Fish and amphibians as test organisms for evaluation of effects caused by chemicals [PDF]
A large number of chemicals can contaminate aquatic environments and therefore be exposed to fish and amphibians during their sensitive stages of development.

ABSTRACT Introduction Esophageal perforation (EP) is a rare but life‐threatening condition, and most cases are due to iatrogenic causes. The rest occur spontaneously, due to malignancies, or trauma. The mortality rates can approach 50%, and delayed diagnosis of EP exacerbates patient outcomes.

Classification and a toolbox for orientifold models
We provide the general tadpole conditions for a class of supersymmetric orientifold models by studing the general properties of the elements included in the orientifold group.

Hypotheses for the Adaptive Maintenance of Phenotypic Polymorphisms
Phenotypic polymorphisms offer easily observable diversity ideal for empirical and theoretical exploration, but developing and comparing hypotheses for the adaptive maintenance of polymorphism can be a challenge. Here, we propose a framework categorizing polymorphisms based on (i) one of five distinct types of maintenance selection and (ii) the context

Neotropical tadpoles: spatial and temporal distribution and habitat use at a seasonal lake in Veracruz, Mexico [PDF]
We studied a tadpole assemblage in a seasonal neotropical lake where 14 species of anurans reproduce. Tadpoles were collected monthly at nine sampling stations at depth intervals of 1 m from the surface to the bottom (13 m).

Model Building and Phenomenology of Flux-Induced Supersymmetry Breaking on D3-branes
We study supersymmetry breaking effects induced on D3-branes at singularities by the presence of NSNS and RR 3-form fluxes. First, we discuss some local constructions of chiral models from D3-branes at singularities, as well as their global embedding in ...

Target Capture Sequencing Provides Insights Into Hybridogenetic Water Frogs
The genomics of European frogs of the genus Pelophylax are intriguing due to their propensity to hybridise, the prevalence of polyploidy, and the unusual hemiclonal hybridogenetic complexes formed in many populations. This study examines the use of target capture sequencing using the Frog Cap bait set to investigate these complex systems.

Cases of albinism and leucism in amphibians in Italy: new reports
Findings of abnormally pigmented amphibian individuals provide interesting insights on intraspecific phenotypic variability as well as on variation among populations inhabiting different habitats.

Comments on the classification of orientifolds
The simple current construction of orientifolds based on rational conformal field theories is reviewed. When applied to SO(16) level 1, one can describe all ten-dimensional orientifolds in a unified framework.Comment: 9 pages, Contribution to proceedings
