This work explores the hypothesis that proton irradiation is a feasible alternative to simulate accelerated thermal aging for Ni2Cr long-range ordered phase formation within NiCr and NiCrFe alloys. In this study, various model alloys and commercial alloys 690 and 690+P (0.01 wt.% P) were subject to 2 MeV proton irradiation...
BACKGROUND: Exocytosis is integral to root growth: trafficking components of systems that control growth (e.g., PIN
auxin transport proteins) to the plasma membrane, and secreting materials that expand the cell wall to the
apoplast. Spatiotemporal regulation of exocytosis in eukaryotes often involves the exocyst, an octameric complex
that tethers selected...

Repetitive sequences present a challenge for genome sequence assembly, and highly similar segmental duplications may
disappear from assembled genome sequences. Having found a surprising lack of observable phenotypic deviations and
non-Mendelian segregation in Arabidopsis thaliana mutants in SEC10, a gene encoding a core subunit of the exocyst
tethering complex, we...

Dissecting a Hidden Gene
Using genetic approaches, particle image velocimetry and an inert tracer of cytoplasmic streaming, we have made a mechanistic connection between the motor proteins (myosins XI), cargo transported by these motors (distinct endomembrane compartment defined by membrane-anchored MyoB receptors) and the process of cytoplasmic streaming in plant cells. It is shown...

The behavior and application of organic semiconductor materials depend strongly on their molecular structure, and molecular interactions. Several studies of intermolecular interactions in functionalized polyacene materials are presented. The degree and onset of aggregation of a functionalized anthradithiophene derivative was studied as a function of concentration in two different host...
Pacific sardines (Sardinops sagax) are an economically and ecologically important forage fish which transfer energy from planktonic primary producers and secondary consumers to upper trophic predators. Previous genetics studies of Pacific sardine suggested a panmictic population with a shallow genetic structure. However, more than one subpopulation within the Central California...
