We introduce a sequence-dependent parametrization for a coarse-grained DNA model [T. E. Ouldridge, A. A. Louis, and J. P. K. Doye, J. Chem. Phys. 134, 085101 (2011)] originally designed to reproduce the properties of DNA molecules with average sequences. The new parametrization introduces sequence-dependent stacking and base-pairing interaction strengths chosen to reproduce the melting temperat...

Hollow-tine cultivation is a common management practice in cool-season turfgrass lawns. Research examining the effect of hollow-tine on annual crabgrass (Digitaria spp.) infestations absence preemergence herbicides limited. Multi-year experiments were conducted Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) and tall fescue [Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.) Darbysh.] monostands at Rutgers University Horticu...

TXS 0506+056, a source of the extreme energy neutrino event, IceCube-170922A, was observed on 22 September 2017. The Fermi-LAT detector reported high (HE) $\gamma$-ray flare between 100 MeV and GeV starting from 15 2017 this source. Several attempts to trace very (VHE) gamma-ray counterparts around IceCube-170922A resulted in no success. Only after 28 September, Major Atmospheric Gamma-ray Imag...

Patients: 15 056 patients (mean age 61 y, 82% men). 7595 patients 35 to 75 years of age with stable CAD and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol 3.4 to 6.5 mmol/L (130 to 250 mg/dL) lowered to < 3.4 mmol/L (130 mg/dL) after 8-week run-in of atorvastatin, 10 mg/d (TNT); and 7461 patients ≤ 80 years of age with myocardial infarction (MI) (IDEAL). Exclusion criteria were diabetes or fasting blood g...

The present study observes a military sample across race to better understand suicide risk among American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) individuals utilizing the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide. In a sample of 3,387 Army recruiters, multivariate analysis of variance was used to compare the means across race on acquired capability and pain tolerance. AI/AN individuals demonstrated higher levels o...

Palaeomagnetic data are presented from early Silurian (Upper Llandovery) lavas from the Tortworth Silurian inlier of south-west England. Two magnetization components are recognized on the basis of contrasting demagnetization characteristics. A lower unblocking-temperature component (<350 "C) is oriented parallel to the Earth's present magnetic field at the sampling site (N = 46, declination = 3...
