The fossil record does not allow for the precise reconstruction of the cortical shape, but much information about the behaviour and ecology of ancestral species can be gathered from skeletal and artifactual remains53. Mapping cortical surface models of all species to a common reference frame enables ...
Based on this assessment, we critically evaluated the current strengths and gaps in our knowledge, and identify future research challenges in the field of root ecology. Most importantly, we found that belowground traits with the broadest importance in plant and ecosystem functioning are not those ...
To date, such a framework has been primarily used in the study of rare variants (Wu et al.2011; Pan and Shen2011; Zhang et al.2017) to identify rare deleterious loss-of-function alleles associated with disease phenotypes in humans (Zuk et al.2014) but it could also be used to find b...
Although the simple partition of enzymatic activities from a generalist/promiscuous ancestor seems to be the most common scenario, at least from the ASR studies conducted to date, evolution of an entirely new activity - from an ancestor devoid of such activity - appears to be neither difficult ...
by other means than population control through harvest have been limited to date. These include, for example, creating refuges and scaring geese into the refuges, which has not been adequately implemented in some countries with high conflict (e.g. Koffijberg et al.2017), although they ...

In short, each implementation seems to have its own advantages and disadvantages. A new function component API like SFC In order to solve the above problems, I decided to design a new API, which can retain all the features and ecology adaptability of function components, and is more suitable...
The mitochondrial genome of the Octocorallia has several characteristics atypical for metazoans, including a novel gene suggested to function in DNA repair. This mtMutS gene is favored for octocoral molecular systematics, due to its high information cont
In the proposed research, our prime objective is to suggest the consequence of the Allee effect in the reaction–diffusion equation and confirm how it affects interacting species in ecology. We investigate the impact of the multiplicative Allee effect in presence of self-diffusion for a small or ...
To date, most studies addressing facial signaling in cats focus on pain32,33,34. For example, the Feline Grimace Scale (FGS27) is a validated instrument for cat pain assessment. The FGS was further evaluated in Evangelista et al35,36., indicating the reliability of using images as compared...
