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 “edge effect” phenomenon: deriving population abundance patterns from individual animal movement decisions
Download2016-01-01
Jonathan R. Potts, Thomas Hillen, Mark A. Lewis
Edge effects have been observed in a vast spectrum of animal populations. They occur where two conjoining habitats interact to create ecological phenomena that are not present in either habitat separately. On the individuallevel, an edge effect is a change in behavioral tendency on or near the...

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 biosphere as an increasing sink for atmospheric carbon: estimates from increased nitrogen deposition
Download1993
Estimates of carbon uptake and storage based on global nitrogen deposition, C:N ratios for typical terrestrial ecosystems, and recent ecosystem-scale nutrient studies indicate that 1.0- 2.3 Gt C yr-1 of carbon storage may be stimulated by anthropogenically caused increases in nitrogen deposition...

The construction and use of bacterial DNA microarrays based on an optimized two-stage PCR strategy
Download2003
Li, H., Klahn, J., Galbraith, D.W., Deyholos, M., Sherman, L.A., Impson, L., Postier, B.L., Risinger, G., Andrews, H.L., Burnap, R.L., Pesta, D., Wang, H.L., Singh, A.
Background: DNA microarrays are a powerful tool with important applications such as global gene expression profiling. Construction of bacterial DNA microarrays from genomic sequence data using a two-stage PCR amplification approach for the production of arrayed DNA is attractive because it...

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...
