The genus Anastrepha has over 235 species1 most of them endemic to the Neotropics. Only a few of these species, mostly in the fraterculus group, are agricultural pests, including the West Indies fruit fly Anastrepha obliqua (Diptera, Tephritidae). Because of the vast damage they inflict to...
We used this system to characterize how differences in external resistance affect cellular electron transfer rates on a per cell basis and overall biofilm development in Shewanella oneidensis strain MR-1. When a low external resistance (100 Ω) was used, estimates of current per cell reached a ...
In the M-vent, Calditrichaeota had the highest iRep value (1.8), followed by the FCB group (1.74), Chloroflexi (1.59), Nitrospirae (1.49), Alpha-/Deltaproteobacteria (1.48 and 1.42, respectively), and Gammaproteobacteria (1.4). iRep values for each MAG and the average iRep value of ...
They reported on the formation of MgO with traces of hydrogen at the metal/oxide interface and suggested 'it is likely as hydroxy groups trapped in the film'. Nord- lien et al.15 used TEM, for the first time, to study the surface film formed on magnesium exposed to air, water (...

Pseudomonas syringae is a widespread bacterial species complex that includes a number of significant plant pathogens. Amongst these, P. syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) initiated a worldwide pandemic in 2008 on cultivars of Actinidia chinensis var. chinensi
One of the main reasons for the excessive formation of trihalomethanes and trichloroethylene is the disinfection of incoming tap water by means of free chlorine in the presence of a residual amount of chlorine bonded into organic and inorganic chloramines. The mechanism of the excessive formation ...
In our modified approach, cfDNA is first ligated with sequencing adapters and 5hmC is selectively la- beled with a biotin group. After capturing cfDNA con- taining 5hmC using streptavidin beads, the final library is completed by PCR directly from the beads instead of eluting the captured DNA...
1. Introduction Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in elderly people worldwide [1,2], with an estimate that 288 million people will be affected by 2040 worldwide [3]. Accordingly, AMD is becoming an important healthcare problem in our aging world. ...
