TL;DR: The authors investigated the genomic basis of vectorial capacity and explore new avenues for vector control, sequenced the genomes of 16 anopheline mosquito species from diverse locations spanning ~100 million years of evolution Comparative analyses show faster rates of gene gain and loss, elevated gene shuffling on the X chromosome, and more intron losses, relative to Drosophila.
Abstract: Variation in vectorial capacity for human malaria among Anopheles mosquito species is determined by many factors, including behavior, immunity, and life history To investigate the genomic basis of vectorial capacity and explore new avenues for vector control, we sequenced the genomes of 16 anopheline mosquito species from diverse locations spanning ~100 million years of evolution Comparative analyses show faster rates of gene gain and loss, elevated gene shuffling on the X chromosome, and more intron losses, relative to Drosophila Some determinants of vectorial capacity, such as chemosensory genes, do not show elevated turnover but instead diversify through protein-sequence changes This dynamism of anopheline genes and genomes may contribute to their flexible capacity to take advantage of new ecological niches, including adapting to humans as primary hosts

TL;DR: The proposed methodology may allow the upgrading of an existing evaluation to incorporate the genomic information when the information attributable to genomics can be expressed as modifications to the numerator relationship matrix.

TL;DR: It is reported that the intestinal microbe Bacteroides fragilis modifies the homeostasis of host invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells by supplementing the host's endogenous lipid antigen milieu with unique inhibitory sphingolipids, and suggests that the distinctive inhibitory capacity of GSL-Bf717 and similar molecules may prove useful in the treatment of autoimmune and allergic disorders in which iNKT cell activation is destructive.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the radiative lifetime of nanocrystals surrounded with air as well as those immersed in different liquids and provided a unique test of the standard formula relating to the radii and the oscillator strength.
Abstract: The radiative lifetime, ${\ensuremath{\tau}}_{R},$ of the ${}^{5}{D}_{0}$ metastable excited state of ${\mathrm{Eu}}^{3+}$ ions in nanocrystalline monoclinic ${\mathrm{Y}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ samples is about four times longer than that in the micron size powder of the same material. The ${\mathrm{Eu}}^{3+}$ radiative lifetime was measured in nanocrystals surrounded with air as well as those immersed in different liquids. It is shown that the radiative lifetime changes with the index of refraction of the immersion medium and provides a unique test of the standard formula relating ${\ensuremath{\tau}}_{R}$ and the oscillator strength. The magnitude of the effect is determined by the ``filling factor'' (the fraction of the sample volume occupied by nanocrystals) which can therefore be determined.

30 Apr 2007TL;DR: This paper presents Bernstein-Bezier methods for bivariate polynomials and their applications to spline spaces, and some of the methods applied to macro-element spaces also apply to bivariate box splines.
Abstract: Spline functions are universally recognized as highly effective tools in approximation theory, computer-aided geometric design, image analysis, and numerical analysis. The theory of univariate splines is well known but this text is the first comprehensive treatment of the analogous bivariate theory. A detailed mathematical treatment of polynomial splines on triangulations is outlined, providing a basis for developing practical methods for using splines in numerous application areas. The detailed treatment of the Bernstein-Bezier representation of polynomials will provide a valuable source for researchers and students in CAGD. Chapters on smooth macro-element spaces will allow engineers and scientists using the FEM method to solve partial differential equations numerically with new tools. Workers in the geosciences will find new tools for approximation and data fitting on the sphere. Ideal as a graduate text in approximation theory, and as a source book for courses in computer-aided geometric design or in finite-element methods.
