Effects of Near Ultraviolet and Green Radiations on Plant Growth.
Test Systems. Tagetes erecta L., Dwarf Pigmy French Marigold (Burpee 4166) was planted in soil in polyethvlene boxes; radiation treatments were started immediately. Impatiens Balsamina L.. Holsti Hybrid (Burpee 4107) and Lycopersicon esculenturit Mill., Rutgers (Burpee 5061) were similarly grown; radiation treatments were started when the seedlings were 1 cm tall. One week after planting, the s...
متن کاملHow Many People Speak Esperanto? Or: Esperanto on the Web
We suggest an updated estimate of the number of Esperanto speakers worldwide, based on the number of people in Facebook who indicate that they speak the language. A simple calculation accompanied by reasonable refinements leads to a number of approximately two million Esperanto users within the internet community alone, probably significantly more worldwide.
متن کاملA bizarre Cretaceous theropod dinosaur from Patagonia and the evolution of Gondwanan dromaeosaurids.
Fossils of a predatory dinosaur provide novel information about the evolution of unenlagiines, a poorly known group of dromaeosaurid theropods from Gondwana. The new dinosaur is the largest dromaeosaurid yet discovered in the Southern Hemisphere and depicts bizarre cranial and postcranial features. Its long and low snout bears numerous, small-sized conical teeth, a condition resembling spinosau...
متن کاملExplosive evolutionary radiations: decreasing speciation or increasing extinction through time?
A common pattern in time-calibrated molecular phylogenies is a signal of rapid diversification early in the history of a radiation. Because the net rate of diversification is the difference between speciation and extinction rates, such "explosive-early" diversification could result either from temporally declining speciation rates or from increasing extinction rates through time. Distinguishing...
متن کاملGEIGER: investigating evolutionary radiations
SUMMARY GEIGER is a new software package, written in the R language, to describe evolutionary radiations. GEIGER can carry out simulations, parameter estimation and statistical hypothesis testing. Additionally, GEIGER's simulation algorithms can be used to analyze the statistical power of comparative approaches. AVAILABILITY This open source software is written entirely in the R language and ...
