Structural and functional divergence of homoeologous genes in allopolyploid plant genomes by A. Y. Glagoleva, O. Y. Shoeva, E. K. Khlestkina

“…Changes of individual copies can be associated with epigenetic features of the gene organization (the methylation status of the promoter region or the presence of copy-specific small interfering RNA) or can affect structure of the coding or regulatory regions of the gene. Studies on artificial allopolyploid plants showed widespread transcriptional dominance and change of the transcription level as compared with the genes of diploid parental forms. …”

Time-Space Translation: A Developmental Principle by A. J. Durston, H. J. Jansen, S. A. Wacker

“…We present a model describing that the NOM acquires transiently stable hox codes and spatial collinearity, and that morphogenetic movements then continually bring new cells from the NOM within the range of SO signals that cause transfer of the mesodermal pattern to a stable pattern in neurectoderm and, thereby, create patterned axial structures. …”

Analysis of Strong Ground Motion Characteristics for the Jishishan MS6.2 Earthquake December 18, 2023 by Duan Xueliang, Liu Yanqiong, Zhou Zhenghua, Bian Zhu, Han Yi, He Jiacong, Peng Chen, Zhang Long

“…The ground motion intensity observed at the epicenter of this earthquake significantly exceeded the levels of rare and extremely rare seismic events in the current seismic design codes. The attenuation relationship of PGA obtained by regression analysis shows that ones in the 5th generation Chinese ground motion parameter zoning map for the Qinghai-Tibet region underestimate the horizontal PGA.…”

STADIUM: Species-Specific tRNA Adaptive Index Compendium by Jonghwan Yoon, Yeun-Jun Chung, Minho Lee

“…In addition to about 100 species in stAIcalc, we calculated stAI values for whole coding sequences in 148 species. To enable easy access to this index, we constructed a novel web database, named STADIUM (Species-specific tRNA adaptive index compendium). …”

Suboptimal but intact integration of Bayesian components during perceptual decision-making in autism by Laurina Fazioli, Bat-Sheva Hadad, Rachel N. Denison, Amit Yashar

“…This hypothesis has gained momentum in recent years, partly because it can be implemented both at the computational level, as in Bayesian perception, and at the level of canonical neural microcircuitry, as in predictive coding. However, empirical investigations have yielded conflicting results with evidence remaining limited. …”

Transposable Elements and Genome Size Variations in Plants by Sung-Il Lee, Nam-Soo Kim

“…Although the number of protein-coding genes is not highly variable between plant taxa, the DNA content in their genomes is highly variable, by as much as 2,056-fold from a 1C amount of 0.0648 pg to 132.5 pg. …”

The Dilution Dependency of Multigroup Uncertainties by M. R. Ball, C. McEwan, D. R. Novog, J. C. Luxat

“…The first assumed a correlation between continuous-energy and multigroup cross-sectional data and uncertainties, which is convenient for direct implementation in lattice physics codes. The second is based on a more rigorous approach involving the Monte Carlo sampling of resonance parameters in evaluated nuclear data using the TALYS software. …”

getphylo: rapid and automatic generation of multi-locus phylogenetic trees by T. J. Booth, S. Shaw, P. Cruz-Morales, T. Weber

“…Orthologues are identified heuristically by searching for singletons (single copy genes) across all input genomes and the phylogeny is inferred from a concatenated alignment of all coding sequences by maximum likelihood. We performed a thorough benchmarking of getphylo against two existing tools, autoMLST and GTDB-tk, to show that it can produce trees of comparable quality in a fraction of the time. …”

Comparative Study on Characteristics of Urban Road Network in Station Catchment Area between China and Other Countries for Station-City Integration by Yi-Zheng Dai, Chen-Yang Zhang

“…Except for that of the Honkong West Kowloon Station, the values for the Shapingba Station, Shanghai Hongqiao Station, and Hangzhou West Station are lower than this range. (3) Developing small-scale blocks by gridding has an optimal effect on station catchment areas within the side-length range of 47.1–97.5 m. (4) The current situation of the entire urban road network and the specifications for the design codes of the road network exhibit a certain correlation with the road network characteristics of the station catchment areas.…”

Postharvest Analysis of Lowland Transgenic Tomato Fruits Harboring hpRNAi-ACO1 Construct by Bita Behboodian, Zainon Mohd Ali, Ismanizan Ismail, Zamri Zainal

“…Initially, cDNA corresponding to ACO1 of lowland tomato cultivar (MT1), which has high identity with ACO1 of Solanum lycopersicum in GenBank, was cloned through RT-PCR. Using a partial coding region of ACO1, one hpRNAi transformation vector was constructed and expressed ectopically under the 35S promoter. …”
