Geochemical data from MESSENGER have revealed details of Mercury's surface composition, showing that it differs from the other rocky planets in the inner solar system. For example, the planet's ...

Photosynthetic organisms have evolved to modulate their metabolism to accommodate the highly dynamic light and nutrient conditions in nature. In this review we discuss ways in which the green alga ...

Rocky planets are thought to comprise compounds of Mg and O as these are among the most abundant elements, but knowledge of their stable phases may be incomplete. MgO is known to be remarkably stable ...

Context. Recent studies of massive stars using high-precision space photometry have revealed that they commonly exhibit stochastic low-frequency (SLF) variability. This has been interpreted as being ...

The root functions as the physical anchor of the plant and is the organ responsible for uptake of water and mineral nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfate and trace elements that plants ...

Molecular assembly indices, which measure the number of unique sequential steps theoretically required to construct a three-dimensional molecule from its constituent atomic bonds, have been proposed ...

As evidenced by isotope geochemistry, the persistence of primitive reservoirs indicates that the earth's lower mantle is likely to be heterogeneous. Such heterogeneity could be a legacy from ...

We spectroscopically investigated the energy gap of the correlated antiferromagnetic insulator LaMnPO1-xFx (x = 0.0 and 0.04) as a function of temperature and pressure, separately, in conjunction with ...

Chromosome segregation, transcriptional regulation, and repair of DNA double- strand breaks require the cohesin protein complex. Cohesin holds the replicated chromosomes ( sister chromatids) together ...

A 75 kW, 915 MHz microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition system was adapted and utilized to scale up production of high-quality single-crystal diamonds at high growth rates. A 300 mm ...
