Ribosomal small subunit sequence diversity of Scutellospora within single spores and roots of bluebell from a woodland community. [PDF]

, 1999
Roots of bluebell (Hyacinthoides nonscripta) were sampled from a woodland in Yorkshire,UK and spores of an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Scutellospora sp., were obtained from the surrounding soil.

Germination and Amplification of Anthrax Spores by Soil-Dwelling Amoebas [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012
ABSTRACT While anthrax is typically associated with bioterrorism, in many parts of the world the anthrax bacillus ( Bacillus anthracis ) is endemic in soils, where it causes sporadic disease in livestock. These soils are typically rich in organic matter and calcium that promote survival of resilient

Dynamic Centrifuge Test and Numerical Modelling of the Seismic Response of the Tunnel in Cohesive Soil Foundation

Buildings, 2022
Few studies have been published on the dynamic centrifuge model test of cohesive soil under earthquake action. The seismic response of cohesive soil foundation and tunnel was studied by the centrifuge experiment and numerical modelling.

Modeling seismic wave propagation and amplification in 1D/2D/3D linear and nonlinear unbounded media

, 2010
To analyze seismic wave propagation in geological structures, it is possible to consider various numerical approaches: the finite difference method, the spectral element method, the boundary element method, the finite element method, the finite volume ...

Substrate specificity of Burkholderia pseudomallei multidrug transporters is influenced by the hydrophilic patch in the substrate‐binding pocket

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Multidrug transporters BpeB and BpeF from the Gram‐negative pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei have a hydrophilic patch in their substrate‐binding pocket. Drug susceptibility tests and growth curve analyses using an Escherichia coli recombinant expression system revealed that the hydrophilic patches of BpeB and BpeF are involved in the substrate ...

Soil amplification in probabilistic ground motion hazard analysis

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2016
The article presents a comparison of different probabilistic methods for ground motion hazard assessments that include site effects. The approaches examined here were selected and refined during the different phases of the S2-Project, which this journal volume is addressed to.

Naked cuticle is essential for Drosophila wing development beyond Wingless signaling

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Naked cuticle (Nkd), a Wnt signaling inhibitor, assumes extensive roles in Drosophila wing development. Overexpressing Nkd causes smaller, crumpled wings, while also perturbing multiple signaling pathways and developmental genes. A specific region (R1S) is critical for Nkd's function as a signaling integrator, offering new insights for studying its ...
