Intraclade heterogeneity in nitrogen utilization by marine prokaryotes revealed using stable isotope probing coupled with tag sequencing (Tag-SIP)

Nitrogen can greatly influence the structure and productivity of microbial communities through its relative availability and form.However, roles of specific organisms in the uptake of different nitrogen species remain poorly characterized.Most studies seeking to identify agents of assimilation have been correlative, indirectly linking activity meas

Use of plumage and gular pouch color to evaluate condition of oil spill rehabilitated California brown pelicans (Pelecanus occidentalis californicus) post-release.

Sublethal effects of oil spills may dampen seabird rehabilitation success due to lingering negative impacts 49ers gold hex code of contamination and stress on reproduction and long-term survival.These effects can be difficult to measure while birds are in care as well as once birds are released.Expression of sexually selected traits that are sensit

Single-base resolution maps of cultivated and wild rice methylomes and regulatory roles of DNA methylation in plant gene expression

Abstract Background DNA methylation plays important biological roles in plants and animals.To examine the rice genomic methylation landscape and assess its functional significance, we generated single-base resolution DNA methylome maps for Asian cultivated rice Oryza sativa ssp.japonica, indica and their wild relatives, Oryza rufipogon and Oryza ni
