Deoxyribonucleic acid of cells undergoing apoptosis is cleaved by a calcium-dependent
endonuclease into oligonucleosomal-sized fragments. These fragments can be labeled using …

Losses of floral pigmentation represent one of the most common evolutionary transitions in
flower color, yet the genetic basis for these changes has been elucidated in only a handful of …

Thousands of species will be sequenced in the next few years; however, understanding
how their genomes work, without an unlimited budget, requires both molecular and novel …

The Neolithic Revolution brought about the transition from hunting and gathering to sedentary
societies, laying the foundation for the development of modern civilizations. The primary …

Since their origin 160 million years ago, flowering plants have rapidly diversified into more
than 300,000 species, adapting to a striking array of habitats and conditions. Given their …

This study tracked changes in chlorite ion (ClO 2 – ) and chlorate ion (ClO 3 – ) concentrations
in the distribution system of the City of Laval, Québec, following use of chlorine dioxide (…

Native Americans domesticated maize (Zea mays ssp. mays) from lowland teosinte
parviglumis (Zea mays ssp. parviglumis) in the warm Mexican southwest and brought it to the …

THE essence of the path tracking (or path following) problem, in its simplest form, may be
stated as follows: devise a simple realtime guidance law that will cause an ideal vehicle to …

Threats to crop production due to climate change are one of the greatest challenges facing
plant breeders today. While considerable adaptive variation exists in traditional landraces, …

The paper develops a nonparametric estimator for the class of pairwise-interaction point
processes. The estimator is based on an approximation in statistical physics due to Percus and …
