The ascomycete fungus Tolypocladium inflatum, a pathogen of beetle larvae, is best known as the producer of the immunosuppressant drug cyclosporin. The draft genome of T. inflatum strain NRRL 8044 (ATCC 34921), the isolate from which cyclosporin was first isolated, is presented along with comparative analyses of the biosynthesis of...
Environmental crime around the world, such as trafficking in illegal timber, is directly related to political instability. Traffickers exploit weak, fragile, and chaotic political circumstances to illegally extract high-value commodities, challenging the extent to which conservation goals are achievable in resource rich developing countries. Rosewood is the largest traded endangered...
A 2-year trial was conducted at Oregon State University's Hermiston Agricultural Research and
Extension Center to examine the effects of spunbonded row cover and supplemental calcium fertilization
on blossom-end rot in two varieties of bell pepper. Blossom-end rot is a common cause of bell pepper yield
losses, especially at the...
Mixia osmundae (Basidiomycota, Pucciniomycotina) represents a monotypic class containing
an unusual fern pathogen with incompletely understood biology. We sequenced and analyzed
the genome of M. osmundae, focusing on genes that may provide some insight into its
mode of pathogenicity and reproductive biology.
Mixia osmundae has the smallest plant pathogenic basidiomycete...

An optimal interpolation (OI) sequential algorithm is implemented for a three-dimensional primitive equation model to assimilate current measurements from acoustic Doppler profilers moored on the Oregon shelf as a part of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) upwelling experiment (May–August 2001). A stationary estimate of the forecast error...
Methane hydrate found in marine sediments is thought to contain gigaton quantities of methane and is
considered an important potential fuel source and climate-forcing agent. Much of the methane in hydrates is
biogenic, so models that predict the presence and distribution of hydrates require accurate rates of in situ
methanogenesis....
Background—The current study described patterns of yoga practice and examined differences
in physical activity over time between individuals with or at risk for type 2 diabetes who
completed an 8-week yoga intervention compared with controls.
Methods—A longitudinal comparative design measured the effect of a yoga intervention on yoga
practice and...
