We infer phylogenetic relationships among isopod species of the genus Orthometopon distributed in the Greek area, comparing partial mitochondrial DNA sequences for cytochrome oxidase I (COI). All phylogenetic analyses ...

The phylogeny of Greek populations of the terrestrial isopod genus Ligidium is reconstructed based on three mtDNA gene segments: 12S rRNA, 16S rRNA and COI. Two widely distributed European species, as well as three outgroups ...

Triple-negative breast cancers comprise a heterogeneous group of tumors with varying prognosis, but the majority are of high histological grade and have a poor prognosis. Although there is considerable overlap between ...

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are composed of various molecular subtypes, with differing prognostic and predictive relevance. Previously, tumors lacking mutations in the KIT and PDGFRA genes have been designated ...

Two Mn70 torus-like molecules have been obtained from the alcoholysis in EtOH and 2-ClC2H4OH of [Mn12O12(O2CMe)16(H2O)4]·4H2O·2MeCO2H (1) in the presence of NBun4MnO4 and an excess of MeCO2H. The reaction in EtOH afforded ...

In spatial statistics the data typically consist of measurements of some quantity at irregularly scattered locations

A general method of tail index estimation for heavy-tailed time series, based on examining the growth rate of the logged sample second moment of the data was proposed and studied in Meerschaert and Scheffler (1998. A simple ...

We present results on the lower moments of the nucleon generalized parton distributions within lattice QCD using two dynamical flavors of degenerate twisted mass fermions. Our simulations are performed on lattices with ...

The momentum distributions of finite nuclei are calculated using Monte Carlo techniques for a one-dimensional model having a two-body potential with a repulsive core and a long-range attraction. The results obtained in ...
