
