Rhizopogon subgenus Villosuli are the only
members of the genus known to form an ectomycorrhizal
relationship exclusively with Pseudotsuga. The
specificity of this host relationship is unusual in that
Rhizopogon is broadly associated with several tree
genera within the Pinaceae and relationships with a
host genus are typically distributed across...
Unintended pregnancy has been found to be one of the most prominent challenges that the public health system is forced to overcome due to the financial and social burdens that accompany it (Yazdkhasti et al., 2015). With nearly 48% of reproductive-age American female patients having experienced at least one unintended...
A radioactive particulate release experiment to produce a near-field ground deposition representative of small-scale venting from an underground nuclear test was conducted to gather data in support of treaty capability development activities. For this experiment, aCO₂‐driven “air cannon” was used to inject ¹⁴⁰La, a radioisotope of lanthanum with 1.7‐d half-life...
Under defined cultural conditions, zygotes of the brown alga
Fucus distichus L. Powell divide synchronously to form two-celled
embryos at approximately 24 hours after fertilization. These two
cells differ from one another in gross morphology, ultrastructure,
cytochemistry, and developmental fate. Cytochemical staining and
autoradiography indicated that a sulfated polysaccharide was...
Herein, a program of research is detailed related to transport through the Si metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) quantum dots fabricated in a process flow compatible with modern ULSI (ultra large scale integrated circuit). Silicon quantum dots were fabricated by placing split gates within a MOSFET structure. Quantum dots of several...
This research was aimed at providing the foundation for changing standards of care in a critical care setting using Catholic concepts of respect for human dignity, subsidiarity, common good, and solidarity as a matter of social justice. I first unpacked the nature of ICU care and the inevitability of the...
The fungi that cause mold and stain of freshly sawn lumber result in millions of dollars in losses to the forest products industry. Stain and mold are typically prevented by either kiln drying or by application of a topical fungicide. While these treatments are effective, kiln drying is costly and...
Genome-enabled mycology is a rapidly expanding field that is characterized by the pervasive use of genome-scale data and associated computational tools in all aspects of fungal biology. Genome-enabled mycology is integrative and often requires teams of researchers with diverse skills in organismal mycology, bioinformatics and molecular biology. This issue of...
