Siphonophores from surface waters of the Colombian Pacific Ocean
(Cambridge University Press, 2018)
Siphonophores are colonial hydrozoans that feed on zooplankton including fish larvae, and occur throughout the world’s oceans from surface waters to ocean depths. Here we describe the composition of hyponeustonic siphonophores ...
Modelling the rotation period distribution of M dwarfs in the Kepler field
(Springer Verlag, 2018)
McQuillan et al. (Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc.432:1203, 2013) presented 1570 periods P of M dwarf stars in the field of view of the Kepler telescope. It is expected that most of these reflect rotation periods, due to starspots. ...
Characterization of macropore structure of Malan loess in NW China based on 3D pipe models constructed by using computed tomography technology
(Elsevier, 2018)
Malan loess is a grayish yellow or brownish yellow, clastic, highly porous and brittle late Quaternary sediment formed by the accumulation of windblown dust. The present-day pore structure of Malan loess is crucial for ...
Codes from adjacency matrices of uniform subset graphs
(Springer, 2017)
Studies of the p-ary codes from the adjacency matrices of uniform subset graphs Γ(n,k,r)Γ(n,k,r) and their reflexive associates have shown that a particular family of codes defined on the subsets are intimately related ...
An integrated and comparative approach towards identification, characterization and functional annotation of candidate genes for drought tolerance in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench)
(BioMed Central, 2017)
BACKGROUND: Drought is the most disastrous abiotic stress that severely affects agricultural productivity worldwide.
Understanding the biological basis of drought-regulated traits, requires identification and an in-depth ...
Molecular detection of tick-borne pathogen diversities in ticks from livestock and reptiles along the shores and adjacent islands of lake Victoria and lake Baringo, Kenya
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
Tick-borne pathogens (TBPs) are responsible for some of the
most serious emerging infectious diseases facing sub-Saharan
Africa (SSA) and the rest of the world today (1, 2). In Kenya,
TBPs (including viral diseases—arboviruses) ...
What if students could be transformational resources for pharmacy practice?
(Medpharm Publications, 2017)
The pharmacists’ role in the healthcare
system is expanding internationally
beyond the traditional roles of
compounding and medicine supply
management, to providing patientcentred
care and updating health care
workers ...
A comparison of Einstein-Boltzmann solvers for testing General Relativity
(American Physical Society, 2018)
We compare Einstein-Boltzmann solvers that include modifications to General Relativity and find that, for a
wide range of models and parameters, they agree to a high level of precision. We look at three general purpose
codes ...
A model of HIV/AIDS population dynamics including ARV treatment and pre-exposure prophylaxis
(SpringerOpen, 2018)
Antiretroviral treatment (ART) and oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) have recently
been used efficiently in management of HIV infection. Pre-exposure prophylaxis
consists in the use of an antiretroviral medication to ...
Small molecule efflux pump inhibitors in Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a rational drug design perspective
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2018)
Drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) complicates management of tuberculosis. Efflux pumps contribute to low level resistance and acquisition of additional high level resistance mutations through ...
