In the absence of a suitable reference genome, BAC-end shotgun sequencing or whole-genome sequencing can overcome the complex genome structure of an organism. The quantitative trait loci (QTL-seq)-sequencing approach can be used to identify any quantitative trait loci (QTL) from extreme ...
Although its "end-to- end" architecture has made this "connection-less" communications system readily "extensible," and highly encouraging to innovation both in hardware and software applications, there are strong pressures for engineering changes. Some of these are wanted to support novel transport ...

[53]. This single mutation stabilises the internal architecture of the molecule, generating a regulatory ‘spine’ that is absent in the inactive, wild-type kinase, thereby endowing theenzymewith constitutive activity sufficient to triggermalignant transformationofmammalian cells(structural comparisons of ...
s true identity as Sir William Thornhill and introduces him as deus ex machina at the end of the novel, the baronet is advanced as a counter-model to the vicar’s ethical identity: he will be shown to have mastered the...
This structure has stood the test of time for one simple reason: It works. It clearly presents the writer’s position, supports that position with relevant examples, and neatly ties their supporting arguments together in a way that makes their position evident. ...

In the first place, I want to emphasise the note of interrogation at the end of my title. Even if I could answer the question for myself, the answer would apply only to me and not to you. The only advice, indeed, that one person can give another about reading is to take no advice...
At the end of the back swing, the leading edge tip comes to rest against the body slightly below its point of departure; the fin is then rotated slightly upward while still pressed against the body, so that the tip starts the next stroke in its original position. The forward and ...
The Paris Agreement reflects a global consensus to limit the average temperature rise to well below 2°C, even to 1.5°C if possible; however, national contributions submitted to the UNFCCC Secretariat suggested that global temperatures will be 2.7–3.7°C warmer by the end of the century. The...
