Theory of periodic swarming of bacteria: application to Proteus mirabilis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The periodic swarming of bacteria is one of the simplest examples for pattern formation produced by the self-organized collective behavior of a large number of organisms.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

[Anatomic characterization of growth-rings in 80 potential tree species for dendrocronological studies in the Central Forest, Perú].

open access: yes, 2013
The knowledge about the existence of annual tree rings in tropical trees, which was already found at the beginning of the last century, was ignored by many scientists for a long time.

Tree demography dominates long‐term growth trends inferred from tree rings

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2016
Understanding responses of forests to increasing CO2 and temperature is an important challenge, but no easy task. Tree rings are increasingly used to study such responses. In a recent study, van der Sleen et al.

Lycopene inhibits angiogenesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and rat aortic rings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Angiogenesis is important for tumour vascularisation and growth, and is therefore a promising target for cancer therapy. The present study reports inhibition ofin vitroangiogenesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) as well as in rat ...

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Growth rate and ring width variability of teak, Tectona grandis (Verbenaceae) in an unmanaged forest in East Timor

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2012
Teak (Tectona grandis) is one of the most valuable timbers in international trade and an important species for tropical forestry. Teak is found on the island of East Timor but no information is available on teak growth from this region.

Identification of Charred Wood from an Ancient Charcoal Production Site in the Black Forest of Germany

open access: yesDrvna Industrija
Charcoal production sites serve as palaeoarchives and contain wood charcoal, which can be identified taxonomically and be utilized to obtain information and reconstruct the past vegetation, based on the occurrence of woody taxa.

Age, growth rate, and otolith growth of polar cod (Boreogadus saida) in two fjords of Svalbard, Kongsfjorden and Rijpfjorden

open access: yesOceanologia, 2017
This work presents biological information for polar cod (Boreogadus saida) collected with a Campelen 1800 shrimp bottom trawl in Kongsfjorden (two stations located in the inner part of the fjord adjacent to the glacier) and Rijpfjorden (one station at ...

The use of X-ray method to study annual growth variation of Pinus eldarica [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات علوم چوب و کاغذ ایران, 2013
Using non-destructive methods to study forest productivity and wood quality as well as annual growth variations deserve special importance. In this regard annual growth changes of Pinus eldarica include width of the spring and summer rings and percentage
