Prescott et al. take a step forward in studying primate morphological evolution by a cellular anthropology approach. Through epigenomic profiling of in-vitro-derived cells, the authors identify and characterize candidate cis-regulatory elements underlying divergence in facial morphology between human and chimp, shedding new light on what makes us (look) human.

understanding the relationship between soil and plant is essential for reclamation of degraded lands. in order to investigate the relationship between atriplex halimus density with carbon sequestration the rangeland of incheborun was studied. soil samples were collected randomly by auger in the depth of 0-30 cm of the soil profile in three different plant densities (400 stand per hectare) with ...

A fast-growing theoretical literature on the political economy of reform has provided a sizable collection of models that have deepened our understanding concerning how distributional conflict manifests itself in the political process and can prevent efficiency-enhancing economic reform from taking place (see e.g., Allan Drazen [2000 Ch. 10, 13] for an insightful review). Unfortunately, systema...

In a semiarid region of central Iran, effects of parent materials, physiography and landscape position, land use, andmanagement practices on association of organic carbon with secondary (aggregates) particles and aggregate stability canhave important consequences in terms of carbon sequestration and budgeting, deciding on the proper land use strategy andsuitable soil conservation practices. It ...
