Neurospora crassa has been for decades a principal model for filamentous
fungal genetics and physiology as well as for understanding
the mechanism of circadian clocks. Eukaryotic fungal and animal
clocks comprise transcription-translation-based feedback loops that
control rhythmic transcription of a substantial fraction of these transcriptomes,
yielding the changes in protein...

OBJECTIVE: The associations of some risk factors with cardiovascular disease (CVD) are attenuated in
older age; whereas others appear robust. The present study aimed to compare CVD risk factors across
older age. METHODS: Participants (n = 4883) in the Cardiovascular Health Study free of prevalent CVD,
were stratified into three...

Accessions of common wheat (Triticum aestivum
L. subsp. aestivum) from the USDA–ARS
National Small Grains Collection (NSGC) are a
resource for wheat scientists worldwide. The
genetic diversity of the wheat core subset, representing
approximately 10% of the collection’s
42,138 T. aestivum accessions, was examined
using 390 diversity arrays technology (DArT)...

Non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) in plant tissue are frequently quantified to make inferences about plant responses to environmental conditions. Laboratories publishing estimates of NSC of woody plants use many different methods to evaluate NSC. We asked whether NSC estimates in the recent literature could be quantitatively compared among studies. We also...

The filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa responds to light in complex ways. To thoroughly
study the transcriptional response of this organism to light, RNA-seq was used to analyze capped and
polyadenylated mRNA prepared from mycelium grown for 24 hr in the dark and then exposed to light for
0 (control) 15,...

Fungal hyphae are among the most highly polarized cells. Hyphal polarized
growth is supported by tip-directed transport of secretory vesicles, which accumulate temporarily
in a stratified manner in an apical vesicle cluster, the Spitzenkörper. The exocyst complex
is required for tethering of secretory vesicles to the apical plasma membrane. We...

We present high-resolution measurements of carbon
monoxide (CO) concentrations from a shallow ice core
of the North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling project (NEEM-
2011-S1). An optical-feedback cavity-enhanced absorption
spectrometer (OF-CEAS) coupled to a continuous melter
system performed continuous, online analysis during a fourweek
measurement campaign. This analytical setup generated
stable...
