Nucleus-Encoded Thylakoid Protein, OsY3IP1, Confers Enhanced Tolerance to Saline and Alkaline Stresses in Rice

open access: yesRice Science, 2022
Abiotic stress confers serious damage to the photosynthetic machinery, often resulting in plant growth inhibition. Hypothetical chloroplast open reading frame 3 (Ycf3)-interacting protein 1 (Y3IP1) is a nucleus-encoded thylakoid protein and plays an ...

NOCTURNAL ENCOUNTERS BETWEEN KIT FOXES [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mammalogy, 2000
Abstract Kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis) are nocturnal, monogamous, and territorial. We used telemetry to monitor nocturnal interactions of pair members with each other and neighboring foxes in central California during 1989–1991. Observed distances between mated foxes consistently were closer than expected by chance.
