Strongly female-biased sex ratios are typical for the fungal feeding haplodiploid Xyleborini (Scolytinae, Coleoptera), and are a result of inbreeding and local mate competition (LMC).These ambrosia beetles are hardly ever found outside of trees, and thus male frequency and behavior have not been addressed in any empirical studies to date.In fact, f
In this paper, we present a harmonic reaction inductive folded dipole antenna (FDA) for a highly efficient rectenna which is close to the fundamental limitation on efficiency.To remove lossy RF circuit components of the rectifier, the proposed antenna topology integrates circuit functionalities for highly efficient rectification, such as impedance
The transition from nucleate to film boiling on micro/nanotextured surfaces is of crucial importance in a number of practical applications, where it needs to Digital Multimeters be avoided to enable safe and efficient heat transfer.Previous studies have focused on the transition process at the macroscale, where heat transfer and bubble generation a
The slower response time to Tolerance Ring the cued than uncued target refers to inhibition of return.It has been always questioned which process is inhibited by the inhibition of return.This study sought to answer this question by using the psychology refractory period paradigm.A visual cue was presented at the cued or uncued location first, which
Drosophila SNF2-type ATPase CHD1 catalyzes the assembly and remodeling of nucleosomal arrays in vitro and is involved in H3.3 incorporation in viin vivo during early embryo development.Evidence for a role as transcriptional regulator comes from its colocalization with elongating RNA polymerase II as well as from studies of fly Hsp70 transcription.H
