Eukaryotic telomeres are transcribed into telomeric repeat-containing RNA (TERRA). Telomeric transcription has been documented in mammals, birds, zebra fish, plants and budding yeast. Here we show that the chromosome ends of Schizosaccharomyces pombe produce distinct RNA species. As with budding yeast and mammals, S. pombe contains G-rich TERRA molecules and subtelomeric RNA species transcribed...

Software that is used to control machines and robots must be predictable and reliable. Model-Driven Design (MDD) techniques are used to comply with both the technical and business needs. This paper introduces a CSP meta-model that is suitable for these MDD techniques. The meta-model describes the structure of CSP models that are designed; using this meta-model it is possible to use all regular ...

Absorbent recycled paper products were tested and compared with a sodium polyacrylate gelling agent, Aquatain, for solidifying larval diets of the screwworm, Cochliomyia hominivorax (Coquerel). A recycled newsprint product, Terra-Mulch, when mixed with water and dietary ingredients produced a diet medium of homogeneous texture that supported larval growth and development comparable to the stand...

Biodiversidade pode ser definida como o conjunto de todos os seres vivos em um ecossistema, em uma região ou em toda a Terra. O valor intrínseco das espécies e dos ecossistemas vai além de seu valor como matéria-prima para o desenvolvimento dos produtos. A biodiversidade possui valor econômico, social, recreativo, cultural e estético. A biodiversidade hoje existente é o resultado da evolução du...

Crater degradation on Mars is a key to understand erosion through time. Strongly eroded craters in the highlands are interpreted to be the result of enhanced erosion rate during the Noachian epoch [1]. While fluvial valleys climatic meaning and duration are still difficult to define (strongly warmer climate or episodic activity under slightly warmer climate), the enhanced Noachian craters degra...

We have examined the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Collection 5.1 Level 2 Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) from Deep Blue algorithm and Dark Target approach over Ahmedabad, India for 2002 to 2005. Deep Blue algorithm is observed to be able to retrieve AOD over the Rann of Kuchchh, a region of high surface reflectance which poses difficulty for the Dark Target approach. Microt...

This study investigated the performances of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and GEOLAND2 Version 1 (GEOV1) Leaf Area Index (LAI) products using ground measurements and LAI reference maps over four sites in North China for 2011-2013. The Terra + Aqua MODIS and Terra MODIS LAI retrieved by the main algorithm and GEOV1 LAI within the valid range were evaluated and interco...

This paper presents new APEX submillimetre molecular line observations of three low-mass protostars, IRS7A, IRS7B, and IRAS32, in the R Coronae Australis molecular cloud complex. The molecular excitation analysis is performed using a statistical equilibrium radiative transfer code. The derived beam averaged fractional abundances vary by less than a factor of two among the three sources, except ...

Submillimetre HCO+(J = 4− 3) mapping observations of the immediate environs of the infrared source IRS 7 in Corona Australis have provided corroborative evidence for the existence of the rotating molecular disk detailed in our earlier paper. An improved estimate of 0.8M for the mass of the central protostar is obtained.
