Light provides crucial positional information in plant development, and the morphogenetic processes that are orchestrated by light signals are triggered by changes of gene expression in response to variations in light parameters. Control of expression of members of the RbcS and Lhc families of...

In April and May 2003 through 2006, unusually rough and rafted sea ice extended for several tens of kilometres offshore in the southeastern Beaufort Sea from about Atkinson Point to the Alaska border. Hunting success of polar bears (Ursus maritimus) seeking seals was low despite extensive...

Habitat selection is a multi-level, hierarchical process that should be a key component in the balance between food acquisition and predation risk avoidance (food–predation trade-off). However, to date, studies have not fully elucidated how fine- and broad-scale habitat decisions by individual...

Stockey, R.A., Nishida, M., Nishida, H.

Six ovulate, permineralized cones, four cone-scale complexes, and one isolated seed are described from the Upper Cretaceous Upper Yezo and Miho Groups from Hokkaido, Japan, and Saghalien, Russia. Cones are spherical, 3.5-6.0 cm in diameter, with prominent thick bracts. Thick ovuliferous scales...

To address the composition of the urticalean rosids, the relationships of the component families (maximally Cannabaceae, Cecropiaceae, Celtidaceae, Moraceae, Ulmaceae, and Urticaceae) and analyze evolution of morphological characters, we analyzed sequence variation for a large sampling of these...

Replicate samples of Phragmites communis roots coated with hydrous iron oxide were analyzed for internal and external Fe using the dithionite-citrate-bicarbonate technique (hot DCB), a modified DCB technique (cold DCB), Ethylenediaminete traacetic acid (EDTA), Diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid...

Sequences from 14 slowly evolving chloroplast genes (including three highly conserved introns) were obtained for representative basal angiosperm and seed-plant taxa, using novel primers described here. These data were combined with published sequences from atpB, rbcL, and newly obtained sequences...

Abstract: We quantified variation in performance under greenhouse conditions among seven populations of Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker) from Luzon Island, Philippines, on three rice varieties: 'IR58' transformed with the cry1Ab gene from Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner, and nontransgenic IR58 and...
