PATTERNS OF PLUMERICIN CONCENTRATION IN LEAVES OF HIMATANTHUS TARAPOTENSIS (APOCYNACEAE) AND ITS INTERACTIONS WITH HERBIVORY IN THE PERUVIAN AMAZON

Patterns of Plumericin Concentration in Leaves of Himatanthus tarapotensis (Apocynaceae) and Its Interactions with Herbivory in the Peruvian Amazon

We explored the concentration patterns of the bioactive metabolite plumericin produced by Himatanthus tarapotensis (Apocynaceae) under different edaphic conditions and variations in rainfall intensity, as well as its potential role in the chemical defense against insect herbivores.Values of plumericin concentration from leaves were obtained t=hc2 b

Probabilistic programming in Python using PyMC3

Probabilistic programming allows for automatic Bayesian inference on user-defined probabilistic iphone 14 pro max price miami models.Recent advances in Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling allow inference on increasingly complex models.This class of MCMC, known as Hamiltonian Monte Carlo, requires gradient information which is often not readily

Co1 DNA supports conspecificity of Geomyphilus pierai and G. barrerai (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae, Aphodiinae) and is a good marker for their phylogeographic investigation in Mexican mountains

Members of Geomyphilus are associated with rodent burrows, such as pocket gophers and prairie dogs.In Mexico, they are found in the mountains of the Mexican Volcanic Belt and in Sierra Madre Oriental.Our study aims to initiate the exploration of the dispersal modes of Geomyphilus pierai and G.barrerai from burrows of pocket gophers.In order t=hc2 t

Fast Timing Techniques in FLIM Applications

Fluorescence lifetime whirlwind direct2 imaging (FLIM) is increasingly used in many scientific disciplines, including biological and medical research, materials science and chemistry.The fluorescence label is not only used to indicate its location, but also to probe its immediate environment, via its fluorescence lifetime.This allows FLIM to monito
