Rotavirus A (RVA) possesses a genome of 11 double-stranded (ds) RNA segments, and each segment encodes one protein, with the exception of segment 11. NSP4 is a non-structural multifunctional protein encoded by segment 10...

There are at least three different genealogical accounts of morality: the ontogenetic, the sociohistorical, and the evolutionary. One can thus construct, in principle, three distinct genealogical debunking arguments of m...

Through phylogenetic reconstruction this work analyzes the diversification of lanceolate points of the South Central Andes which began in the early Holocene and spanned the entire mid- Holocene. Based on a regional-scale...

Fighting fires is a very risky job, where loss of life is a real possibility. Proper training is essential. Several firemen academies offer courses and programs whose goal is to enhance the ability of fire and emergency ...

The seed cone Telemachus is known from several Triassic localities in Gondwana. New specimens from two localities in Antarctica provide additional information about the type species, Telemachus elongatus, based on detail...

The plasmasphere contains rich small-scale structure that plays a key role in regulating wave propagation and mass transport in the inner magnetosphere, yet the evolution of plasmaspheric density ducts remains poorly und...

Materias / palabras clave: evolution, anthropology, cultural evolution, palaeoanthropology, evolutionary medicine, phylogenetics; Geography. Anthropology. Recreation: Anthropology: Physical anthropology. Somatology: Human evolution; Science: Biolo...

Western corn rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera) (WCR) depends on the continuous availability of corn. Broad adoption of annual crop rotation between corn (Zea mays) and nonhost soybean (Glycine max) exploited WCR biology to...

Abstract Biological production of adipic acid, a crucial building block in nylon and polymer manufacturing, from renewable feedstocks has attracted attention as a sustainable alternative to the traditional petrochemical ...

Abstract The physical topology design (PTD) of optical networks is frequently accomplished by combining several solutions in an iterative way, especially if meta-heuristics are deployed for this purpose. Suitable operato...

In this paper, we chart an emerging academic terrain: cultural evolution of the arts, which is a theory-driven exploration of artistic dynamics, often done with large datasets of music, literature, movies, paintings, or ...

Today, when managers are faced with radical paradigm shifts, researchers are closely following the phenomenon of the digitalization of the decision-making process. Discussing various advantages and disadvantages, as ...

We study the evolution of dust in a cosmological volume using a hydrodynamical simulation in which the dust production is coupled with the MUPPI (MUlti Phase Particle Integrator) sub-resolution model of star formation an...

Introduction. Nowadays, the most widely used wind energy conversion system in wind farms is based on a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG); it has a large speed range and can function in multiple modes. Problem. Harmon...

ObjectiveCoals are highly sensitive to variations in temperature and pressure conditions. The structural evolution of coal macromolecules, driven by tectono-thermal processes, is the key to understanding coal rank transi...

We analysed the evolution of the metallicity of the gas with the redshift for a sample of AGNs in a very wide redshift range (0 < z

We show how a theory for electrocatalysis developed in our group can be combined with density-functional theory in order to obtain free-energy surfaces for electrochemical reactions. The combined theory is applied to the...

Abstract Background The residential building sector is a major contributor to Germany’s greenhouse gas emissions. Over 60 % of the energy used for space and domestic hot water heating comes from fossil fuels sources a...

Smart environments play a crucial role in achieving sustainable development goals, particularly those related to environmental protection and public health. In recent years, environmental degradation caused by air and wa...

Long-term monitoring of coastal aquaculture ponds (APs) is essential for sustainable food production and environmental management. Intensive aquaculture has reshaped coastal landscapes and threatened ecosystem services. ...

Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) surrounding supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are among the densest stellar environments in the Universe. In these environments, collisions can shape the stellar mass function and produce exot...

BackgroundRadical prostatectomy remains a key curative treatment for localized prostate cancer which has undergone continuous transformation. Recent developments in robot-assisted and single-port surgery have followed th...

Ultra-massive white dwarfs are powerful tools used to study various physical processes in the asymptotic giant branch (AGB), type Ia supernova explosions, and the theory of crystallization through white dwarf asteroseism...

Abstract Background Repetitive elements, particularly satellite DNA (satDNA), play a significant role in genome evolution and organisation. However, their diversity and evolutionary dynamics remain poorly understood in n...
