The range of messages encoded in the hyena's laugh is likely to play a role during social interactions. This call, together with other vocalizations and other sensory channels, should ensure an array of communication signals that support the complex social system of the spotted hyena. Experimental...
Gene loss is a common threat to mobile elements, such as through excision (as in the case of transposable elements) or through segregation (in the case of conjugative plasmids). Segregation occurs when no plasmids are transferred to a daughter cell during cell division. Plasmids in particular ha...
As such, generally comes at a cost to HGT, there will be an addiction complexes should be seen as a form of life optimum in which gene transfer through some mix of insurance, in which in the event of the plasmid being lost both horizontal and vertical mechanisms is maximized through ...
Downhill running (DR) is a whole-body exercise model that is used to investigate the physiological consequences of eccentric muscle actions and/or exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD). In a sporting context, DR sections can be part of running disciplines (off-road and road running) and can ...
The identification and management of unmet supportive care needs is an essential component of health care for people with cancer. Information about the prevalence of unmet need can inform service planning/redesign. Materials and methods A systematic review of electronic databases was conducted to determi...
These compounds play an important role in transferring electrons to aqueous metal ions to fulfill the deficiency and reduced to their neutral form, which is commonly referred to as a nano form or nanoparticles (Figure 4). In some cases, the involvement of more than one or group of ...
