To discover the relation between mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphism and the geographic population structure of Drosophila subobscura previously established for other genetic traits, a wide Paleartic survey was carried out. A total of 24 nucleomorphs was observed among 261 isofemale lines assayed by 11 restriction endonucleases with 38 different sites in the mtDNA cleavage map. The different...

Little seed canary grass (Phalaris minor L.) is a major weed in wheat fields in some parts of Iran. To evaluate the efficacy of molecular and greenhouse methods in detecting the resistance of 49 biotypes of canary grass(Phalaris. Spp) to acetyl-CoA carboxylase-inhibiting herbicides, two methods including whole plant screening and PCR-based molecular methods were applied. Results showed that the...

Canary song is hierarchically structured: Short stereotyped syllables are repeated to form phrases, which in turn are arranged to form songs. This structure occurs even in the songs of young isolates, which suggests that innate rules govern canary song development. However, juveniles that had never heard normal song imitated abnormal synthetic songs with great accuracy, even when the tutor song...

Performance variation due to PVT uncertainty has led to an increased interest in adaptive designs. Traditional methods for adaptive design have used so-called canary circuits that mimic the critical-path delay of the actual design [1-4]. However, canary circuits require safety margins for possible mis-tracking and intradie PVT variations. They also have difficulty responding to rapidly changing...

The Chrysodeixis chalcites single nucleopolyhedrovirus (ChchSNPV) infects and kills C. chalcites larvae, an important pest of banana crops in the Canary Islands. Five genotypes present in the most prevalent and widespread isolate in the Canary Islands were sequenced, providing genetic data relevant to the genotypic and phenotypic diversity of this virus.

A closed loop self-tuning 256kb 6T SRAM with 0.38V-1.2V extended operating range using combined read and write assists and canary-based VMIN tracking is presented. 337X and 4.3X power reductions are achieved using multiple assists and VMIN tracking, respectively; combining both saves 1444X in active power and 12.4X in leakage at the 0.38V. Keywords—self-tuning SRAM; combined assists; canary SRA...
