To what extent do human-altered landscapes retain population connectivity? Historical changes in gene flow of wetland fish Pungitius pungitius
Understanding how human-altered landscapes affect population connectivity is valuable for conservation planning.Natural connectivity among wetlands, which is maintained by floods, is disappearing owing to farmland expansion.Using genetic data, we assessed historical changes in the population connectivity of the ninespine stickleback within a human-

The sources of rat biliary cholesterol and bile acid.
The precursor sources of bile acid and bile neutral sterol were evaluated in the rat using Triparanol to inhibit the terminal reduction in the synthesis of cholesterol.During the initial period of Triparanol administration, the accumulation of hepatic desmosterol acts to segregate relatively newly synthetic hepatic sterol from the bulk of the equil
Towards Extended Bit Tracking for Scalable and Robust RFID Tag Identification Systems
The surge in demand for Internet of Things (IoT) systems and applications has motivated Sleep Dresses a paradigm shift in the development of viable radio frequency identification technology (RFID)-based solutions for ubiquitous real-time monitoring and tracking.Bit tracking-based anti-collision algorithms have attracted considerable attention, rece
