Structural Protein-based Flexible Whispering Gallery Mode Resonators [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Nature provides a set of solutions for photonic structures that are finely tuned, organically diverse and optically efficient. Exquisite knowledge of structure-property relationships in proteins aids in the design of materials with desired properties for building devices with novel functionalities, which are difficult to achieve or previously ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.This study introduces a microinjection technique to deliver dsRNA into the hemolymph of first instar larval thrips (L1s) via the foreleg coxa, enhancing survival rates by minimizing internal tissue damage. Significant knockdown of V‐ATPase‐B, CYP3653A2, and ApoLp‐II/I was achieved, with silencing of CYP3653A2 or ApoLp‐II/I increasing larval mortality ...

Negentropy concept revisited: Standard thermodynamic properties of 16 bacteria, fungi and algae species [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Standard molar and specific (per gram) enthalpy of formation, entropy and Gibbs free energy of formation of biomatter have been determined for 16 microorganism species, including Methylococcus capsulatus, Klebsiella aerogenes, Paracoccus denitrificans, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas C12B, Aerobacter aerogenes, Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense ...

Flock2: A model for orientation-based social flocking [PDF]
J. Theoretical Biology, vol 593, p.111880, 2024The aerial flocking of birds, or murmurations, has fascinated observers while presenting many challenges to behavioral study and simulation. We examine how the periphery of murmurations remain well bounded and cohesive. We also investigate agitation waves, which occur when a flock is disturbed, developing a plausible model for how they might emerge ...

The Paleobiolinguistics of the Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Ethnobiology Letters, 2014 Paleobiolinguistics is used to determine when and where the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) developed significance for prehistoric groups of Native America. Dates and locations of proto-languages for which common bean terms reconstruct generally accord with crop-origin and dispersal information from plant genetics and archaeobotany ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.The role of 3 mitochondrial complex I gene in host expansion of Bactrocera tau was verified by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system. A stable homogenous strain (Btndufa7‐/‐) of B.tau was established after silencing Ndufa7. The reduced size of larvae and pupae of Ndufa7 knockout strain was first found.Then different levels of fitness and relative expression ...

Hierarchical approaches for flexible and interpretable binary regression models [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Binary regression models are ubiquitous in virtually every scientific field. Frequently, traditional generalized linear models fail to capture the variability in the probability surface that gives rise to the binary observations and novel methodology is required.
