At the birth of supergenes, the genomic landscape is dramatically re-organized leading to pronounced differences in phenotypes and increased intrasexual diversity. Two of the best-studied supergenes in vertebrates are arguably the inversion polymorphisms on chromosomes 2 and 11 in the white-throated sparrow ( Zonotrichia ...

Structure-activity relationship study of steroidal 1,2,4,5-tetraoxane animalarials using computational procedures [PDF]
A three-dimensional QSAR pharmacophore model for antimalarial activity of steroidal 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes was developed from a set of 17 substituted antimalarial derivatives out of 27 analogues that exhibited remarkable in vitro activity (below 100 ng/mL ...

Twist-bend nematics and heliconical cholesterics: a physico-chemical analysis of phase transitions and related specific properties [PDF]
Certain nematic liquid crystals, e.g., those formed by banana-shaped molecules, can exhibit a low-temperature twist-bend nematic (Ntb) phase. Upon addition of chiral dopants, a chiral version of the twist-bend phase (N*tb) can be observed below the conventional chiral nematic (N*) phase, while under electric field the N* phase is transformed into a ...

Abstract We describe a case of fungal keratitis due to Beauveria bassiana in a farmer with Fuchs' dystrophy, treated with amphotericin B. Surgery with penetrating keratoplasty was necessary to resolve the lesions. Susceptibility testing and molecular sequencing permitted the identification and treatment of this rare aetiological agent of invasive ...
