Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly of the Allotetraploid Gynostemma pentaphyllum Provides Novel Insights Into the Biosynthesis of Ginsenoside and Gypenoside LVI

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gynostemma pentaphyllum, a herb used in tea and traditional Chinese medicine, shows geographic variation in its production of valuable dammarane‐type ginsenosides and gypenoside LVI between populations from Suining (SN) and Nanning (NN). To elucidate the mechanisms underlying this differential metabolite accumulation, a chromosome‐level genome

On scaling limits of multitype Galton-Watson trees with possibly infinite variance

open access: yes, 2016
In this work, we study asymptotics of multitype Galton-Watson trees with finitely many types. We consider critical and irreducible offspring distributions such that they belong to the domain of attraction of a stable law, where the stability indices may ...

“You Can't Always Run Away”: Gender Reflexivity and Personal Firearms Ownership among Civilian Women Gun Owners in Israel

open access: yesSociological Inquiry, EarlyView.
This article explores the interplay between the nation‐state, gender, and security by exploring embodied experiences of Israeli women gun owners.
