Symbiosis
… However, unlike the natural course of biological symbiosis, it is the designer which negotiates the level of influence each participant will bring to the union of an artificial coevolution. This thesis is an investigation into a valve system within the grey zones of these symbiotic relationships.

Symbiosis
This story begins in the late 1700's, a moment at which Western philosophy had decided that: Direct access to reality is impossible. Thinking can only talk about the way the human and the world correlate together. There is a crack in reality. Facts are given to us but their conditions of …

Urban-Industrial Symbiosis Formation and Development: Integration and Expansion of Existing Symbiosis Systems
… potential methods for achieving Urban-Industrial Symbiosis (UIS) through the existing cases of Industrial Symbiosis (IS) and Urban Symbiosis (US) in several regions to increase the efforts against the world’s sustainability challenges. While the topic of UIS has become a growing research interest …

The Evolution of Symbiosis in Communities
All organisms host a menagerie of symbionts. While harmful pathogens have historically held the attention of researchers, recent technological advances have revealed a cornucopia of benign, and even beneficial, symbionts. Observations that most organisms are party to a wide variety of harmless …

Characterisation of CCaMK in symbiosis signalling
… to determine if these were present during symbiosis at the RNA and protein level. Very low levels of splice variants were detected at the RNA level only, suggesting that they do not play a key role during symbiosis. A multi-faceted study is therefore presented, and this provides deeper …

Improve Energy Efficiency Through Industrial Symbiosis
… Efficiency (EE) improvement through Industrial Symbiosis (IS) for the iron and steel industry based on the study of existing available practices and the status of energy management in Chinese iron and steel enterprises. This PhD seeks to integrate, extend and link knowledge on areas of IS and EE …

Transport processes in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
… key element of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis. The fungus improves the plant’s uptake of mineral nutrients, mainly phosphate, and water, while the plant provides the fungus with photosynthetically assimilated carbohydrates. Still, the knowledge about the mechanisms of the nutrient …

The Molecular Biology of Lichen Symbiosis and Development
… the stage in which to begin looking for lichen symbiosis specific genes, and then examine mycobiont and photobiont genes that, when compared to the aposymbiotic state, are upregulated in the symbiotic state. Using the symbiosis between the mycobiont <italic>Cladonia grayi</italic> and the …

Taxonomy and Symbiosis in Associations of Physciaceae and Trebouxia
Die Familie der Physciaceen (lichenisierte Ascomyceten) und deren kompatible Photobionten wurden mit Hilfe von nrITS-Sequenzierungen untersucht. Es wurde Frisch- oder Herbarmaterial bearbeitet, das weltweit gesammelt worden war und 23 der 27 Physciaceengattngen repräsentierte. Die Sequenzdaten …

Genetic and Environmental Modulation of the Chickpea - Mesorhizobium Symbiosis
… growth and defence, and chickpea-Mesorhizobium symbiosis. The primary objective of this thesis is to investigate the effects of genetic and environmental factors, and their interactions, on plant traits related to growth, nitrogen fixation and responses to herbivory. A quantitative review was …

The sensory mediation of symbiosis between hyperiid amphipods and salps
Hyperiid amphipods are open ocean crustaceans which use gelatinous planktonic animals for food, shelter, and brooding space for their offspring. These associations involve varying degrees of host specificity; and there are few obvious correlations between gross morphology of the amphipods and the …

A High-Precision Bioelectric Neural Interface Toward Human-Machine Symbiosis
Objective. A symbiosis of human intelligence and artificial intelligence (AI) cannot be achieved without establishing an intuitive, bidirectional, and high-bandwidth information conduit between the minds and machines. Approach. Here we focus on developing high-precision bioelectronics underlying a …

Harnessing the genetic potential for arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in rice
… been recognised to form a mutually beneficial symbiosis with over 80% of land plants present today. The symbiosis provides an integral link to mineral nutrients in the soil (Bago et al., 2000; Jakobsen & Rosendahl, 1990; Smith & Read, 2008) and this has led to increasing interest in the …

Soils, Symbiosis, and Succession: Eco-centric Care in Eastern Ontario
… entanglements of interspecies living together as symbiosis. Symbiosis involves relatedness through living together in which each entity is shaped in interaction with each other. In such a view on relatedness, eco-centrics read Ontario’s colonial history, conventional farming and gardening …
