Modulation of touch sensitivity in Caenorhabditis elegans
… in the C. elegans touch receptor neurons (TRNs) to understand how sensory systems are modulated and adapt to the environment. I find that the touch sensitivity in the TRNs is modulated by both mechanical and non-mechanical factors. The mechanical factors are transduced directly by a …

Structure and topology of transcriptional regulatory networks and their applications in bio-inspired networking
… (TFs), and segments of DNA, called genes. TRNs are known to exhibit functional robustness in the face of perturbation or mutation: a property that is proven to be a result of its underlying network topology. In this thesis, we first propose a three-tier topological characterization of TRN …

Microtubules, Acetylation, and MEC-3 Regulated Genes in C. Elegans Mechanosensations
… is mediated by the six Touch Receptor Neurons (TRNs). TRN cell fate is specified by the LIM-Homeodomain transcription factor MEC-3. Gene expression profiling has revealed a set of putatively MEC-3 dependant transcripts, which may represent the set of genes necessary to establish a TRN fate. I …

Clarification of basal relationships in Rubus (Rosaceae) and the origin of Rubus chamaemorus
… data from one additional chloroplast DNA region, trnS-trnG, and the singlecopy nuclear gene Granule-Bound Starch Synthase (GBSSI-1). Parsimony analyses of trnS-trnG sequences indicate a basal trichotomy, while R.chamaemorus is strongly supported as sister to R. pedatus. A combined cpDNA (trnS-trnG …

PERFORMANCE OF A ROBUST MULTIPLE-RING, MULTIPLE-TOKEN NETWORK
… studies of multiple-ring Token Ring Networks (TRNs) in which all nodes are connected to all rings [4,5] show that the packet transfer delay improves with the number of rings connected to each node. However, such multiple-ring TRNs are not economically feasible as the cost of the ring interface …

Working memory training and transcranial electrical brain stimulation
… or sham transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS). Training was associated with substantial gains on the training activities and on transfer measures of working memory with common processing and storage demands to the training tasks. tRNS did not enhance gains on trained or untrained …

Nested clade analysis of geographic structure in the morphologically variable Themeda triandra in South Africa
… triandra is explored. The trnF - trnC and psbD - trnS gene regions of the cpDNA were used to find 12 haplotypes found in 11 populations of T. triandra that encompass the species large distributional range. A haplotype tree was constructed that showed the relationship of the 11 haplotypes …

Einfluss verschiedener transkranieller Stimulationsverfahren auf die kortikale Exzitabilität

Phylogenetics of North American Psoraleeae (Leguminosae): Rates and Dates in a Recent, Rapid Radiation
… based on six chloroplast (trnD/T, trnL/F, trnS/G, trnK, matK, and rpoB-trnC) and two nuclear (ITS and waxy) DNA regions. This study explores approaches for coding insertion-deletion events (gaps) as phylogenetic characters using maximum parsimony and Bayesian Inference. Inclusion of gaps …

Testing the utility of the consortium for the barcoding of life's two 'agreed upon' plant DNA barcodes, matK and rbcL
… cpDNA regions (trnH-psbA, trnL-trnL-trnF, and trnS-trnG-trnG) at identifying species from the genus Prunus L. Upon the announcement by CBOL, additional sequence data was generated for matK and rbcL using the same Prunus taxa to determine how well these two regions would delimit species compared …

Phylogenetic relationships and the effects of edaphic heterogeneity on the distribution of Wiborgia (Fabaceae) in the Greater Cape Floristic region
… molecular markers (ITS, rpl32-trnL, rps16, trnS-trnG, and trnT-trnL) and the data were analysed using model based approaches (Maximum Likelihood, Bayesian inference). Wiborgia was well supported as monophyletic and sister to both Wiborgiella and Aspalathus, with Wiborgiella humilis well …

Evolution of the Neckeraceae (Bryopsida)
… sequence data from all genomes: plastid trnS-trnF and rpl16, nuclear ITS1 & 2 and mitochondrial nad5. Both parsimony (PAUP and PRAP2) and Bayesian statistics (MrBayes) were employed for phylogenetic reconstructions. In order to use the information provided by length mutations indels …
