The chlamydospore is a survival spore produced by 35 of the 75 described species of Phytophthora. Phytophthora ramorum Werres, de Cock & Man in't Veld, the causal agent of Sudden Oak Death (SOD), produces abundant chlamydospores in artificial culture and plant tissue. The chlamydospore is likely the most important survival...
Can a wellness movement and business be an American religion? By tracing three threads of historic American religions - New Thought, Christian Science, and Scientology - we can see how we've arrived at the place of even entertaining the question of GOOP as an American religion.
MOTIVATION: The automatic identification of over-represented motifs present in a collection of sequences continues to be a challenging problem in computational biology. Many existing approaches to motif identification do not always find the relevant biological motifs, or find only a subset of the occurrences of a motif. In this paper,...
Numerous studies have examined the evolution of sexual systems in angiosperms, but few explore the
interaction between these and the evolution of pollination mode. Wind pollination is often associated
with unisexual flowers, but which evolved first and played a causative role in the evolution of the other
is unclear. Thalictrum,...

Large carnivores face serious threats and are experiencing massive declines in their populations
and geographic ranges around the world. We highlight how these threats have affected the
conservation status and ecological functioning of the 31 largest mammalian carnivores on
Earth. Consistent with theory, empirical studies increasingly show that large carnivores...
