The genus Torulomyces was characterised by species that typically have conidiophores consisting of solitary phialides that produce long chains of conidia connected by disjunctors. Based on the phylogenetic position of P. lagena (generic ex-neotype), the genus and its seven species were transferred to Penicillium and classified in sect. Torulomyces along with P. cryptum and P. lassenii. The aim ...

This article presents an overview of the design process of an interconnection network, using the technology proposed by Arteris. Section 2 summarizes the various features a NoC is required to implement to be integrated in modern SoCs. Section 3 describes the proposed top-down approach, based on the progressive refinement of the NoC description, from its functional specification (Sect. 4) to its...

From the spectra and light curves it is clear that SNIa events are thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs. However, details of the explosion are highly under debate. Here, we present detailed models which are consistent with respect to the explosion mechanism, the optical and infrared light curves (LC), and the spectral evolution. This leaves the description of the burning front and the struc...

What is the Problem of Universals? In this paper we take up the classic question and proceed as follows. In Sect. 1 we consider three problem solving settings and define the notion of problem solving accordingly. Basically I say that to solve problems is to eliminate undesirable, unspecified, or apparently incoherent scenarios. In Sect. 2 we apply the general observations from Sect. 1 to the Pr...

To determine the taxonomic identities and the systematic positions of some collections of Lindsaea sect. Synaphlebium (Lindsaeaceae) from Papua New Guinea, we conducted morphological comparisons and phylogenetic analyses on the whole section. A total of 22 morphological characters were selected and coded for each of all known taxa in L. sect. Synaphlebium, and were analyzed using maximum parsim...

As a result of a taxonomic and phylogenetic revision of Astragalus section Hymenostegis we identified a new species of Astragalus from northwestern Iran, namely A. remotispicatus spec. nov., which is described and illustrated here. It is morphologically similar to A. karl-heinzii in possessing a lax inflorescence. Phylogenetic inference of the nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (...

Due to a processing error the last paragraph of Sect. 3.1 on p. 358 was printed with an error. In addition, in Sect. 5.2 on pp. 365–366 the presentation of the Example was processed incorrectly. The second paragraph of Sect. 5.2 (two lines) must be removed and the last sentence in the same section must be replaced with ‘Nevertheless, even though σ0 maximizes in C1, it does not maximize in C2 (n...

A new species of the genus Augeriflechtmannia Koçak and Kemal, 2008 – formerly Diplonychus Auger Flechtmann, 2003, namely haloxyloni sp. nov. is described illustrated based on females males collected from Haloxylon ammodendron (Amaranthaceae) in Iran. key to known world also provided.

Abstract Five flavonol glycosides, including a new glutaryl-conjugated compound, were isolated from methanolic extract of the endemic Balkan species Astragalus thracicus Griseb. Based on NMR and MS spectra, one compound was identified as kaempferol 3-O-[?-glucopyranosyl-(1?4)-?-rhamnopyranosyl-(1?6)-(2-3-hydroxy-3-methylgutaroyl)-?-galactopyranoside)] (1). The other compounds, all known, maurit...
