MINI SEED 2 (MIS2) Encodes a Receptor-like Kinase that Controls Grain Size and Shape in Rice [PDF]
Background Grain size is a key agronomic trait that is directly associated with grain yield in rice. Although several genes related to grain size in rice have been identified, our understanding of the mechanism of grain development is still limited ...

Millennial paleoclimate variations on the Central Tibetan Plateau during MIS4-MIS2 inferred from a sediment core based RPI chronology [PDF]
Lakes on the Tibetan Plateau, highly sensitive to environmental changes, play a key role in paleoclimatic studies. However, dating limitations often constrain investigations to periods before the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM).

The Epigravettian chronology and the human population of eastern Central Europe during MIS2
Abstract The goal of this paper is to refine the relative and absolute chronology of Epigravettian culture (26.5–15.0 ka) in eastern Central Europe (ECE) and clarify its relation to the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and subsequent climatic changes.

Long-term Paleomagnetic Secular Variation and Excursions from the western Equatorial Pacific Ocean (MIS2-4) [PDF]
New palaeomagnetic results are presented for the Pleistocene (MIS2-4) portion of deep-sea core MD98-2181 (MD81; Devao Gulf, Philippine Islands). MD81 is the highest resolution (similar to 50 cm ky-1) palaeomagnetic secular variation (PSV) record for similar to 12-70 ka ever recovered from equatorial latitudes (+/- 15 degrees.).
