Changes in oak (Quercus robur) photosynthesis after winter moth (Operophtera brumata) herbivory are not explained by changes in chemical or structural leaf traits [PDF]
Insect herbivores have the potential to change both physical and chemical traits of their host plant. Although the impacts of herbivores on their hosts have been widely studied, experiments assessing changes in multiple leaf traits or functions ...

Barrel-to-barrel variation of phenolic and mineral composition of red wine
The aim of the present work was to evaluate the effect of barrel-to-barrel variability on chemical characteristics of red wine. An experimental trial was carried out involving two red wines from the Portuguese DO Dão and independent replicates of French ...

What Are Kinship Terminologies, and Why Do We Care? A Computational Approach to Analyzing Symbolic Domains [PDF]
Kinship is a fundamental feature and basis of human societies. We describe a set of computational tools and services, the Kinship Algebra Modeler, and the logic that underlies these. These were developed to improve how we understand both the fundamental

A case of severe hypothyroidism due to lenalidomide
Lenalidomide, an immunomodulatory drug often used to treat multiple myeloma, can cause hypo‐ or hyperthyroidism. We present a patient being treated with lenalidomide for 2 years who developed severe hypothyroidism that was complicated by rhabdomyolysis ...

Precise nondestructive location of defective woody tissue in grapevines affected by wood diseases
Grapevine trunk diseases are major threats to viticulture. A diverse array of Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes can affect perennial and, indirectly, annual organs of grapevines.

Increasing leaf hydraulic conductance with transpiration rate minimizes the water potential drawdown from stem to leaf. [PDF]
Leaf hydraulic conductance (k leaf) is a central element in the regulation of leaf water balance but the properties of k leaf remain uncertain. Here, the evidence for the following two models for k leaf in well-hydrated plants is evaluated: (i) k leaf is
