Study of Mitogenomes Provides Implications for the Phylogenetics and Evolution of the Infraorder Muscomorpha in Diptera by Huan Yuan, Wenbo Fu, Shulin He, Tingjing Li, Bin Chen

“…The Muscomorpha was proposed to originate in the early Jurassic, and the main clade diversified near the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, estimated using the MCMCtree and six fossil calibration points. The ancestral area of origin and geographic range of Muscomorpha was deduced to be the Palaearctic region with 56.9% probability using the RASP software based on a dated tree.…”

Cutting-edge technologies: Biofuel innovations in marine propulsion systems to lower black carbon emissions by Sivasubramanian Manikandan, Sundaram Vickram, Yuvarajan Devarajan

“…For example, a marine trial using 50:50 HVO-diesel demonstrated up to a 60 % reduction in BC emissions compared with fossil fuels but maintained engine performance. Qualitatively, enhanced combustion properties due to the relatively high cetane number and low aromatic content in biofuels compared with those of petroleum fuels result in lower soot emissions when burning biofuels. …”
