dS values in gypsum are used to evaluate the fate of sulfur in the hypersaline Lake Lisan, the late Pleistocene precursor of the Dead Sea (70–14 ka BP), and applied as a paleo-limnological tracer. The Ca-chloride Lake Lisan evolved through meromictic periods characterized by precipitation of authigenic aragonite and holomictic episodes characterized by enhanced gypsum precipitation. The lake de...

The recent recognition of provisional Neurospora phylogenetic species (PS) 1-3 gave us the opportunity to compare genetic isolation, which underlies phylogenetic species recognition (PSR), with reproductive isolation as criteria for recognizing new species. This investigation involved first finding new individuals of PS 1-3 from a search of the Perkins culture collection, then assessing genetic...

Ganoderma boninense is a fungal pathogen that causes basal stem rot (BSR) disease in oil palm. Being serious problem to the palm industry, monitoring and detecting of utmost importance reduce spread facilitate effective management strategies. Because traditional culture-based assay time-consuming, labour-intensive required special skills mycology, plant pathologists are turning more accurate, s...

background and aims: the aim of this study was cloning and expression of rabies virus glycoprotein by a eukaryotic expression plasmid pcdna3.1(+) in bsr cell line. this construct might be used for a potential dna vaccine. materials and methods: glycoprotein gene was synthesized and cloned into pbluescript vector and then sub cloned into eukaryotic expression vector (pcdna3.1(+)). after verifica...

To delineate the spatial distribution of high saturation gas hydrate reservoirs in low-angle subduction areas Makran Accretionary Prism, we conducted seismic data interpretation and impedance inversion hydrates Prism comprehensively analyzed characteristics Nankai Trough Japan Shenhu Area South China Sea. The results show that features thick sediments, developed transport systems “two-way suppl...

The present study examined the relationship between children's behavioral self-regulation (BSR) skills and teacher-child (TCR). Furthermore, this investigated contribution of TCR, child's age, parent monthly income, child gender, year attendance in preschool education on BSR assessed by Revised Head-Toes-Knees-Shoulders (HTKS-R). Participants consist 388 children aged 42 to 77 months. Pearson p...

Recent years have seen a phenomenal growth in demand for residential broadband. With the advent of small form-factor high performance integrated SoCs (see, for example, the TI) and short area broadband wireless technologies (WiFi and the upcoming WiMAX/LTE), the broadband access point or Base Station Router (BSR) is becoming a mass-market item. Coupled with the ongoing interest in 'femto-cells'...

109 Rev Bras Reumatol 2011;51(2):109-112 In this volume, the article Brazilian Biologic Registry: BiobadaBrasil implementation process and preliminary, the authors described the implementation of the registry “Monitoring the Brazilian Registry of Biological Therapies in Rheumatic Diseases – BiobadaBrasil” promoted by the Brazilian Society of Rheumatology (BSR), and presented data from the first...

Species that display temperature-dependent sex determination are at risk as a result of increasing global temperatures. For marine turtles, high incubation temperatures can skew sex ratios towards females. There are concerns that temperature increases may result in highly female-biased offspring sex ratios, which would drive a future sex ratio skew. Studying the sex ratios of adults in the ocea...

Eight male subjects in each of three age groups (21-26, 40-45, 60-72 years) slept in pairs in the CAMI sonic boom simulation facility for 21 consecutive nights. The first five nights were used to acclimate the subjects (nights 1 and 2) and to obtain Baseline data (nights 3-5); the 12 subsequent nights (Boom) involved the hourly presentation of simulated sonic booms at an overpressure level of 1...
