Abstract Aim Species responses to global warming will depend on intraspecific diversity, yet studies of factors governing biogeographic patterns of variability are scarce. Here, we investigate the evolutionary processes underlying genetic and phenotypic diversity in the flightless and cold‐adapted grasshopper Sigaus piliferus, and project its suitable ...

Rethinking urban quality of life: Unveiling causality links using cognitive mapping, neutrosophic logic and DEMATEL [PDF]
Quality of life (QoL) is an important issue that reflects changes around the world caused not only by human population density, growth, and related initiatives but also by crises and pandemics.

Bacterial and mammalian cells are rich in putrescine, spermidine, and spermine. Polyamines are required for optimum fitness, but the biological function of these small aliphatic compounds has only been partially revealed. Known functions of polyamines include interaction with nucleic acids that alters gene expression and with proteins that modulate ...

The phenazine pyocyanin is a terminal signalling factor in the quorum sensing network of Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
Certain members of the fluorescent pseudomonads produce and secrete phenazines. These heterocyclic, redox-active compounds are toxic to competing organisms, and the cause of these antibiotic effects has been the focus of intense research efforts.

Research Division flammable gas system calibration procedure and stability studies
The number of detectors which shifted from initial 50% LEL calibration by more than 5% over 90 days period is small enough in order to increase the time interval between calibrations at least to 120 days, but with any further increase in time between the

Type II GaSb/GaAs quantum rings with extended photoresponse for efficient solar cells [PDF]
The introduction of GaSb quantum dots (QDs) within a GaAs single junction solar cell is attracting increasing interest as a means of absorbing long wavelength photons to extend the photoresponse and increase the short-circuit current.

Total and Potentially Active Bacterial Communities Entrapped in a Late Glacial Through Holocene Ice Core From Scarisoara Ice Cave, Romania [PDF]
Our understanding of the icy-habitat microbiome is likely limited by a lack of reliable data on microorganisms inhabiting underground ice that has accumulated inside caves.

Understanding aroma and flavour formation in baked confectionery products, as influenced by sugar and fat [PDF]
This thesis directly addresses consumer demands for ‘clean-label’, sustainable and natural ingredients in baked confectionery products. Baked confectionery products are a prime matrix to explore alternative sucrose replacers due to the critical ...

Oidium neolycopersici: Intra-specific variability inferred from AFLP analysis and relationship with closely related powdery mildew fungi infecting various plant species [PDF]
Previous works indicated a considerable variation in the pathogenicity, virulence, and host range of Oidium neolycopersici isolates causing tomato powdery mildew epidemics in many parts of the world.
