Previous studies of long-lived or water/heat stress-adapted plants generally suggest that biotic and abiotic stress responses are positively selected for and play roles in the continuous arms race against the environment and pathogens50,51,52. Using GO enrichment to compare patterns of gene expressio...
A biology major studies living organisms’ functions and characteristics. You’ll take math, science, chemistry and biology courses.
2,3]. Affected individuals may display reduced ability to perceive, and engage in, every day social behaviors; they may display a preoccupation with seemingly trivial aspects of the environment (e.g., a fascination

(Figs.1,2A, Supplementary Data1: folder 1), which is arctic species, known to have efficient heat and moisture conservation capacities47. However, in Carnivora, the density of the maxilloturbinal within the nasal chamber does not seem associated with species living in arid or cold habitats48...
Combined with optogenetics, 33 this can provide a unique set of tools to controllably perturb the biomineralization environment within living systems and assess its impact on the structure of the mineral phase. Gaining control over the biomineralization process can foster the development of new ...
reticulations are crossed and genes are gained. This seems comparable to the accepted use of this term in a ToL model where the conceptual identity of an organism could change along an edge due to adaptation to a changing environment, or even more abruptly before and after a bifurcating ...
For microaerobic free-living conditions, 50 ml of bacterial cell cultures were collected and total RNA isolated using a RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany). RNA concentration was determined by measuring the absorbance at 260 nm. The integrity of RNA was determined by running samples on ...
Besides living in permanent darkness, deep-ocean organisms have to cope and adapt to the high pressure and low temperature that characterize this ecosystem. This fascinating habitat represents one of the largest biomes on Earth, mostly occupied by bacteria and archaea that play a pivotal role in ...
