The transgenerational consequences of environmental contaminant exposures of aquatic vertebrates have the potential for broad ecological impacts, yet are largely uninvestigated. Bisphenol A (BPA) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) are two ubiquitous estrogenic chemicals present in aquatic environments throughout the United States and many other countries. Aquatic organisms, including fish, are expo...

‘Epoch’ (Reg. no. CV-1195, PI 699379) hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and USDA-ARS released in February 2021 developing institutions. It selected from cross ‘Hitch’/NW03666. The pedigree of NW03666 is N94S097KS/NE93459. made 2009. F1 generation grown Yuma, AZ, 2010, F2 to F3 generations were advanced using ...

Previous studies of the neural representation of speech assumed some form of neural code, usually discharge rate or phase locking, for the representation. In the present study, responses to five synthesized CVC_CV (e.g., /dad_da/) utterances have been examined using information-theoretic distance measures [or Kullback-Leibler (KL) distance] that are independent of a priori assumptions about the...

We derive for deep-inelastic neutrino(ν)-proton(P) scattering in the combination νP− ν̄P the perturbative QCD corrections to three loops for the charged current structure functions F2, FL and F3. In leading twist approximation we calculate the first five odd-integer Mellin moments in the case of F2 and FL and the first five even-integer moments in the case of F3. As a new result we obtain the co...

We present a phenomenological model of the quark-hadron transition in neutrino-nucleon scattering. Using recently extracted weak nucleon transition form factors, we investigate the extent to which local and global quark-hadron duality is applicable in the neutrino F1, F2 and F3 structure functions, and contrast this with duality in electron scattering. Our findings suggest that duality works re...

We show that the difference equation xn = f3(xn−1) f2(xn−2) f1(xn−3), n ∈ N0, where fi ∈ C[(0,∞),(0,∞)], i ∈ {1,2,3}, is periodic with period 4 if and only if fi(x) = ci/x for some positive constants ci, i ∈ {1,2,3} or if fi(x) = ci/x when i = 2 and fi(x) = cix if i ∈ {1,3}, with c1c2c3 = 1. Also, we prove that the difference equation xn = f4(xn−1) f3(xn−2) f2(xn−3) f1(xn−4), n ∈ N0, where fi ∈...

This investigation focuses on the degree of speaker-specificity in F2 and F3 of eleven Australian English monophthongs, determined using F-ratios from single-factor ANOVA. Non-contemporaneous samples of spontaneous speech produced by eight male speakers (four twin pairs) of Australian English were analysed, with the results indicating that the front vowels, and close-front vowels in particular,...

An oleaginous fraction obtained from an alcohol extract of the fruit of Pterodon pubescens Benth. (FHPp) was microencapsulated in polymeric systems. These systems were developed using a complex coacervation method and consisted of alginate/medium-molecular-weight chitosan (F1-MC), alginate/ chitosan with greater than 75% deacetylation (F2-MC), and alginate/low-molecular-weight chitosan (F3-MC)....

FERM domains are found in a diverse superfamily of signaling and adaptor proteins at membrane interfaces. They typically consist of three separately folded domains (F1, F2, F3) in a compact cloverleaf structure. The crystal structure of the N-terminal head of the integrin-associated cytoskeletal protein talin reported here reveals a novel FERM domain with a linear domain arrangement, plus an ad...
