Osteohistology of the Maastrichtian, small-bodied elasmosaurid Kawanectes lafquenianum (Sauropterygia; Plesiosauria). [PDF]
The present contribution brings new osteohistological information on the postcranial bones of Kawanectes lafquenianum and shed some light on Plesiosauria microanatomy and microstructure. The bone architecture shows variability between forelimbs and hindlimbs.

Linear Plasmids in Micrococcus: Insights Into a Common Ancestor and Transfer by Conjugation. [PDF]
Comparative analysis indicates a common ancestor for linear plasmids in Micrococcus strains from Andean Puna, suggesting that horizontal gene transfer helps native microbes survive extreme conditions. The successful transfer of pLMA1 by conjugation also shows its potential as a genetic vector.

Linaria sagrensis (Plantaginaceae), a new high mountain species from the SE Iberian Peninsula
Linaria sagrensis, from the south‐eastern Iberian Peninsula, is here newly described, illustrated, and compared with its morphologically closest relatives from L. sect. Supinae: L. pruinosa, L. nevadensis, L. glacialis and L. alpina subsp. alpina. The species is characterized by being perennial, entirely glandular‐hairy, with inflorescence dense and ...

The efficacy and safety of high‐pressure processing of food
Abstract High‐pressure processing (HPP) is a non‐thermal treatment in which, for microbial inactivation, foods are subjected to isostatic pressures (P) of 400–600 MPa with common holding times (t) from 1.5 to 6 min. The main factors that influence the efficacy (log10 reduction of vegetative microorganisms) of HPP when applied to foodstuffs are ...

Abstract This is the first study that uses multilevel modelling to analyse regional influence on the decision to invest in innovation activities of firms in a single developing country, Ecuador. Our results indicate that the decision to invest in R&D and in other innovation activities are conditioned by the region in which the firm is located. Regional
