T H E genome of Nicotiana otophora contains five large blocks of heterochromatm (HB's), whereas N . tabacum possesses no large HB's but only widely scattered, very small segments of heterochromatin (BURNS 1966). Since the chromosomes of N . otophora (n = 12) pair intimately at meiosis with those of one genome of N . tabacum (n = 24), transfer of HB's from the former species to the latter can be...

We discuss nucleosynthesis within intermediatemass stars by consideringa 6M model with Z = 0:02 as a typical example. The emphasis is on the AGB phase of evolution, with particular reference to nuclear burning in the bottom of the convective envelope. We nd strong CN cycling, with substantial Al production. Further we connrm previous calculations of lithium production, and show that this model ...

We study the prospects for probing CP structure of $hqq$ interactions using decays lightest baryon $\Lambda_q$ formed in quark's hadronization. The low yields reconstructible events make it unlikely tests to be performed with next generation colliders. In $h\to b\bar b\to \Lambda_b \bar\Lambda_b$ a CP-sensitive distribution could measured high-luminosity $e^+ e^-$ collider, while both and c\bar...

Here we report the first case of unstable hemoglobin Hakkari identified in Russia to our knowledge. It was diagnosed a two-year-old Russian boy with severe transfusion-dependent anemia caused by de novo mutation b-globin gene [b31(B13) Leu→Arg, HBB: c.95T>G]. Routine diagnostic methods were not effective, and his diagnosis established until sequencing globin performed. A comparative analysis...

We broadly generalise Mermin-type arguments on GHZ states, and we provide exact group-theoretic conditions for non-locality to be achieved. Our results are of interest in quantum foundations, where they yield a new hierarchy of quantum-realisable All-vsNothing arguments. They are also of interest to quantum protocols, where they find immediate application to a non-trivial extension of the hybri...
