With more energy imported by China, the business on construction and operation of multinational oil and gas pipelines is increasing rapidly.The unique Battery Pack political attributes of multinational oil and gas pipelines are likely to bring about complicated and prominent political risks to the pipelines, which may not only trigger hazardous ris
This 239 study was undertaken to create an Asiatic black bear (Ursus thibetanus; ABB) ethogram during hibernation and to describe the time budget of hibernating behaviours in ABB.Seven captive adult ABB were included in the study and began hibernation between October and December.Data were collected for three consecutive years (2013-2015) during AB
ABSTRACT Bacteriophage (phage) are both predators and evolutionary drivers for bacteria, notably contributing to the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes Hammocks by generalized transduction.Our current understanding of this complex relationship is limited.We used an interdisciplinary approach to quantify how these interacting dynamics ca
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease with short life expectancy and no effective therapy.We previously identified upregulated miR-124 in NSC-34-motor neurons (MNs) expressing human SOD1-G93A (mSOD1) and established its implication in mSOD1 MN degeneration and glial cell activation.When anti-miR-124-treated mSOD1 MN (pr
General patterns of forest dynamics and productivity in the Andes Mountains are poorly characterized.Here we present the first large-scale study of Andean forest dynamics using a set of 63 permanent forest plots assembled over the past two decades.In the North-Central Andes tree turnover (mortality and recruitment) and tree growth declined with inc
