Octodontoidea is the most species-rich cladeamong hystricomorph rodents. Based on a combined parsimonyanalysis of morphological and molecular data of extinctand extant species, we analyze the history of SouthAmerican oct...

An iterative refining method using FullProf software (Rietveld refinement) as a multi-input–output black-box with cyclic feedback is proposed in order to accurately measure the lattice misfit in two-phase coherent allo...

Intracellular levels of cyclic nucleotide second messengers are regulated predominantly by a large superfamily of phosphodiesterases (PDEs). Most of the different PDE variants play specific physiological functions; in fa...

Shallow lakes often alternate between two possible states: one clear with submerged macrophytes, and another one turbid, dominated by phytoplankton. A third type of shallow lakes, the inorganic turbid, result from high c...

Metabolism of Rhodococcus has evolved for adapting to a wide range of nutritional conditions. This adaptation often involves the flexibility of the central metabolism, which usually provides energy and precursors for bio...

During the last years, microorganisms (yeasts, fungi, microalgae and bacteria) have been receiving increasing attention as alternative lipid sources (also called single cells oils). Some lipid-accumulating bacteria, in p...
