HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE ESSAY Morphogenesis of Flowers—Our Evolving View

In this essay, the time course of our understanding of the structure and function of flowers will first be outlined from prehistoric times to the mid-twentieth century. Information is taken mostly from Sachs (1875), Arber (1950), and especially Morton (1981). More recent studies on the genetic basis of flower development will then be reviewed, focusing on floral organs rather than ovules, seeds...

Our evolving view of Wnt signaling in C. elegans

In this commentary, we discuss how our recent paper by Yang et al. contributes a new wrinkle to the already somewhat curious Wnt signaling pathway in C. elegans. We begin with a historical perspective on the Wnt pathway in the worm, followed by a summary of the key salient point from Yang et al., 2011, namely demonstration of mutually inhibitory binding of a β-catenin SYS-1 to the N-terminus an...

HERA reached a new QCD regime ? ( Summary of our view )

These notes are a summary of our efforts to answer the question in the title. Our answer is in the affirmative as: (i) HERA data indicate a large value of the gluon structure function; (ii) no contradictions with the asymptotic predictions of high density QCD have been observed; and (iii) the numerical estimates of our model give a natural description of the size of deviation from the routine D...
