Environmentally Induced Heritable Changes in Flax
Some flax varieties respond to nutrient stress by modifying their genome and these modifications can be inherited through many generations. Also associated with these genomic changes are heritable phenotypic variations. The flax variety Stormont Cirrus (Pl) when grown under three different nutrient conditions can either remain inducible (under the control conditions), or become stably modified ...
متن کاملŒ Development/Plasticity/Repair Training-Induced Changes in Brain Morphology
Pleasant cool and unpleasant cold sensations are thought to be mediated by distinct groups of peripheral thermoreceptor neurons that start spiking at different temperatures. The cold-sensitive transient receptor potential channel TRPM8 is present in these neurons, but if and how this channel alone can produce disparate thermal thresholds is not clear. This week, Madrid et al. suggest that slowl...
متن کاملA Spatially Sensitive Kernel to Predict Cognitive Performance from Short-Term Changes in Neural Structure
This paper introduces a novel framework for performing machine learning on longitudinal neuroimaging datasets. These datasets are characterized by their size, particularly their width (millions of features per data input). Specifically, we address the problem of detecting subtle, short-term changes in neural structure that are indicative of cognitive change and correlate with risk factors for A...
متن کاملCan We Predict Cognitive Performance Decrements
Warfighters are often subjected to challenging sleep/wake schedules that hinder their cognitive performance. Countermeasures, such as timely short naps and caffeine, are often used to mitigate the effects of sleep loss on performance. However, the timing, duration, and dosage of these countermeasures should be optimal (or near optimal) to maintain high levels of performance at the desired times...
متن کاملEnvironmentally-induced changes in the Fatty acids of chlorella.
Qualitative and quantitative analyses were made of the major fatty acids of Chlorella fusca, Shihira and Krauss, in both autotrophic and heterotrophic culture. Cells grown heterotrophically were subjected to CO(2) concentrations as great as 40%-in-air.The major fatty acids of autotrophic cells grown under a 1% environmental concentration of CO(2), in order of concentration were 16:0, 18:3, 16:4...
