Diversity, Distribution, and Evolution of Bioluminescent Fungi by Brian A. Perry, Dennis E. Desjardin, Cassius V. Stevani

“…Recent studies have elucidated the biochemical and genetic pathways of fungal bioluminescence and suggest the phenomenon originated a single time early in the evolution of the Agaricales. Multiple independent evolutionary losses explain the absence of luminescence in many species found within the five lineages and in the majority of Agaricales.…”

Title of Lithuanian Ruler Vytautas: When did Vytautas Start to Title Himself as the Grand Duke? by Loreta Skurvydaitė

“…As a consequence of the Krėva union, the title of the Lithuanian ruler was being formed in a framework of two poles: on one side it was the title of Jogaila as the king of Poland, and on the other side, it was the title of Vytautas - a local and later an independent ruler of Lithuania. When Jogaila became the king of Poland, the Lithuanian title of the Lithuanian ruler was combined with that of the Polish king. …”

Clustering Large-Scale Biomedical Data to Model Dynamic Accumulation Processes in Disease Progression and Anti-Microbial Resistance Evolution by Kazeem A. Dauda, Olav N. L. Aga, Iain G. Johnston

“…Clustering resolves issues of sparsity and high dimensionality in datasets, but complicates the intepretation of the inferred dynamics, especially if observations are not independent. Focussing on hypercubic hidden Markov models (HyperHMM), we introduce several approaches for interpreting, estimating, and bounding the results of the dynamics in these cases and discuss how biomedical insight could be gained from such analyses. …”
