Disappearing Scales in Carps: Re-Visiting Kirpichnikov's Model on the Genetics of Scale Pattern Formation by Laura Casas (471953)

“…We observed phenotypic changes which were not restricted to nudes, as described by Kirpichnikov, but were also present in mirrors (and presumably in linears as well; not analyzed in detail here). We propose that the gradation of phenotypes observed within the scattered group is caused by a gradually decreasing level of signaling (a dose-dependent effect) probably due to a concerted action of multiple pathways involved in scale formation.…”

The average time cost and accuracy of the assessed secondary structure prediction methods as the sequence homology of the target dataset reduces. by Sheng-Hung Juan (9046515)

“…The lowest sequence identity was 25% because when a lower identity such as 20% was applied, the number of sequences remaining in the target dataset would be far smaller than the 5 million safety zone (see <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0235153#pone.0235153.g002" target="_blank">Fig 2</a> and <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0235153#pone.0235153.s016" target="_blank">S6 Table</a>) and then cause unreasonable decreases of the accuracy. …”

Using text-mined trait data to test for cooperate-and-radiate co-evolution between ants and plants by Katrina M. Kaur (5011982)

“…However, the best-fitting model was a HiSSE model with a hidden state, meaning that diversification models that do not account for unmeasured traits are inappropriate to assess the relationship between mutualism and ant diversification. …”

Trade-off between Processivity and Hydrolytic Velocity of Cellobiohydrolases at the Surface of Crystalline Cellulose by Akihiko Nakamura (500644)

“…We found that high moving velocity of enzyme molecules on the surface is associated with a high dissociation rate constant from the substrate, which means weak interaction between enzyme and substrate. …”

Effects of nitrogen application rate, nitrogen synergist and biochar on nitrous oxide emissions from vegetable field in south China by Qiong Yi (3931826)

“…Excessive fertilizer N application resulted in N loss through nitrous oxide gas emitted from the vegetable fields. Compared with a conventional fertilization (N2) treatment, the cumulative N₂O emissions decreased significantly in the growing seasons of four plant species from an nitrogen synergist (a nitrification inhibitor, dicyandiamide and biochar treatments by 34.6% and 40.8%, respectively. …”

Moiré-Engineering-Induced Counteractive Control of Thermal and Electrical Transport in MoSe₂/WSe₂ Heterostructure by Haidong Wang (47381)

“…This demonstrates that the moiré superlattice provokes different rectifying responses for phonons and electrons. Decreasing the period of the moiré superlattice induces a pronounced enhancement of the asymmetry in the electronic density of states, while the thermal asymmetry is suppressed due to stronger interlayer coupling. …”
