” Since each Tg measurement station has multiple measurement depths, data and flags are provided separately for each depth. The filename for each measurement station is set as “<ID><Latitude><Longitude>.txt,” where latitude and longitude values are rounded to three digits after the decimal ...
The majority of current advances in miRNA discovery came from the widespread use of next generation sequencing (henceforth named RNA-seq) which successfully uncovered a substantial number of miRNAs in various species28,29,30. The RNA-seq approach is particularly suitable for accessing ancient conserved...
if these clades were to be accepted as full species, the name-bearing lineage is Clade II. Thus, according to our newly presented evidence, and partly according to Russell84, the distribution range ofBungarusfasciatussensu stricto (Indo-Myanmar clade) comprises east and northeast India extending...
