Schlägel, Ulrike E., Merrill, Evelyn H., Lewis, Mark A.
Identifying behavioral mechanisms that underlie observed movement patterns is difficult when animals employ sophisticated cognitive‐based strategies. Such strategies may arise when timing of return visits is important, for instance to allow for resource renewal or territorial patrolling. We...

The APETALA-2-Like Transcription Factor OsAP2-39 Controls Key Interactions between Abscisic Acid and Gibberellin in Rice
Download2010
Rothstein, Steven J., Bi, Yong-Mei, Zhu, Tong, El-kereamy, Ashraf, Beatty, Perrin H., Yaish, Mahmoud W., Good, Allen G.
The interaction between phytohormones is an important mechanism which controls growth and developmental processes in plants. Deciphering these interactions is a crucial step in helping to develop crops with enhanced yield and resistance to environmental stresses. Controlling the expression level...

The Aquatic Angiosperm Trapago angulata from the Upper Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) St. Mary River Formation of Southern Alberta.
Download1997
A floating aquatic dicot with leaves assignable to Trapago angulata has been characterized from Upper Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) deposits of the St. Mary River Formation in southern Alberta, Canada. Reconstruction of the plant is based on nearly 500 specimens of various isolated and attached...

As the most ancient extant metazoans, glass sponges (Hexactinellida) have attracted recent attention in the areas of molecular evolution and the evolution of conduction systems but they are also interesting because of their unique histology: the greater part of their soft tissue consists of a...

The CyberCell Database (CCDB): A comprehensive, self-updating relational database to coordinate and facilitate in silico modeling of Escherichia coli
Download2004
Stothard, P., Rouani, M., Sundararaj, S., Wishart, D.S., Nazhad, B.H., Guo, A., Ellison, M.
The CyberCell Database (CCDB: http://redpoll. pharmacy.ualberta.ca/CCDB) is a comprehensive, web-accessible database designed to support and coordinate international efforts in modeling an Escherichia coli cell on a computer. The CCDB brings together both observed and derived quantitative data...

Bunya pine (Araucaria bidwillii Hooker) produces large seeds that consist of a massive megagametophyte that surrounds an embryo 25-30 mm long and 3-5 mm in diameter. The seeds germinate on the soil surface, but elongation of the cotyledonary tube pushes the hypocotyl, with its associated plumule...

Individuals in streams are constantly subject to predominantly unidirectional flow. The question of how these populations can persist in upper stream reaches is known as the “drift paradox.” We employ a general mechanistic movement-model framework and derive dispersal kernels for this situation....

Stevenson,DW, Graham, SW, Aimé, S, Lehotai, N, Yan, Z, Edger, PP, Pires, JC, Wendehenne, D, Leebens-Mack,JH, Xie, Y, Soltis, DE, Chase,MW , Jeandroz, S, Grandperret, V, Bourque, S , Rothfels, CJ, Wong, GKS, Melkonian,M , Wu, S, Deyholos,MK , Miles, NW , Wang, X , Carpenter, EJ, Nicolas-Francès, V
In eukaryotes, protein deacetylation is carried out by two well-conserved histone deacetylase (HDAC) families: RPD3/HDA1 and SIR2. Intriguingly, model plants such as Arabidopsis express an additional plant-specific HDAC family, termed type-2 HDACs (HD2s). Transcriptomic analyses from more than...

Lepage, B. A., Currah, R. S., Stockey, R. A.
The middle Eocene Princeton chert locality in southern British Columbia, Canada, contains one of the best-preserved permineralized Tertiary floral assemblages known in North America. The quality of pres- ervation of the vascular plant and fungal remains is exquisite because anatomical and...
