Many bark beetles of the subfamily Scolytinae are the most economically important insect pests of coniferous forests worldwide.In this study, we sequenced the mitochondrial genomes of eight bark beetle species, including Dendroctonus micans, Orthotomicus erosus, Polygraphus poligraphus, Dryocoetes hectographus, Ips nitidus, Ips typographus, Ips sub
Investigation of characteristic hemodynamic parameters indicating thinning and thickening sites of cerebral aneurysms
Cellular and animal experiments and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) have revealed that mechanisms of the initiation, growth and rupture of a cerebral aneurysm are related to hemodynamics.By direct observation of a cerebral aneurysm during craniotomy, thinning or thickening sites can be found on the aneurysmal wall.The thinning site of a cerebral
Constrictions of emerging tourism entrepreneurship in the townships of South Africa.
This study contributes to the discourses that critique the underlying retrogressive constraints of tourism entrepreneurship for small, medium and micro enterprises as observed and revealed by scholarly research in the context of the South Africa (SA) townships.Although quite substantial research has been conducted on what limits tourism entrepreneu
Arachidonic Acid Metabolism Pathway Is Not Only Dominant in Metabolic Modulation but Associated With Phenotypic Variation After Acute Hypoxia Exposure
Background: The modulation of arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism pathway is identified in metabolic alterations after hypoxia exposure, but its biological function is controversial.We aimed at integrating plasma metabolomic and transcriptomic approaches to systematically explore the roles of the AA Carseat 0-4 metabolism pathway in response to acute
Borehole Geophysical Joint Inversion to Fully Evaluate Shaly Sandstone Formations
Side Chair Simultaneous inversion of sonic, density, and electrical resistivity borehole-derived well logs, has been addressed in literature in recent years.However, this problem is not broadly studied for dual-porosity sandstone formations.In addition, most authors presumed salinity and matrix properties as known parameters in their studies.We int
