The glucosinolate-myrosinase system found in plants of the Brassicales order is one of the best studied plant chemical defenses. Glucosinolates and their hydrolytic enzymes, myrosinases, are stored in separate compartments in the intact plant tissue. Upon tissue disruption, bioactivation of glucosinolates is initiated, i.e. myrosinases get access to their glucosinolate substrates, and glucosinolat
This paper extends the concept of weak renegotiation-proof equilibrium (WRP) to allow for costly renegotiation and shows that even small renegotiation costs can have dramatic effects on the set of equilibria. More specifically, the paper analyzes the infinitely repeated Bertrand game. It is shown that for every level of renegotiation cost, there exists a discount factor such that any collusive pro
Arriesjöns strövområde var mellan 1906 och1998 en täkt för grus, sand och lera. Innan dess var området en ca 20 m hög platåliknande kulle som en isälv i den senaste inlandsisen lämnat efter sig. I kullens sediment har hittats mammutrester, renben och torv med växtrester som vittnar om ett annat klimat och en annorlunda miljö. Vad sedimenten består av och hur de hamnat där har geologer beskrivit, t
This article studies contemporary Australian copyright and contrasts this to a large-scale online survey on file sharing in order to analyse the seemingly parallel and non-compliant legal and social norms that they represent. Furthermore, a selection of 3,575 Australian respondents to an online survey is compared to a large scale near global group of over 96,000 respondents, allowing determining d
Background: Caldicellulosiruptor species have gained a reputation as being among the best microorganisms to produce hydrogen (H2) due to possession of a combination of appropriate features. However, due to their low volumetric H2 productivities (QH2), Caldicellulosiruptor species cannot be considered for any viable biohydrogen production process yet. In this study, we evaluate biofilm forming pote
Using a novel approach to assess attachment to therapist from patient narratives (Patient Attachment to Therapist Rating Scale; PAT-RS), we investigated the relationships between secure attachment to therapist, patient-rated alliance, and outcome in a sample of 70 young adults treated with psychoanalytic psychotherapy. A series of linear mixed-effects models, controlling for length of therapy and
Abstract in UndeterminedSince the second half of the nineteenth century Scandinavian caves have been studied from various angles, to answer questions about their location, dating, and use. There was intensive archaeological interest in caves in the nineteenth century and at the start of the twentieth century. This has continued without interruption in Norway. There has been much less archaeologica
PURPOSE: Professional electricians are highly subjected to electrical injuries. Previous studies describing symptoms after electrical injury have not included people with less severe initial injuries. The purpose of the present study was to describe symptoms at different time points after electrical injury, the impact of "no-let-go" phenomenon and different electrical potential [high voltage (HV)
A solid phase extraction (SPE) technique has been developed for the quantitative determination of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in aqueous samples. The SPE technique involved extraction of PAHs from a 100 mL sample containing 10 % methanol as a modifier onto C-18 cartridges. 40 % methanol in water was used as conditioning solvent, and 3 mL acetone:THF (1:1) as eluting solvent. After eluting, th
Friluftsmuseer som Kulturen erbjuder sina besökare rika upplevelser av det förflutna genom de bevarade kulturmiljöerna som har flyttats in och levandegjorts. Museernas kulturmiljöer kan ibland uppfattas som oföränderliga, ja rentav tidlösa där de står år ut och år in, och där den enda förändring som tycks uppenbar är tidens tand som gnager på timret. Syftet med denna text är att utforska tradition
We have performed a thermodynamic assessment of the As-Zn and As-Ga-Zn systems. The systems are assessed based on the CALPHAD method and using available first principles and experimental data. Using the optimized set of parameters found in this work, the calculated As-Zn binary phase diagram, isoplethal sections and the monovariants lines of the As-Ga-Zn ternary system are presented. The compariso
Study of film reception processes and Ingmar Bergman's film Shame (1968).
Purpose: We studied whether TRPA1 agonists interact with sensory and inflammatory signals to relax human urethral smooth muscle. Materials and Methods: Urethral specimens were obtained perioperatively from 19 patients, and prepared for immunohistochemistry and functional experiments. The effects of allyl isothiocyanate, cinnamaldehyde and NaHS were studied in phenylephrine activated preparations c
This report of the BOOST2012 workshop presents the results of four working groups that studied key aspects of jet substructure. We discuss the potential of first-principle QCD calculations to yield a precise description of the substructure of jets and study the accuracy of state-of-the-art Monte Carlo tools. Limitations of the experiments' ability to resolve substructure are evaluated, with a focu
We monitored the kinetics of grazer-induced responses in the marine dinoflagellate Alexandrium tamarense. Chemical cues from each of three calanoid copepods (Calanus sp., Centropages typicus, and Acartia tonsa) induced increased toxicity and suppressed chain formation in A. tamarense. Both chemical and morphological responses augmented over 3 d. Toxicity subsequently averaged 299% higher than cont
Motor symptoms are currently considered the first clinical hallmark of Parkinson’s disease (PD). They develop as a result of dopamine loss in the striatum, subsequent to the progressive neurodegeneration of dopamin- ergic neurons in the substantia nigra. However, non-motor symptoms are frequent in PD patients and can greatly affect their quality of life. Among these, cognitive impairment affects p
