Most-Probable-Number-Based Minimum Duration of Killing Assay for Determining the Spectrum of Rifampicin Susceptibility in Clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis Isolates

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2021
Accurate antibiotic susceptibility testing is essential for successful tuberculosis treatment. Recent studies have highlighted the limitations of MIC-based phenotypic susceptibility methods in detecting other aspects of antibiotic susceptibilities in bacteria.

Elucidating the Mechanism of Trypanosoma cruzi Acquisition by Triatomine Insects: Evidence from a Large Field Survey of Triatoma infestans

open access: yesTropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2020
Blood-sucking triatomine bugs transmit the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiologic agent of Chagas disease. We measured the prevalence of T. cruzi infection in 58,519 Triatoma infestans captured in residences in and near Arequipa, Peru. Among

Cumulative effects of widespread landscape change alter predator–prey dynamics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Predator search efficiency can be enhanced by anthropogenic landscape change, leading to increased predator–prey encounters and subsequent prey population declines. Logging increases early successional vegetation, providing ungulate forage.

Integrating Syntactic and Prosodic Information for the Efficient Detection of Empty Categories [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We describe a number of experiments that demonstrate the usefulness of prosodic information for a processing module which parses spoken utterances with a feature-based grammar employing empty categories.

Convergence of some leader election algorithms [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2008
We start with a set of n players. With some probability P(n,k), we kill n-k players; the other ones stay alive, and we repeat with them. What is the distribution of the number X n of phases (or rounds) before getting only one player? We present a
