Coral bleaching events have been predicted to occur more frequently in the coming decades with global warming.The susceptibility of corals to bleaching during thermal stress episodes is dependent on many Folding Commodes factors and an understanding of these underlying drivers is crucial for conservation management.In 2013, a mild bleaching episode
In insect species that undergo long germ segmentation, such as Drosophila, all segments are specified simultaneously at the early blastoderm stage.As embryogenesis progresses, the expression boundaries of Hox genes are established by repression of gap genes, which is subsequently replaced by Polycomb group (PcG) silencing.At present, however, it is
Abstract Background Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs (miRNAs), long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs), accomplish remarkable variety of biological functions.However, the composition of ncRNAs and their interactions with coding RNAs in modulating and controlling of cellular process in plants is largely unknown.Using a divers
The type-specimen collection of the Herbario Nacional del Ecuador (QCNE) preserves important vouchers from across Ecuador collected by Ecuadorian and foreign researchers.Types are of paramount importance to understad biodiversity because their designation Gift Set is a requirement for the description of new species.We present a synopsis of the type
