TL;DR: In this article, the fine structure of excitons is studied by magnetophotoluminescence spectroscopy of single self-assembled In(Ga)As/(Al)GaAs quantum dots.
Abstract: The fine structure of excitons is studied by magnetophotoluminescence spectroscopy of single self-assembled In(Ga)As/(Al)GaAs quantum dots. Both strength and orientation of the magnetic field are varied. In a combination with a detailed theoretical analysis, these studies allow us to develop a comprehensive picture of the exciton fine structure. Symmetry of the dot structures as well as its breaking cause characteristic features in the optical spectra, which are determined by the electron-hole exchange and the Zeeman interaction of the carriers. The symmetry breaking is either inherent to the dot due to geometry asymmetries, or it can be obtained by applying a magnetic field with an orientation different from the dot symmetry axis. From data on spin splitting and on polarization of the emission we can identify neutral as well as charged exciton complexes. For dots with weakly broken symmetry, the angular momentum of the neutral exciton is no longer a good quantum number and the exchange interaction lifts degeneracies within the fine-structure manifold. The symmetry can be restored by a magnetic field due to the comparatively strong Zeeman interactions of electron and hole. For dots with a strongly broken symmetry, bright and dark excitons undergo a strong hybridization, as evidenced by pronounced anticrossings when states within the manifold are brought into resonance. The fine structure can no longer be described within the frame developed for structures of higher dimensionality. In particular, the hybridization cannot be broken magnetically. For charged excitons, the exchange interaction vanishes, demonstrating that the exchange splitting of a neutral exciton can be switched off by injecting an additional carrier.

TL;DR: This study shows that SA, JA, and ET play a primary role in the orchestration of the plant's defense response, but other regulatory mechanisms, such as pathway cross-talk or additional attacker-induced signals, eventually shape the highly complex attacker-specific defense response.
Abstract: Plant defenses against pathogens and insects are regulated differentially by cross-communicating signaling pathways in which salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA), and ethylene (ET) play key roles. To understand how plants integrate pathogen- and insect-induced signals into specific defense responses, we monitored the dynamics of SA, JA, and ET signaling in Arabidopsis after attack by a set of microbial pathogens and herbivorous insects with different modes of attack. Arabidopsis plants were exposed to a pathogenic leaf bacterium (Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato), a pathogenic leaf fungus (Alternaria brassicicola), tissuechewing caterpillars (Pieris rapae), cell-content-feeding thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis), or phloem-feeding aphids (Myzus persicae). Monitoring the signal signature in each plant-attacker combination showed that the kinetics of SA, JA, and ET production varies greatly in both quantity and timing. Analysis of global gene expression profiles demonstrated that the signal signature characteristic of each Arabidopsis-attacker combination is orchestrated into a surprisingly complex set of transcriptional alterations in which, in all cases, stress-related genes are overrepresented. Comparison of the transcript profiles revealed that consistent changes induced by pathogens and insects with very different modes of attack can show considerable overlap. Of all consistent changes induced by A. brassicicola, Pieris rapae, and F. occidentalis, more than 50% also were induced consistently by P. syringae. Notably, although these four attackers all stimulated JA biosynthesis, the majority of the changes in JA-responsive gene expression were attacker specific. All together, our study shows that SA, JA, and ET play a primary role in the orchestration of the plant’s defense response, but other regulatory mechanisms, such as pathway cross-talk or additional attacker-induced signals, eventually shape the highly complex attacker-specific defense response.

TL;DR: Helicobacter pylori, a chronic gastric pathogen of human beings, can be divided into seven populations and subpopulations with distinct geographical distributions.
Abstract: Helicobacter pylori, a chronic gastric pathogen of human beings, can be divided into seven populations and subpopulations with distinct geographical distributions. These modern populations derive their gene pools from ancestral populations that arose in Africa, Central Asia, and East Asia. Subsequent spread can be attributed to human migratory fluxes such as the prehistoric colonization of Polynesia and the Americas, the neolithic introduction of farming to Europe, the Bantu expansion within Africa, and the slave trade.
