Process Induced Defects in Resin Transfer Molded Composites
(2016)
Resin transfer molding (RTM) is an attractive, versatile and cost-effective alternative to autoclave processing for manufacturing geometrically complex, structural polymer matrix composites (PMC). However, process induced ...
Precipitation and carbon-water coupling jointly control the interannual variability of global land gross primary production
(2016-12-23)
Carbon uptake by terrestrial ecosystems is increasing along with the rising of atmospheric CO2 concentration. Embedded in this trend, recent studies suggested that the interannual variability (IAV) of global carbon fluxes ...
Opportunistic Sampling of Roadkill as an Entry Point to Accessing Natural Products Assembled by Bacteria Associated with Non-anthropoidal Mammalian Microbiomes
(2016-11-21)
Few secondary metabolites have been reported from mammalian microbiome bacteria despite the large numbers of diverse taxa that inhabit warm-blooded higher vertebrates. As a means to investigate natural products from these ...
XRN2 Links Transcription Termination to DNA Damage and Replication Stress
(PLos Genetics, 2016-07-20)
Author Summary Genomic instability is one of the primary causes of disease states, in particular cancer. One major cause of genomic instability is the formation of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), which are one of the most ...
Mapping annual forest cover in sub-humid and semi-arid Regions through analysis of Landsat and PALSAR imagery
(2016-11-10)
Accurately mapping the spatial distribution of forests in sub-humid to semi-arid regions over time is important for forest management but a challenging task. Relatively large uncertainties still exist in the spatial ...
Brain Transcriptional Profiles of Male Alternative Reproductive Tactics and Females in Bluegill Sunfish
(PLos One, 2016-12-01)
Bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) are one of the classic systems for studying male alternative reproductive tactics (ARTs) in teleost fishes. In this species, there are two distinct life histories: parental and ...
Targeted Curing of All Lysogenic Bacteriophage from Streptococcus pyogenes Using a Novel Counter-selection Technique
(PLos One, 2016-01-12)
Streptococcus pyogenes is a human commensal and a bacterial pathogen responsible for a wide variety of human diseases differing in symptoms, severity, and tissue tropism. The completed genome sequences of >37 strains of ...
