The World Summit on Sustainable Development (Johannesburg, 2002)
encouraged the application of the ecosystem approach by 2010.
We propose a framework that deals jointly with i) ecosystem dynamics,
ii) conflicting issues of production and preservation and
iii) robustness with respect to dynamics uncertainties.
More specifically, we define robust viability kernels...

Abstract
The World Summit on Sustainable Development
Understanding plant gene promoter architecture has long been a challenge due to the lack of relevant large-scale data sets and analysis methods. Here we present a publicly available, large-scale transcription start site (TSS) dataset in plants using a high-resolution method for analysis of 5’ ends of mRNA transcripts. Our dataset...

The intrusion-related Cerro Negro Norte Fe-oxide (Cu-Au) deposit is hosted in andesites and diorites of the early to middle Cretaceous Coastal Cordilleran arc of northern Chile. Tabular and irregularly shaped magnetite orebodies are localized on splays and fractures of the regional NINE striking Atacama Fault Zone. Production from this district...

Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) has a wide distribution in North America and is one of the
tree species most widely distributed outside its natural range. The species has been introduced to
Europe, New Zealand, South America, and elsewhere around the world. At present, Douglas-fir
is an accepted and integral part of...

A selective and label-free biosensor for detection of the explosive compound 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in aqueous solution was developed based on the principle of photoluminescence quenching of upon immunocomplex formation with antibody-functionalized diatom frustule biosilica. The diatom frustule is an intricately nanostructured, highly porous biogenic silica material derived from the shells...

Pathogens often have negative effects on wildlife populations, and disease management strategies are important for mitigating opportunities for pathogen transmission. Bovine tuberculosis (Mycobacterium bovis; BTB) is widespread among African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) populations in southern Africa, and strategies for managing this disease vary. In two high profile parks, Kruger National...

The Ti plasmid in Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain 15955 carries two alleles of traR that regulate conjugative transfer. The first
is a functional allele, called traR, that is transcriptionally induced by the opine octopine. The second, trlR, is a nonfunctional,
dominant-negative mutant located in an operon that is inducible by the...
