Conifers comprise an ancient and widespread plant lineage of enormous commercial and ecological value. However, compared to model woody angiosperms, such as Populus and Eucalyptus, our understanding of conifers remains quite limited at a genomic level. Large genome sizes (10,000–40,000 Mbp) and large amounts of repetitive DNA have limited efforts...

Crystallographic studies of ligands bound to biological macromolecules (proteins and nucleic acids) represent an important source of information concerning drug-target interactions, providing atomic level insights into the physical chemistry of complex formation between macromolecules and ligands. Of the more than 115,000 entries extant in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) archive,...

Science is difficult for even its researchers to understand. Science journalists must understand scientific discoveries well enough to write clear, accurate explanations of scientific discoveries for laypeople. A sense of ethical judgment will help journalists ensure that their accounts are reliable and appropriate. Responsible science journalists will maintain a working...

wrongdoing may not come via officially sanctioned channels. Deborah Blum, a professor of journalism at the
1. Foraging and migration often require different energetic and movement strategies. Though not readily apparent, constraints during one phase might influence the foraging strategies observed in another. For marine birds that fly and dive, body size constraints likely present a trade-off between foraging ability and migration as smaller bodies reduce...
Paleozoic dolomites, limestones, and detrital clastic rocks
were mapped in the Bellevue Peak 15 minute quadrangle in the
southern Mahogany Hills, Nevada. Sedimentary rock units in this
area represent shallow-shelf eastern assemblage deposits.
Shallow-shelf carbonates characterized deposition from at
least Ordovician through Late Devonian time, when clastics derived
from the...
