EvIdEnt And non-EvIdEnt FunctIons
Targeting nuclear DNA-encoded tRNA is a quasi-ubiquitous process, found in a variety of species, although the mechanisms of this pathway seem to differ from one system to another. In all cases reported, this import concerns small non-coding RNAs and the vast majority of imported RNAs are transfer RNAs. If was commonly assumed that the main criterion to presume a tRNA to be imported is the absen...
متن کاملThe Shape of Incomplete Preferences
Incomplete preferences provide the epistemic foundation for models of imprecise subjective probabilities and utilities that are used in robust Bayesian analysis and in theories of bounded rationality. This paper presents a simple axiomatization of incomplete preferences and characterizes the shape of their representing sets of probabilities and utilities. Deletion of the completeness assumption...
متن کاملTransient preferences for repetitive visual stimuli in human infancy
Sudden events and sharp discontinuities in the external world act as powerful attention attractors in adult humans. Does this reflex-like orienting towards targets deviating from their surround occur in early infancy? Here, we present evidence that, during the first months of life, infants orient preferentially towards repetitive visual patterns, rather than towards uniquely deviating targets. ...
متن کاملOdor preferences shape discrimination learning in rats.
Forced-choice discrimination is a standard behavioral paradigm used to test animals' abilities in learning and memory. In this type of task, a reward association is made between a sensory stimulus and a food or water reward and the frequency of correct choice for the stimulus associated with the reward is measured. We show here that when olfactory sensory stimuli are used, spontaneous preferenc...
متن کاملAre Diet Preferences Associated to Skulls Shape Diversification in Xenodontine Snakes?
Snakes are a highly successful group of vertebrates, within great diversity in habitat, diet, and morphology. The unique adaptations for the snake skull for ingesting large prey in more primitive macrostomatan snakes have been well documented. However, subsequent diversification in snake cranial shape in relation to dietary specializations has rarely been studied (e.g. piscivory in natricine sn...
