Inhibitor of apoptosis (iap) genes have been identified in the genomes of two independent families of insect viruses, the Baculoviridae and the Entomopoxvirinae. In this report, we examined the functional attributes of the Amsacta moorei entomopoxvirus-encoded IAP protein (AMV-IAP). The binding specificity of the individual baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR) domains of AMV-IAP was investigated by usi...

Requirements for capped leader sequences for use during transcription initiation by tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) were tested using mutant alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) RNAs as specific cap donors in transgenic Nicotiana tabacum plants expressing the AMV replicase proteins. Using a series of AMV RNA3 mutants modified in either the 5'-non-translated region or in the subgenomic RNA4 leader, seque...

Abstract The connection between the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) and multidecadal variability (AMV) is inspected in a suite of pre‐industrial integrations from 6th phase Coupled Model Inter‐comparison Project (CMIP6), using change‐point detection method to identify different AMOC‐AMV co‐variability regimes. A key finding this study that models robustly simulate multi‐decad...

Replication-defective acute leukemia viruses E26 and myeloblastosis virus (AMV) cause distinct leukemias although they belong to the same subgroup of oncogenic avian tumor viruses based on shared transformation-specific (onc) RNA sequences. E26 causes predominantly erythroblastosis in chicken and in quail, whereas AMV induces a myeloid leukemia. However, upon cultivation in vitro for >1 month, ...

Abstract We consider weakly and strongly asymptotically mean value harmonic (amv-harmonic) functions on subriemannian RCD settings. demonstrate that, in non-collapsed RCD-spaces with vanishing metric measure boundary, Cheeger are amv-harmonic Carnot groups, weak amv-harmonicity equivalently characterizes harmonicity the sense of sub-Laplacian. In homogeneous groups step 2, we prove a Blaschke–P...

Abstract This paper attempts to enhance our understanding of the causes Atlantic multidecadal variability (AMV). Following literature, we define AMV as SST averaged over North basin, linearly detrended and low-pass filtered. There is an ongoing debate about drivers AMV, which include internal generated from ocean or atmosphere (or both) external radiative forcing. We test role these factors in ...

Abstract This study broadly characterizes and compares the key processes governing internal Atlantic multidecadal variability (AMV) in two resolutions of HadGEM3-GC3.1: N216ORCA025, corresponding to ∼60 km atmosphere 0.25° ocean, N96ORCA1 (∼135 1° ocean). Both models simulate AMV with a time scale 60–80 years, which is related low-frequency ocean circulation changes. In both models, heat transp...

alfalfa crops were surveyed for the incidence of alfalfa mosaic virus (amv), cucumber mosaic virus (cmv), peanut stunt virus (psv), bean leaf roll virus (blrv), bean yellow mosaic virus (bymv) and bean common mosaic virus (bcmv) in the major growing areas in the southeast and central regions of iran. samples were collected between may 2009 and march 2011 and analyzed for viral infection initial...

The largest sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies associated with Atlantic Multidecadal Variability (AMV) occur over the subpolar gyre, yet it is tropical from where global impacts of AMV originate. Processes that communicate SST change gyre to North thus comprise a crucial mechanism AMV. Here we use idealized model experiments show such communication accomplished by an “atmospheric bridge.” ...

In milk-fed calves, quantification of the milk that enters the rumen (ruminal milk volume, RMV) because of malfunction of the esophageal groove reflex may explain part of the variability observed between animals in their growth performance. The RMV can directly be quantified by adding an indigestible marker to the diet and measuring its recovery in the rumen at slaughter, but this technique can...
