Phylogeny of Darwin’s finches as revealed by mtDNA sequences
Darwin’s finches comprise a group of passerine birds first collected by Charles Darwin during his visit to the Galápagos Archipelago. The group, a textbook example of adaptive r...
The primordial helium abundance from updated emissivities
Observations of metal-poor extragalactic H II regions allow the determination of the primordial helium abundance, Y_p. The He I emissivities are the foundation of the model of t...
Molecular cloning of complex chromosomal translocation t(8;14;12)(q24.1;q32.3;q24.1) in a Burkitt lymphoma cell line defines a new gene (BCL7A) with homology to caldesmon
Chromosome 12q24.1 is a recurrent breakpoint in high-grade B-cell non- Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). To identify the genes involved at 12q24.1, molecular cloning of a three-way tran...
Nested Cladistic Analysis Indicates Population Fragmentation Shapes Genetic Diversity in a Freshwater Mussel
Abstract Recently developed phylogeographic analyses that incorporate genealogical relationships of alleles offer the exciting prospect of disentangling historical from contempo...
Effects of interpersonal trust and time pressure on managerial mediation strategy in a simulated organizational dispute.
Participants in a laboratory experiment (N = 79) role-played managers mediating a dispute between 2 peers. Building on previous research ( e.g., P.J. Carnevale & D. E. Conlon, 1...
Molecular signatures of Pleistocene sea‐level changes that affected connectivity among freshwater shrimp in Indo‐Australian waters
Abstract A major paradigm in evolutionary biology asserts that global climate change during the Pleistocene often led to rapid and extensive diversification in numerous taxa. Re...
Place-based and IT Mediated ‘Community”
Neighborhoods and whole cities are increasingly being designed with a broadband telecommunications infrastructure that provides access to the Internet and other information and ...
Ethnic differences in prevalence of asthma symptoms and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in New Zealand schoolchildren.
Maoris and Pacific Islanders in New Zealand have a higher asthma mortality and hospital admission rates than Europeans. To determine whether difference in asthma prevalence is t...
Comparison of <sup>14</sup>C and U-Th Ages in Corals from IODP #310 Cores Offshore Tahiti
Shallow-water tropical corals can be used to calibrate the radiocarbon timescale. In this paper, we present a new data set based on the comparison between 14 C ages and U-Th age...
Differential PcP Travel Times and the Radius of the Core
Backus-Gilbert inversions of a new differential PcP data set result in estimates of the core radius, 3484–3486 km, compatible with those obtained from the inversion of large set...
