We examined temporal and geographical distribution of Haemoproteus sp. and Plasmodium sp. parasites in Swedish willow warblers, Phylloscopus trochilus. Parasite lineages were detected with molecular methods in 556 birds from 41 sites distributed at distances up to 1,500 km. Two mitochondrial lineages of Haemoproteus sp. were detected, WW1 in 56 birds and WW2 in 75 birds, that differed by 5.2% sequ
The report is a short survey of instrumentation and control in wastewater treatment plants in the USA. Primarily biological and chemical wastewater treatment is considered. The report is based partly on personal experiences from the USA, partly on literature studies.
The high-resolution infrared absorption spectrum for (HCN)(2) in the spectral region 3100-3300 cm(-1) is recorded in a static multipass cell at 240 K under equilibrium conditions. The spectrum shows extensive rovibrational structures which are due to the bound C-H stretching vibration band nu(2) of (HCN)(2) and several hot bands associated to nu(2). We manage to assign 63 new rovibrational transit
Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodet har en viktig funktion i kroppen. Blodet bildas i den röda benmärgen och består av olika typer av celler med olika specialiserade funktioner, varav många livsnödvändiga. De röda blodkropparna transporterar syre till alla våra kroppsdelar så att våra muskler fungerar och vi orkar gå och springa och så att vår hjärna kan arbeta. De vita blodkropparna hjälper oss atThe t(6;9) translocation is found in a subset of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and is associated with a poor prognosis. The translocation results in the formation of the DEK-NUP214 fusion protein containing almost the entire nuclear protein DEK and two thirds of the nucleoporin NUP214. The molecular mechanisms behind the leukemic conversion of cells expressing the fusion protein DEK-N
Transient-state kinetic experiments and analyses have been performed to examine the validity of hitherto unchallenged evidence proposed to be indicative of a channelled transfer of triose phosphates from aldolase to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. The results lend no support to such proposals, but show that the kinetic behaviour of the examined aldo
Several recent international publications (e.g. Platzack 1996, 2001; Håkansson, Pienemann & Sayehli 2002; Pienemann 1998; Pienemann & Håkansson 1999) have claimed that learners take the same developmental route in the acquisition of syntax of a second or foreign language, irrespective of their first language (L1). Targetlike verb placement in a Germanic V2 language like German, Dutch or Sw
The extent and consequences of global land-cover and land-use change are increasingly apparent. One consequence not so apparent is the altered structure of plants belowground. This paper examines such belowground changes, emphasizing the interaction of altered root distributions with other factors and their treatment in models. Shifts of woody and herbaceous vegetation with deforestation, afforest
Objective: To review and sum up the published literature on gynecological Doppler ultrasound examination. Methods: Publications on gynecological Doppler ultrasound examination already known by the author, publications found in the bibliographic database Medline, and publications found in the reference lists of available studies were read, and relevant information was extracted and summarized. Resu
The structures of the hydrated thallium(III) halide and pseudohalide complexes, [TlX(n)(OH2)(m)]((3-n)+), X = Cl, Br, CN, in aqueous solution have been studied by a combination of X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (XAFS), large-angle X-ray scattering (LAXS), and vibrational spectroscopic (Raman and IR) techniques including far-infrared studies of aqueous solutions and some solid phases
ere should be fitness costs associated with the defense, otherwise it should be permanent. Thus, in the absence of predators and with limited resources, defended individuals are expected to be outcompeted by individuals lacking the costly defense. Crucian carp, Carassius carassius, increase in body depth in response to chemical stimuli from piscivorous fish, and the deeper body constitutes a morph
Superporous agarose beads contain two sets of pores, diffusion pores and so-called superpores or flow pores, in which the chromatographic flow can transport substances to the interior of each individual bead [Gustavsson and Larsson, J. Chromatogr. A 734 (1996) 231]. The existence of pore flow may be proven indirectly by the chromatographic performance of beads but it has never been directly demons
Tailfat samples were collected from 56 platypuses, 38 male and 18 fernale in Tasmania. No statistically significant, nor apparent, differences between the sexes were found for tailfat lipid levels and DDT and its metabolites, Lindane and PCB concentrations in tailfat lipid. Apparently-but not statistically-significantly different levels of DDT and its metabolites, Lindane and PCB concentrations we
Results from quantum chemical INDO/S-CI calculations of the absorption properties of anatase TiO2 nanoparticles sensitized by catechol and benzoic acid are reported. Experimental observations that catechol causes a strong shift in the TiO2 absorption threshold, while benzoic acid does not, are explained from the calculations which indicate that only catechol introduces electronic levels in the TiO
Previously, weak emission lines had been detected at red wavelengths inthe spectra of a limited sample of mid to late B type main sequencestars. A fuller description of the occurrence and origins of these lineshas yet to be forwarded, in part due to the lack of observationsdetailing the spectral transitions involved. To address this deficiency,we present a line list of weak emission features found
The transition rates of the intercombination lines 2s2p(3 5)S(2)(0)-->2s(2)2p(2 3)P(1,2) are computed using a systematic configuration interaction method (SCIV3). The calculated lifetime of the upper S-5(2)o, level is in excellent agreement with a recent experiment. The branching ratio of the two lines is very different from earlier, less accurate theoretical values.
A general approach to exploratory analysis and modeling of network data is to investigate dyad distributions. We discuss clustering of dyad distributions when there are several variables defined on the vertices, and these variables interact with the arc values of the network. As an illustration we use data on achievement, race, sex and friendship for children in 48 different school classes. A clus
Proteins and peptides in bovine milk and colostrum were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). The proteins were separated in the first dimension by isoelectric focusing in the pH ranges 4-7 and 6-11, and in the second dimension by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis on 12.5% T homogeneous gels. The peptides were separated in the pH range 3-10 in the first
