Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the world’s most important non-grain food crop and is central
to global food security. It is clonally propagated, highly heterozygous, autotetraploid, and …

The bloodsucking hemipteran Rhodnius prolixus is a vector of Chagas' disease, which affects
7–8 million people today in Latin America. In contrast to other hematophagous insects, the …

We show a straightforward workflow combining homology search in Rhodnius prolixus genome
sequence with cloning by rapid amplification of cDNA ends and mass spectrometry. We …

We apply Approximate Entropy (ApEn) algorithm in order to recognize epileptic activity in
electroencephalogram recordings. ApEn is a recently developed statistical quantity for …

Background Leishmaniasis is one of the most diverse and complex of all vector-borne diseases
worldwide. It is caused by parasites of the genus Leishmania, obligate intramacrophage …

… , we defined the pause propensity measure π as the difference between the relative synonymous
bicodon usage computed over the sequence sample associated with low PA, (RSBU L )…

… usage frequency as f s ( c ) = N c L s , where L s is total number of codons in the sequence
s… viral ORFome: f O ( c ) = N c L O , where L O is the total number of codons in the ORFome, …

… In this way, a target area A 0 and a target perimeter L 0 are introduced and the sums are
over all cells on the lattice, being A M and L M the area and perimeter of the cell M. The second …

… Because morphogens cannot diffuse beyond the boundaries x = 0 and x = L, we need to
impose a zero-flux boundary condition, which implies that k takes discrete values k n = nπ/L, …

We undertake the study of human EEG-signals by recourse to a wavelet based multiresolution
analysis as adapted to an Information-Measure-Scenario. Different information measures …
