Synthesis of aromatic peptide nucleic acids
… studies failed to indicate if these compounds hybridize to DNA or RNA. The second generation APNA monomers ( B ) were incorporated into PNA hexamers by solid phase peptide synthesis. The resulting PNA/APNA chimeras hybridize to both DNA and RNA by triple helix formation, however these complexes …

Tests of Reproductive Isolation Between the Fishes Fundulus heteroclitus and F. grandis
… killifishes Fundulus heteroclitus and F. grandis hybridize in a small region where their ranges overlap in coastal northeastern Florida. Hybrids of these species are rare in frequency within the contact zone, suggesting the presence of relatively strong reproductive isolation between these …

The Educational Experiences of Evangelical College Students: An Ethnography of Pedagogy, Literacy and Learning
… that InterVarsity helps students integrate and hybridize the supposedly polarized worldviews of the academy and the evangelical community. It concludes by suggesting that both evangelicals and academics would do well to engage student texts that fall outside the normal discourse of the …

Population Genetic and Hybridization Studies of Three Bornean Bird Species: Mountain Black-eye (Chlorocharis emiliae), White-rumped Shama (Copsychus malabaricus), and Oriental Magpie-robin (Copsychus saularis)
… subspecies, for the most part, do not hybridize and can be considered full species, whereas C. saularis subspecies hybridize extensively and should be retained as subspecies. The distinct population characteristics of the three species may be attributed to their different life styles. …

Technological Construction as Identity Formation: the High Speed Rail, Hybrid Culture and Engineering/Political Subjectivity in Taiwan
… projects, but later they began to localize and hybridize different foreign engineering skills and knowledge. This growing engineering culture of hybridity generated impacts on the development of Taiwan's identity politics. Some critical political leaders exploited their engineers' capability to …

Non-Unique oligonucleotide probe selection heuristics
… samples. The non-unique probes, designed to hybridize to at least one target, are used as alternatives when the design of unique probes is particularly difficult for the closely related target genes. The goal of the non-unique probe selection problem is to determine a smallest set of probes …

Studies on Host-Seeking Behavior and Differential Chemosensory Gene Expression in Above- and Below-ground Culex Pipiens
… of WNV. It exists as two bioforms which can hybridize in nature. I characterized the behavioral and genetic variation across eight populations collected from above- and below-ground habitats. Three of the five above-ground populations had hybrid ancestry in our single locus assay, whereas the …

A flexible infra-architectural system for a Hybrid Shanghai
… adequate living conditions, it is important to hybridize infrastructure with building stock that generates a fluid metropolitan culture.

Patterns of Population Structure and Hybridization within and between Populus trichocarpa and Populus balsamifera
… in temperate latitudes. Populus spp. frequently hybridize where their ranges overlap, and poplar hybrids are the most frequently planted genotypes for fiber production. To better understand the genomics of hybridization in Populus, we sampled and sequenced the genome of 574 poplar trees from six …

Morphometric discrimination among Betula nana, Betula pubescens and their hybrids using the shapeR package
… They both belong to the same genus and can hybridize. Since downy birch is tetraploid and dwarf birch is diploid, their hybrids become triploid. These hybrids can then backcross with either one of their parental species and thus transfer genes between the two species. This has resulted in a …

One- and Two-Dimensional sp2-Carbon Nanomaterials: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications
… this thesis is to synthesize, control, modify, hybridize, interface, understand, and apply one- and two-dimensional sp2-carbon nanomaterials. The materials include graphene (2D), carbon nanotubes (1D), and graphene nanoribbons (pseudo-1D); and their hybrids with each other. Other classes of …

Anti-cancer and anti-malarial 4-aminoquinoline derivatives : synthesis and solid-state investigations
… The strategy employed for this project was to hybridize chalcone moieties and their Mannich base derivatives with the 4-aminoquinoline moiety. This dual drug concept uses the basic structure of the chalcone scaffold, which has a wide range of known antimalarial and anticancer activities, and is …

Female Preference and Prezygotic Isolation In the Fundulus Notatus Species Complex
… <em>F. notatus</em> and <em>F. olivaceus</em> hybridize at varying rates across replicate contact zones. Using a free-choice design, behavioral trials were conducted with individuals from populations characterized by high and low hybridization rates, along with <em>F. notatus</em> crosses …

AN ANALYSIS OF LOBLOLLY PINE AND SHORTLEAF PINE HYBRIDIZATION USING CHROMATOGRAPHY AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS: A CASE STUDY IN EAST TEXAS
… contain three native pine species known to hybridize when site conditions are suitable. Due to increased gene flow from hybridization, quantifying hybridization spatially is a growing concern as southeastern United States pine forests are increasingly influenced by improved pine genetics and …

Genetic studies on the region downstream of the unc operon of Thiobacillus ferroxidans
… 33020. A probe made from the Tn7-like element hybridized to restriction fragments of identical size from both cosmid p818.1 and T ferrooxidans chromosomal DNA. The same probe hybridized to restricted chromosomal DNA from two other T ferrooxidans strains (ATCC 23270 and 19859). There were no …

Latitudinal Variation in Thermal Tolerance and Preference of <i>Fundulus notatus</i> and <i>F. olivaceus</i>: Implications for Temperature Mediated Reproductive Isolation
… Missouri – 37°N). These two species are known to hybridize throughout their sympatric distribution. Thus, I quantified hybridization under different thermal shifts in the Pearl and Sabine River drainages to examine the influence of temperature on hybridization between sympatric populations. …

The role of male-male aggressive signals in reproductive isolation between two hybridizing warblers
… because they are closely related species that hybridize frequently and produce fertile offspring, yet tend to mate assortatively and hold overlapping territories. They sing two different categories of song; Type-I song (thought to function for female mate choice) and Type-II song (specialized …

A platelet-mediated paradigm for the targeted delivery of microencapsulated, clot-augmenting biotherapeutics
… polyelectrolyte multilayer capsules that hybridize with the patient’s own platelets upon intravenous administration and rupture upon platelet contraction, enabling the targeted and controlled “burst” release of an encapsulated biotherapeutics. As platelets are the “first responders” in the …

Assessing the threat of non-native salmonids to Lahontan cutthroat trout recovery in a subalpine watershed
… O. mykiss and Lahontan cutthroat trout readily hybridize. Both rainbow trout and brown trout are found in Fallen Leaf Lake and the upper Glen Alpine Creek watershed which drains into the lake and therefore the presence of these species may represent significant threats to implementation of a …

Design, Structure and Applications of Collagen-Mimetic Peptides
… designer collagens that will preferentially hybridize to natural collagen-rich tissue. First a selective labeling scheme is used to thoroughly characterize a well-folded triple helical region, and then to determine the degree of localized unfolding at the N- and C-termini. Though terminal …
