PREMISE OF THE STUDY The One Thousand Plant Transcriptomes Project (1KP, 1000+ assembled plant transcriptomes) provides an enormous resource for developing microsatellite loci across the plant tree of life. We developed loci from these transcriptomes and tested their utility. METHODS AND RESULTS Using software packages and custom scripts, we identified microsatellite loci in 1KP transcriptome...

UNLABELLED Included in Prokaryotic Growth Temperature database (PGTdb) are a total of 1334 temperature data from 1072 prokaryotic organisms, Bacteria and Archaea: PGTdb integrates microbial growth temperature data from literature survey with their nucleotide/protein sequence and protein structure data from related databases. A direct correlation is observed between the average growth temperatur...

We observed the brightest part of HESS J1825−137 with the Suzaku XIS, and found diffuse X-rays extending at least up to 15 (∼ 17 pc) from the pulsar PSR J1826−1334. The spectra have no emission line, and are fitted with an absorbed power-law model. The X-rays, therefore, are likely due to synchrotron emission from a pulsar wind nebula. The photon index near at the pulsar (r ≤ 1.5) is Γ= 1.7 whi...

This paper re-examines differences found between income gradients in American and English children's health, in results originally presented by [Case, A., Lubotsky, D., Paxson, C., 2002. Economic status and health in childhood: the origins of the gradient. American Economic Review 92, 1308-1334] for the US, and by [Currie, A., Shields, M.A., Wheatley Price, S., 2007. The child health/family inc...

Population-based association studies are powerful tools for the genetic mapping of complex diseases. However, this method is sensitive to potential confounding by population structure. While statistical methods that use genetic markers to detect and control for population structure have been the focus of current literature, the utility of self-defined race/ethnicity in controlling for populatio...
